PMJ777JAJ Posted November 22, 2022 Share Posted November 22, 2022 I've purchased a 13/60 that doesn't have a spare wheel well, someone has welded a complete flat floor in the boot. I've purchased a spare wheel well but I need to know the measurements as to where the wheel well would fit as I believe if it's not fitted in the correct place it will foul on the exhaust. So I would appreciate anyone who can let me know the measurements/dimensions as to where the spare wheel well goes in the boot floor. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yorkshire_spam Posted November 22, 2022 Share Posted November 22, 2022 Sorry can't help with the measurements. But I can't help but feel that somebody didn't want to buy one of these at this money! https://www.jamespaddock.co.uk/spare-wheel-well-3 😉 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

foshi Posted November 22, 2022 Share Posted November 22, 2022 has the original floor totally been cut away or just plated over Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PMJ777JAJ Posted November 22, 2022 Author Share Posted November 22, 2022 It looks as though the centre part of the floor has been cut away Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PMJ777JAJ Posted November 22, 2022 Author Share Posted November 22, 2022 I have got a new spare wheel well ,it’s just where it goes in the boot floor as I will have to cut a hole to fit it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PMJ777JAJ Posted November 22, 2022 Author Share Posted November 22, 2022 If possible I would like someone to measure the position of the spare wheel well in their car and let me know the measurements so I can make sure I cut the hole in the correct place.

Wendy Dawes Posted November 22, 2022 Share Posted November 22, 2022 I’ll measure mine tomorrow unless someone posts before then 👍 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cirrusdancer Posted November 23, 2022 Share Posted November 23, 2022 I measure 60mm from the back of the boot, 40mm from the front and 430mm from the driver's side to the curve of the wheel well. On the passenger side the well just extends under the petrol tank. I'd post an image of my boot but can't see any option to copy one into the post.

PMJ777JAJ Posted November 23, 2022 Author Share Posted November 23, 2022 Thanks for everyone’s help, just to make sure I’ve got everything right can anyone tell me the approx gap between the wheel well and the silencer box . Once I know this I think I’m set. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foshi Posted November 23, 2022 Share Posted November 23, 2022 that will depend on what silencer box is fitted / taking a reference point from the silencer wont really work Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
standardthread Posted November 23, 2022 Share Posted November 23, 2022 Try this, it's a scale drawing from the official workshop manual so you should be able to re-scale/enlarge it. The drawing shows it off-centre (the cross hatch in the wheel well). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
