Attaching the spare tire to Largus: using the bracket, rules for removing and securing the wheel

In most cars, the spare tire is located in a special niche, which is present in the luggage compartment and is covered with a shelf. In this regard, the designers of the domestic high-capacity station wagon Lada Largus indulged in an unconventional method of placing the spare wheel. And many are interested in the question: where is the spare tire? They placed this wheel in a special basket, which they hung from the outside to the bottom in the trunk area. If the new owner of this model is not aware of the location of the spare tire, then it may take him some time to find this object, during which he is guaranteed to be in complete amazement.

Advantages and disadvantages of fastenings

The spare wheel bracket located on the rear door has a number of advantages:

does not spoil the appearance of the car;
reliable;
easy to operate and install;
preserves the ability to use the useful volume of the trunk to the maximum.

The spare wheel mounted on the rear door protects the bumper from possible damage.

Among the shortcomings, it is worth noting the possible sagging of the hinges with all the ensuing consequences - loose closing of the door, distortions, creaks. Car owners also note that the door does not open completely, which makes accessing part of the trunk difficult.

Bracket selection and installation

Brackets for fixing a spare wheel on Largus appeared on the car accessories market not so long ago. There are two types of such fastenings:

spare tire holder on the rear door: fixed and rotating versions available;
reinforced spare wheel mount - fixed in the trunk opening and to the bottom of the car, replacing the tow bar.

To install the fastener, you do not need to drill new holes for bolted connections; existing standard places are used. The spare wheel on the back door can become a decoration if you purchase an additional cover. It can be ordered in any color and with any inscription.

If there is a conventional bracket, the fastening gate is opened first, then the tailgate. The reinforced lock has its own characteristics: first the left holder is unscrewed, after which the wheel tilts to the right.

Installing the bracket takes no more than 20 minutes:

unscrew the upper nuts of the lower and upper hinge of the rear door on the right;
the bracket is placed on the vacant seats;
screw the hinge nuts and two fastening bolts into the standard places near the door lock.

The installation is complete, all that remains is to put on the protective cap or cover, if any. Installation of a reinforced holder will take more time, since the bracket is fixed to the bottom of the car. This means that a lift or inspection hole will be needed.

How to install the spare tire and remove it from the bracket

If a tire gets punctured on the road, a spare one will always help out. If there is a bracket on the rear door, the process of removing the spare tire is greatly simplified. The wheel is secured to a special holder using four nuts. To remove the spare wheel on Largus, you need to open the gate and unscrew the nuts and remove the wheel.

With a reinforced mounting option, everything is even simpler - just unscrew the holder on the left and lower it to the ground. Now all that remains is to unscrew the nuts and remove the wheel. You don’t even have to lift the spare tire using physical force. It is already on the ground, and it is enough to roll it to the installation site.

Purchasing brackets to secure the spare tire outside the usable space of the car has become a necessity. Installing gas equipment reduces fuel costs, but at the same time deprives the car of regular space for an additional wheel. In addition, many Lada Largus owners require the entire trunk space of the car when transporting a large amount of cargo. The holder can be useful in cars of those who love long trips and outdoor activities. It will allow you to transport two spare tires at once: one in the trunk, the other on the back door.

very often lately the traffic police have begun to pay attention to cars with additional equipment and tuning, so I decided to legalize what I hung on my Largus!

Good afternoon Many have already started registering HBO on their cars and I’m no exception, but in addition I also have a spare wheel holder installed on the rear door and bumper protection, so I decided to register them. I had my doubts, but it turns out there are no problems! To design this Bracket, I first contacted the INSAT company, that is, the Institute for Certification of Automotive Equipment, there are, of course, other companies, this is all optional, I first asked in words if it was possible to obtain permission for a spare wheel bracket and bumper protection, they immediately answered YES, it is possible, and I I immediately submitted the car documents and copies of certificates downloaded from the Tehnosphere LLC website to them and paid 3000 rubles. the next day I already received a completed preliminary examination report, which states that this bracket can be installed on this car and does not affect road safety. Although this additional equipment is not subject to mandatory certification at the institute, I was warned that traffic cops are different and it is better to get certificates certified by a live seal and signature of the seller, I immediately called the manufacturer Tehnosphere LLC and they sent me certificates by mail on the same day, five days later I received them and am satisfied I went to the Technical Department of the State Traffic Safety Inspectorate, wrote an application to change the design of the car, where an employee examined the car, checked the license plates, etc. (by the way, all additional extras must be removed since you have not yet been given permission to install them) then in the office of the technical department they looked at my application , certificates, the conclusion of the preliminary examination, they immediately put a stamp and signature on the possibility of installation, and since the conclusion of the examination says that independent installation is possible, I immediately took the application form - declaration of installation of additional equipment and filled it out accordingly from that moment on my car already there must be additional equipment that I indicated in the application! Then I went back to INSAT to get the examination report and paid 4000 rubles. and two days later I received a protocol in my hands where it says that everything was installed safely, etc. and the main change in car parameters is the weight increased by 5 kg and the length by 200 mm. , then the state technical inspection here, of course, everyone wants to pay a ruble as much as they want and they will bring you a diagnostic card home, I personally stopped by on the way and for 390 rubles. passed by myself! Then, again, go to the State Traffic Safety Inspectorate for inspection and submit documents to the office, that is, the conclusion of the preliminary examination, the examination report, an application for making changes to the design of the car, an application-declaration for the installation of additional equipment and a state fee of 800 rubles. (by the way, the other traffic cop didn’t even look at the certificates, but when asked by me, do you need them? He answered that since the bracket is not subject to mandatory certification, no! It’s not necessary.) But there are different types of screws, it’s better to stock up, there won’t be too much! Well, a week later I received a certificate of design change from the State Traffic Safety Inspectorate and, in order not to delay until later, I immediately went to change the registration certificate, that is, to make changes, this is another state fee of 850 rubles. Well, that’s the whole procedure, I slowly completed it in a month and a half, but Taking into account the organization of work in the traffic police, less than a month will not work, since the technical department works two days a week for three hours, this is for the entire Nizhny Novgorod region and you will have to visit it at least 4-5 times!

