Redcat Gen 8 Spare Tire Carrier

thingiverse

Spare tire carrier for the Redcat Gen 8. I included two versions of the carrier, one with a hex to fit the stock wheels and another that will allow you to bolt a Bead Lock wheel without the center hub for a more scale appearance. I also included two mounts for Jerry Cans as well. The handle will be printed separately and glued in place after printing. The Jerry Can mount attaches with one 2 x 4mm screw on each side. You need to drill mounting holes through the rear bumper for the spare tire carrier to accept a 3 x 20-22mm button head screw. The spare tire carrier allows you to mount your Jerry Cans and Hi-Lift Jack out of the way, giving a very scale appearance to the Gen 8. You will need a long 4mm screw to mount the stock wheel, as well as two 3 x 8mm screws to mount a Bead Lock wheel. Strongly recommend printing the Carrier in the strongest material you can print. PLA holds up but is not optimal. I printed the carrier in CF and it is very tough. 100 percent infill is a must for strength.
