Door strengthening brackets for the rear door, reinforcing the door frame where a rear-mounted spare wheel carrier is bolted on.

The brackets stiffen the door structure at the carrier mounting points so that the weight of the wheel and carrier is spread across the door frame rather than concentrated at the fixings, reducing distortion of the door skin and load on the hinges. Steel construction.

Intended for use with the rear doors LR509AP and LR527.

Frequently asked questions

What do the door strengthening brackets do?
The door strengthening brackets reinforce the rear door frame where a rear-mounted spare wheel carrier bolts on. They spread the weight of the wheel and carrier across the door frame rather than concentrating it at the fixings, reducing distortion of the door skin and load on the hinges. Steel construction.
Which Land Rover do these brackets fit?
These brackets fit the Defender 1983-2002 rear door, where a spare wheel carrier is mounted on the door. They're intended to work with the rear doors LR509AP and LR527. Cross-reference codes MXC7226 and MXC7227 apply to this bracket set.
Do I need strengthening brackets with a door-mounted spare wheel?
If you're mounting a spare wheel and carrier on the rear door, these brackets are worth fitting. A door-mounted wheel puts significant weight on the door skin and hinges, and the brackets spread that load across the frame to prevent the door dropping or the skin distorting over time.
