It's legal to not carry a spare, but if you have a blow out it's an inconvenience not having one with you.

31" on the original spare mount will eventually f#$k your hinges. So getting a separate 'sway away' bar made up for the rear is your best option.

i think you will have trouble with the back door cracking or falling of after a while, you could do some thing like wat sheep did http://www.auszookers.com/index.php?nam ... pic&t=3448

or iv seen people mount then in the back and build a false floor over then or you could make a rear bar with a swing out tyre carrier.

cheers scott

I have had a 31" on a 15x7 steel rim on my back door for 9 years and still no rattles. It is bolted with the dish to the outside to keep the weight closer to the door.
