75 and ZT Spacesaver Spare Wheel question.

Abott10 · 31st October 2016, 20:07

Will the Spacesaver fit over all four hubs and discs or is a swap necessary ?

TIA.

Space saver won't fit the 190 bigger front brakes but will fit all rears and lesser models at the front as well

I think that it could be made to fit even a V8 in an emergency by bolting it on backwards. I would certainly try if needed!

Axle stands would be less embarrasing!

Wouldn't be the first time it has been tried.

Given the choice of these two I prefer the unions though.
