Hello people,
This might be an obvious one...(I have looked through techie stuff!)....but I have a small sized spare wheel under my Bongo (prob the original from Japan). Can I take the small wheel off and replace it with a full size one with no problems? I mean will it fit onto the existing system, or would I have to modify the winch-type system in any way? I'm a bit unhappy with the little wheel and would prefer a full sized one for our travels.
Thanks a million

Re: Spare Wheel
No mod needed.. But it will jut slightly below the rear bumper line...
Cheaper by comparison to a race horse...

Re: Spare Wheel
Get rid of the wheelbarrow tyre asap 
it's probably years out of date & is only rated to do 50 miles at 50mph or sumat daft like that when it's new. Proper size one fits no problem. Have alook in stuff wanted/swaps section there may be some available.

By chance there's one up for grabs now, PM Splitpin.

Re: Spare Wheel
If you are putting a full size spare there, which size would you recommend as the front and back are different?

Re: Spare Wheel
Don't really matter its only a spare, unless your going to use it permanently.standard 15 inch steel bongo wheel is ok.dext924 wrote:If you are putting a full size spare there, which size would you recommend as the front and back are different?
as for front and back being different, most change to the same size all round when the time comes to get new tyres.
Lost without my Bongo.
