    Here's a product I've been working on for longer than I care to remember, some /most will know my back is buggered
    and I thought What would happen I had a flat out in the Simpson desert, How would I get the tyre/rim down off my roof rack let alone put it back up.
    Its a long way to any hospital and driving out if you "did your back" would be very painfull,
    Hopefully this will solve all problems, Bolted it to my home made roof rack today to trial it and it worked a treat.
    It easily lifted my spare up onto the roof rack. very happy with that, so afew more tweaks here and there and it'll be go to go.
    I'll be talking to the laser cutter to incorperate a weak point so a rim/tyre combo or 50kg is the max it will lift.
    ATM total weight is 15KG but I think I can get it down to just over 10kg with ease.
