I lofted my rear bar up to standard height. Feeling very proud of myself, I went to slam the door shut and it bounced straight off the bar. Haha.

So how do I fix this issue?

Cheers

my carrier was modified to accommodate a 32" tall tyre, to do this flat bar was welded to the mounting face positioning it about 3" further up. please excuse the average looking welds... they were done with a stick welder that was about 300 years old!!! it is welded on the inside & outside also plug welded where the original bolt holes were.

once modded, clearance had to be made for the wiper arm.

or if you have professional welding pigeons like fatzook has it will look like this.

my 235/75 r15 muddy fits perfectly, just rests nicely on the bumper as a little more support, so help the hinges

could just air the tyre down slightly, shouldnt need much, 30" fits perfectly

I tried that, let the tyre down to 4psi, no deal :(

I'll just get the bracket welded higher, I want to fit 32"s or 33"s for the bush later on anyway.

Thanks guys

I just lifted it up higher, redrilled, put plates on inside of door,
and cut a bit out for the wiper arm.
I can't weld to save my life :)
