Toolkit Wheel Winch

Post by BongoDownUnder » Sun Jan 17, 2021 6:44 am

Can some kindly Bongo owner please measure the wheel lowering winch rod? I need to know the length, diameter and where to place the ‘T’ for the socket end.

I’ve bought a Bongo with no toolkit included. The smugglers hatch has a jack only, no tools, and no pole to lower the spare wheel. I need to fix this before I go anywhere remote (again). I can fabricate one myself but will need the dimensions. Can anyone help [-o<
Regards

I'll pop out and measure it once I've drunk my tea, but have you put your hand in the top of the locker?

It's easily missed as it's clipped at the top. :wink:
