Right now I have it on the rack. It is a PITA to get down, and takes up all of my room if I want to carry my kayaks & surfboards, or make a quick run to Lowe's to pick up some plywood. I would LOVE to be able to put it on the rear like my Disco, but that doesn't seem to be an option. The cargo spare area has been converted to tool storage, so that is out, too.
I have always liked the look of the series models with the tires on the hoods. The classic's hood is recessed in the middle unlike the series in the picture above. The visibility wasn't really that bad. I am getting bigger tires (245/75) for Christmas (Santa Please!) and want to see if anyone knows if they will fit on the carriers from a series, or will I have to fabricate something.
Also, does anyone know where I could get a series tire carrier? I imagine Rovers North, but didn't see any there. I would like a used one.
dmcfarlane: What is a side mount?
Thanks
