MEIKA MKIII Swing Out Spare Wheel Carrier for GWM Tank 300 — Take the Weight Off Your Tailgate
The GWM Tank 300 is built for adventure, and most owners soon fit bigger all-terrain or mud-terrain tyres for touring and off-road driving. The catch is the spare: from the factory it hangs straight off the side-hinged rear door, and a larger, heavier tyre puts that door under real strain. The MEIKA MKIII Swing Out Spare Wheel Carrier moves the spare onto its own high-strength Q500 steel swing arm, carries tyres up to 35 inches, and adds a modular accessory panel for your recovery and touring gear — so your tailgate stays straight, quiet and easy to use for years to come.
Why the Tank 300 Needs a Swing Out Carrier
▪ The leverage problem — the spare sits well behind the door skin and away from the hinges, so its weight acts like a lever on the hinge pins, door frame and latch. The bigger the tyre, the longer the lever and the greater the force
▪ Off-road makes it worse — on corrugations, potholes and washouts the spare bounces with every hit, multiplying that load hundreds of times on every trip
▪ The result over time — a sagging rear door, misaligned latch, worn hinges, rattles and squeaks, and a tailgate that's hard to open and close
▪ The fix — a swing out carrier takes the spare's weight on its own pivot and support structure, so the tailgate only has to carry itself again
Key Features
▪ Takes the load off your tailgate — the spare rides on the swing arm instead of the door hinges, preventing tailgate sagging, deformation and abnormal noise
▪ Carries spare tyres up to 35 inches — a heavy-duty box-section arm and reinforced pivot handle the big all-terrain and mud-terrain tyres that the factory door mount struggles with
▪ Q500 high-strength steel — Q500 structural steel has a minimum yield strength of 500 MPa, roughly double that of common Q235 mild steel. That means a stiffer arm that resists bending, flex and fatigue cracking under repeated off-road loads
▪ Full tailgate access — swing the carrier out of the way and the rear door opens as normal for loading and unloading
▪ Rear camera stays clear — designed around the Tank 300's reversing camera so your view stays unobstructed
▪ Modular extension panel — pre-drilled mounting holes let you fit flag poles, UHF antennas, fire extinguishers, shovels, tools and more, freeing up space inside the cabin
▪ Raised accessory post — the top-mounted post gives a high mounting position for an optional third brake light or other accessories
▪ Black powder-coated finish — tough, corrosion-resistant coating built for Australian conditions, with a rugged look that suits the Tank 300's styling
Factory Tailgate Mount vs Swing Out Carrier
▪ Factory tailgate mount — fine for the standard-size spare on the road, but the hinges and door frame carry the full weight, and larger tyres or regular off-road driving accelerate wear
▪ MEIKA swing out carrier — the arm, pivot and mounting take the load, so you can run a bigger spare, carry extra gear on the extension panel and still keep the tailgate in factory condition
▪ Which is right for you? If you've upsized your tyres, tour with a loaded vehicle or regularly drive corrugated tracks, a swing out carrier is the long-term solution for the Tank 300
