If you’re running the optional 36-gallon fuel tank in your Ford XW or XY Falcon, securing the spare wheel properly requires the correct mounting hardware. The Spare Wheel Hold Down Bracket Kit is specifically engineered to suit the altered boot floor layout found in these models, ensuring the spare tyre stays firmly in place without shifting or rattling.
Heavy-Duty Floor Mounting Bracket: Stamped steel base plate designed for direct attachment to the floor sheet metal.
J-Hook Bolt With Large Wing Nut: Threaded mounting rod with continuous J-bend hook for secure anchoring, paired with an oversized wing nut for firm clamping and easy manual tightening.
Angled Tubular Extension Sleeve: Hollow metal guide collar that provides the correct alignment and height offset to clear the taller floor contours created by the extended fuel tank.
Prevents Movement And Rattling: Keeps the spare wheel stable during vehicle operation, reducing vibration and unwanted noise.
Installation Requirement: The base bracket plate requires direct physical attachment to the vehicle’s floor sheet metal pan.
Whether you’re restoring your Falcon to factory specification or ensuring the spare is mounted safely and correctly, the Spare Wheel Hold Down Bracket Kit provides the proper hardware solution for 36-gallon tank-equipped Falcon GT models.
