ARB’s range of rear bars, rear wheel carriers and jerry can holders provide additional functionality for your 4×4 while delivering high-quality vehicle protection.
4WDs with the spare tyre mounted on the back door can suffer from unnecessary door assembly stress, while a spare wheel located underneath a vehicle can be difficult to access, be more prone to damage and may affect ground clearance when driving off-road. Both of these mounting methods can also be unsuitable if you need a larger tyre size for your vehicle.
Our range of rear bars and wheel carriers relocate the spare tyre onto the bumper assembly via a swing-out carrier. This reduces the risk of damaging your spare tyre while giving you excellent access to your spare – perfect for quick repairs in the great outdoors.

The carriers operate on gas struts that are sufficient to hold each side open in most situations. However, if the vehicle is on an extreme side angle, the locking pin can be engaged to ensure each side remains open.
The wheel carrier and jerry can holder is easy to operate, and can be opened by pulling a lever. To close, you simply shut it as you would a car door.
The ARB rear bar system ensures quick, convenient access to the rear of your vehicle.
Not all vehicles require tyre carriers and jerry can holders. A rear bar alone provides greatly improved protection, versatility and vehicle access. Vehicle specific design ensures excellent ground clearance and departure angles along with a stylish and adventurous look for your 4×4.
Manufactured from steel for maximum strength, an ARB rear bar features a centre recess to accommodate various sized tyres (mounted on factory tyre carriers) along with dual Hi-Lift jacking points and a low slip tread to facilitate easy access to both the roof and inside of the vehicle.
4×4 spare wheel carriers reduce unnecessary stress on your vehicle’s back door assembly, which is common when the spare tyre is mounted on the back door. They make it easier to access your spare wheel and reduce the risk of damage compared to mounting it underneath the vehicle. Rear wheel carriers also improve ground clearance for off-road driving and can accommodate larger tyre sizes, giving you more flexibility.
The ARB rear tyre carrier can accommodate twin 33” tyres or a single 35” tyre on most vehicles.
The spare tyre is secured to the stud plate with a lock nut, which includes the provision to fit a padlock. The carriers are also mounted via dual shear pivots for enhanced strength and durability.
