Spare tire cover

Post by NO_H2O »

I picked up a spare cover at Summit and dropped it of at the graphics shop we use. My wife wanted the Pinz logo on it. I had to pay a bit for the initial art work but it is now on hand in thier computer.

I've always thought that those tire covers looked sharp but how do you hold that heavy door open with the chain covered too?

Trading function for fashion?! But seriously, I load folks in and out of the trucks all day so giving them any opportunity to cut their fingers off to me, is not a liability that I want to assume. It would be nice to have that advertising/logo space on the back of the trucks though!

I'm sure I can design another gust-lock for the door. Give me some time and I will have a cool piece on there to hold it open.

Run the chain between the tire and the door. Works for those of use who have pimped rims :D

NO_H2O, It would be cool if you could come up with a hydrolic opener on the inside, or a slide lock like the fold up table has.

I thought one of these could work. Made to hold open a Jeep Tailgate.

I'd double-up on those for the heavy Pinz door! The tire will stop when it hits the metal bumper on the body. It's the swinging back closed part that needss to be bomber.

I has thinking of a simple folding "gust lock". If i had the time I could come up with a more "High Tech" model but time is something I don't have much of right now.
