rooster63 Posted February 2, 2023 Posted February 2, 2023 Anybody any idea what these pieces of metal might be for? They look brand new. Base van is a Fiat Ducato converted by Timberland. I assume I don’t need to carry on carting them around? Could they be part of the original seat fixings removed when the swivel bases were put in?

paulmold Posted February 2, 2023 Posted February 2, 2023 If your spare wheel is steel, you need those to put your alloy wheel in the cradle.
Derek Uzzell Posted February 2, 2023 Posted February 2, 2023 How to use the 'plate' is explained in the Ducato Owner Handbook in the "REPLACING A WHEEL" section together with the images below showing where it goes
rooster63 Posted February 2, 2023 Author Posted February 2, 2023 Thanks very much, guess I’d better put them back in the van!
Derek Uzzell Posted February 2, 2023 Posted February 2, 2023 You might want to have a 'test run' using the plate... https://www.motorhomefacts.com/threads/ducato-spare-wheel-carrier-wont-take-alloy-spare.89038/ (Perhaps the plate only works with 'genuine' Fiat alloy wheels.)
Derek Uzzell Posted February 2, 2023 Posted February 2, 2023 This MHFun thread may be helpful as the latter part of the discussion relates to carrying an alloy wheel. https://www.motorhomefun.co.uk/forum/threads/fitting-spare-wheel-carrier-help-please.248163/
