Hi all
I am looking to get a swing away wheel carrier for my 90, but my crossmember is non standard, its a black sheep offroad one.
I understand that one of the brackets fits in to the existing holes in the crossmember, and then you set the rest up from here, drilling holes in the body capping etc.
As my crossmember has no holes, I am not sure where I would start, and how crucial the holes need to be. I am looking at the Bearmach BA132.

Anyone had this problem

Thanks all
Ray

Hi my carrier locates on the bolts holding tub to cross member.
As I think they all do you should have these.

I've got a press brake rear cross member without any holes and a swing away wheel carrier.
If I remember correctly the top bracket is fixed through an existing rivet, ie you drill through the rivet.
Line up the top, mark out the bottom and drill the ctossmember.
