One of the reasons that these are hard to find is that there are very, very few that are designed to work with a tailgate rather than a rear door. I only know fo two, the Nakatanenga offering, and the Allisport offering, both of which are rather pricey. If you want one that fits to the crossmember and will work without modification with an Ifor Williams canopy, the number drops even further, to zero. Both of the above will foul the rear flap of the canopy and prevent it from opening, although it isn't hard to modify the Allisport one so that it works. My Allisport carrier was let down by the shocking quality of the powder-coat, but to be fair it was an early one when they were still Sonic3D carriers, not Allisport, so the coating may be better now (it could hardly be worse).

It is about time that someone offered a crossmember mounted swing away carrier for pickups that doesnt foul the rear flap, doesn't foul the towing hitch, and doesn't rust. It wouldn't be difficult.

The exact reason I now have the safari equip wheel carrier. Also many holes in the rear tub so I’m now committed.

I did think about having the ifor canopy hinge at the bottom as you lifted it to clear the spare wheel but it seemed like a lot of faff. Although now I’m looking at re coating the carrier (and sliders, also safari equip) as the powder coat has flakes off in many places. Relieving the galv undercoat. So it won’t rust.
