Y spare tire carrier and 2849D

Post by DHort » Sun Jul 27, 2025 3:45 pm

Does they bottom bolt of the Y carrier use 2849D. If it does or does not, what should it look like?
What holds the tire in place on the bottom of the Y carrier? picture would help. Thank you.

Here you are:

And you can add a padlock to the clamp to prevent rim and tire theft

He was asking about a "Y" carrier - mine has just has a stud - either goes into the rim tab or into one of the wire wheel holes.

So 2839D and a Y carrier have nothing in common.
