Steslater Posted March 31, 2018 Share Posted March 31, 2018 Hi all, last week I got my hands on a 2014 Borneo connect and I love it. What I don't love is the lack of a spare wheel. I've found the kit and the wheel and that's not expensive. What I can't find is an instruction or estimated cost for the fitting of the spare wheel system. Has anyone sorted this before themselves?

microdon Posted April 5, 2018 Share Posted April 5, 2018 Have a look at https://www.fordownersclub.com/forums/topic/98779-hurdyshcurdy/?tab=comments#comment-704267 I cant find anything online about anyone having done this. Where did you manage to get the parts from? My dealer quoted €500 just for parts! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
microdon Posted April 5, 2018 Share Posted April 5, 2018 Just uploaded the parts diagrams which might help with figuring out how it goes together Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maccer Posted April 1, 2020 Share Posted April 1, 2020 Not sure if this is helpful but I figured out a much simpler to my lack of spare wheel on my tourneo connect: Buy a ford space saver spare (with correct 5 x 108pcd) along with ford Jack & wheel brace (eBay about £30) Get a M8 x 100mm screw & locknut plus 2 large washers, install into the slotted hole in the well with thread downwards. No need to jack up vehicle, plenty of room to crawl underneath Get a 100mm laser cut disc 6mm thick and a 7 lobe M8 female knob (£4 & £3 off ebay) Put the spare wheel. inside facing down, centrally over the m8 threaded screw (I used a jack to hold it up) Put the disc and lobed knob onto the threaded screw & tighten up hand tight to hold the spare up Done! Admittedly you will get your trousers dirty when you want to release the spare BUT you will get home Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
