DO NOT BUY 2002-2006 Sprinter

2 of 3 bolts aligned now I have a weird wheel dangling from the back of my van as I've already drilled a big hole in my door to fix this crap to mount.

Pros
  • Fingers crossed
Cons
  • Update available

Missing parts in exterior accessories

This came with no hardware or instructions. Better buy it directly from the source. Even after purchasing the hardware that I assumed would fit, I find that a metal base plate is usually included as well.

Pros
  • Fits me perfectly
Cons
  • Faulty

Don't buy it from exterior accessories

This is complete rubbish. The 2006 Dodge Sprinter 2500 doesn't fit at all. Tire bolts are 1 inch off! bottom screw. After spending an hour with no instructions and drilling a hole in the back door, now I need to get it out.

Pros
  • Tough finish
Cons
  • Poor kit

Not stainless steel as advertised

Screws, nuts and washers supplied are plated, not stainless steel. They will rust over time. I went and bought stainless fittings. The listing states that the spare wheel holder is made of powder coated stainless steel. This is not stainless steel as the magnet will stick strongly. This is the best sprint tire available.

Pros
  • Useful beyond its intended purpose
Cons
  • Protection

Pretty restless

Works. Albeit rather cheeky. Doesn't come with hardware or instructions and when I called them they said I had to call Revain about it. In the end I had to buy myself. Even then, it's built pretty crappy. When I put my wheel on it started to flex the mounting plate with very little effort. There really are no other options, but this opinion is rather weak. I would suggest a redesign.

Pros
  • Inspires confidence
Cons
  • Requires socket

Easy to install even without instructions (no

Easy to install even without instructions (no instructions, couldn't find them online what are those little spiked washers?) Biggest downside is the wheel mounting hardware, no way to attach those Bolts with a sled that goes through the lug holes, so if you lift a 40lb bike to chest height and put it on the bolts, they'll all come out everywhere. Check out another review that documents this and rightly suggests it Add lock nuts on the bolts to keep them in place when mounting and dismountingโ€ฆ

Pros
  • quality construction
Cons
  • pisses me off

Great Hazardous Garbage Tire Holder

Assured fit and functionality after needlessly complicated installation plus a trip for rust-free hardware. 3 main problems: * No instructions. Information about the user on the internet helped, but why not include at least a link to the PDF in the ad? * All included nuts, bolts and washers rust - why aren't they stainless steel? * Nuts DO NOT have nylocks and lock washers were NOT supplied for the nuts holding the 45# tire and wheel. Pro Tips: 1) Spend $20 at Lowe's to replace ALL theโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Best
Cons
  • Ugly Packaging
