Custom Swing out Tire Carrier - MID Europe Overland Bound Joined Project

Hi guys ! I wanted to share something with you today.
Last month I drove 600km to the Netherlands to meet (again !) @Robert OB 33/48 from Dragonriders Travel in order to build something together !
And since we are both Overland Bound members, THIS turns out to be the FIRST MID EUROPE OVERLAND BOUND JOINED PROJECT !
And we are both really happy with it !
We had a really good times and I learned a lot from him and his incredible mecanics skills !
So as usual, I've made a video of this week-end, so you can enjoy it aswell





So, it all started from here ...


It was a lot of cutting !


Welding ...


Even more welding !




Drlling !


Test fitting


All of this, under the watch of Skai :smileycat:


Robert really knows what he's doing in his workshop ! It was a very good experience to see him and help him building this !
It's crazy how two minds can think differently sometimes ... He thought about some stuff I didn't even imagine.


And after some finishes and paint, here is the final result ! AWESOME ! :hearteyes:


I really hope you enjoyed the videos and the pictures, and as you can see, the OB scene is slowly but surely moving here in EUROPE !
I wanted to THANKS again Robert for this incredible weekend we spent together working on this beautiful project !
See you soon my friend !​

My first swingarm. Especially for the Frontera, see the hinge on the right, it is a axle stubb.
But this one could swing out with the door.

So, I think I came a long way from there to the one I made with Jordan.
