| Mantec Spare Wheel Carrier query (drilling) | |
Hi all,
Was thinking about picking up a Mantec wheel holder, just curious how much drilling is involved? I can see that there has to be some in order to attach the upper arm to the body... do the bolts on the bottom arm/support just use the pre-existing holes in the crossmember?
I'm OK with doing some things, but drilling into my auto is something that is a wee bit unnerving.

There's only 2 holes to drill at the top, through the capping on the top of the tub. Even these are whe the existing pop rivets are located so pretty simple. The bolts at the bottom and for the door are through existing holes in the crossmember and door. |
