this weekend i have taken the wheels off my coachman single axle, to get new tyres fitted save taking the van in to tyre depot and trying to find a place to park it, thought i would use the spare on one side and axle stands on the other, but trying to get the spare off the under chassis carrier was a pain if the van did get a punture then i dont think i would be able to remove the spare without a trolley jack, also because its been under the van everything was stiff to undo first unscrew the knurled knob by hand then withdraw the carrier which is stuck due to age 8 years then inside the wheel there are two studs that needed a socket holding wheel down then struggle trying to slide wheel out from underneath, i would hate to have to do this in the dark on a motoway once tyres replaced i will grease all threads before putting spare back good job we got breakdown cover.
