Built it myself,this is the third version.First one was bushed and flogged out.Second one was good swinging on bearings but after fitting a TREG hitch for camper trailer,it snagged the hitch.Third one is a gull wing version to clear the hitch.Any way here it is

Hey mate very nice runner!!!

How is your spare wheel carrier mounted? Have you got any pics of the mounting?

Also are you running an aftermarket rear bar or standard?

I'm toying with the idea of building my own rear bar and carrier for my runner and would love to see how some others have done it.

cheers

Nice truck mate, always good to see a well sorted runner, likewise about the wheel carrier i've often thought about building one.

The carrier is mounted to the tow bar,swiveling one end and locking the other(you can see in the picture that it also sits on a "seat" at the locking end to support it).
The tow bar is a Hayman Reese.

What springs do you have in the back to give 3' lift? I ahve put ball joint spacers in the front of mine and need to lift the back up a touch.

Bond

Its got OME 900DS springs which give about 60mm lift.Then Ive got 30mm spring spacers(80 Series).I also use Polyair Bags to hold height when the camper trailers on but they only run about 10psi now.There is also 30mm spacers under the Air Bags due to the coil spacers.

Game over,the old girl makes way for a 100 series GXL Deisel 2003.
Spent the last couple of days stripping all the extras off.
Now for the new build up.
