I have been doing some research with Swift and Fiat regarding a spare wheel. Having looked under the vehicle there appears to be cut out space by the grey water tank to accommodate a spare wheel. My only concern is how to access it from removal. Does anyone have any experience of this, or can offer some advice or suggestions. ie jack points and is it safe to put a spare there ??

Thanks,

Regards,

Arthur

Morning Arthur.My Bolero was fitted with a spare wheel from new.
It`s not easy to change,especially on soft ground .The spare is lifted and lowered with a cable fitted to the center of the wheel .To get the spare from under the MH,there is a need to crawl under slightly and drag out .
I had a puncture last year at the Peterborough show,had to call out the RAC ,who struggled to change it.
Also the spare is fitted to the offside.Would not advise doing yourself on a mainroad.

I fitted my Bolero 630EW with the same arrangement as Billywiz and Lifestyle.

This link http://www.fiatcamper.com/handling.php will take you to a Fiat page. If you click on the right hand thumbnail picture you get an animation of how the spare wheel system works.
