TomoHawk Posted May 5, 2003 Share Posted May 5, 2003 I have a full-size spare in the back of my '78 280Z on a ZX rim instead of the mini-thing, and I'm interested in suggestions on how to strap the sucker down. I thought of using the stock screw-thing, which would have to be lengthened, but it wouldn't look nice or I couldn't position the wheel to have the screw go throught a lug hole in the wheel. Any ideas for a strap system? Like a winching hold down strap that looks pretty? I was thinking it would go from the screw bracket through the wheel, over the top to hook onto the bracket where the jack was. Jack & tool bag is now in the spare wheel tub. I just had a thought of cutting that entire wheel hub out. It would flatten the back of the floor & raise the gas tank. Would that work? Too much work too fool with?

Guest dustyz Posted May 6, 2003 Share Posted May 6, 2003 well this kinda has to do with the topic but i was thinking why not put a Speaker with a custom *as in you build it your self * box that the spare will slide right over that way no more Sliding around and it looks cool will protect the speaker and you use the space that it would take up anyway sorry if to off topic just a thought Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
denny411 Posted May 6, 2003 Share Posted May 6, 2003 How about a Continental kit? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gene_w Posted May 7, 2003 Share Posted May 7, 2003 How about a Continental kit? Now that's just wrong! Gene Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomoHawk Posted May 10, 2003 Author Share Posted May 10, 2003 GTOs didn't have 'continental kits,' so mine won't. Also, the speakers are in the side panels, behind the door and there isn't a need for an extra one of those. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
