dazbuilt Member 11 Member For: 12y 3m 14d Gender: Male Location: canberra Posted 14/06/14 09:34 PM Share Posted 14/06/14 09:34 PM Had to get a spare dark argent to fit over my new brembos but the bracket on the cable that holds the spare up under the ute ( fg) wont fit through the centre hole of the wheel so no go. I know fpv carries a full size spare so do they have a different winch set up or what ?

Are you sure you cant manipulate it some how.

Bracket fits through sideways but then cable on bracket wont allow it to pass through. Not even close. Thought about grinding, modifying bracket but dont want to risk it coming off at speed. Would be really bad! Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/88511-fpv-spare-for-brembos-wont-fit-under-ute/#findComment-1478573 Share on other sites More sharing options...