Installing a spare wheel on the Largus rear door

The spare wheel on the Lada Largus station wagon is located under the car or in the trunk. If you install gas equipment (LPG), the spare tire can be moved to the trunk door. There is a special accessory for this, called a “spare wheel mounting bracket”.

There are several types of spare tire mounts at the rear of the car:

In both cases, the bracket is installed in standard places; there is no need to make additional holes or modifications. In the first case, the bracket is held on by 4 screws (2 - one screw on each door hinge, 2 - on the end of the door).

In the second case, installation will take longer, because... you will need to fix the bracket from below the car:

The main purpose of the accessory is to free up space in the trunk (under the bottom of the car) for installing LPG. Fans of active recreation can refuse HBO in favor of installing an additional spare tire. What type of bracket for carrying the spare tire would you choose?

Let us remind you that we previously laid out the dimensions of the box, which allows you to make a flat floor in the trunk of Largus. There are also instructions for making a raised floor.

very often lately the traffic police have begun to pay attention to cars with additional equipment and tuning, so I decided to legalize what I hung on my Largus!

Bracket for spare wheel

Lada Largus is a small car, and the spare wheel at the rear makes it look massive. Factories began to produce special baskets that allow the wheel element to be fixed outside rather than inside the car. Mass production appeared due to the high demand for products. The bracket allows you to hold not only the wheel, but even the tire. Bracket specifications:

length, width – 55 cm each;
height – 30 cm;
weight – 5 kg.

The basket will allow you to fix the spare wheel on the surface of the stern door without damaging the body. The bracket does not need to be registered like a trailer. Its cost starts from 4,000 rubles. The price will be higher if the product is equipped with fasteners. It is better to purchase the Lada Largus spare wheel mount for the rear doors separately, since the factory element has a lot of shortcomings: short pins, lack of nuts, weak steel.

If previously the wheel was moved due to the desire to install a gas cylinder in the luggage compartment, now it is the final touch of the upgrade. For this purpose, several options for car brackets are used:

Rotary type. It is installed on the right door.
Product screwed to the bottom.

Fastenings are made to standard points on the body; technologists have provided special holes for fixing.

Advantages and disadvantages

Not all Largus are equipped with baskets, since additional fastening has advantages and disadvantages:

pros	Minuses
Frees up space in the trunk. The design is created in such a way that it does not interfere with the operation of parking sensors. The spare tire basket is used for tuning.	Increases the size of vehicles, making parking difficult. Requires purchase of a cover and fasteners. The original basket is more expensive than the analogue one.

Bracket selection and installation

It is better to purchase the original, but if the driver wants to save money, then you can buy an analogue. The basket is made of metal and has a chrome-plated or painted surface. Chrome is preferable as the paint will peel off over time.

When installing a spare wheel on the Largus rear door, you should take care of reliable fastenings, since they will hold the part and the spare wheel. It is better to purchase bolts with massive nuts and a cross-shaped tip. Such hardware can be found in any automotive store.

Along with the hardware, you should prepare a screwdriver, a ratchet wrench, and take care of an assistant who will support the device while another screws the structure. Algorithm of actions:

A special sealing gasket is provided with the basket, so the protective part is installed first using bolts.
The bracket is attached to the top with three screws.
It is important to ensure that the gasket is securely clamped between the body and the basket.
The hook is fixed in the central hole and handle.
The levers that will hold the spare tire are being installed.
The wheel is installed.

The hardware should be tightened using a wrench with a special pad that allows the fasteners to be firmly fixed.

How to remove and install a spare tire in Largus?

Next we will tell you in detail how to remove the spare tire. Since the spare tire in the Lada Largus station wagon we are considering is located in a hard-to-reach place, in order to provide convenient access to it you will need to hang the car with a special lifting device or operate from a hole.

So, let's film!

The basket, which is designed to hold the spare tire suspended, has a special hook. It is secured with a bolt. First, we unscrew the specified fastener a small number of turns. We use a size 17 head with a suitable extension.
Next, we proceed to removing the handle of the basket itself from the specified hook.
Now we need to lower the basket to a certain angle. Here you need to manually hold the spare wheel.
Having achieved this, remove the spare tire and set it aside.
We remove the basket itself from the brackets present on the body elements of the bottom.
When the holding basket is dismantled, you can begin to remove the lock. This is not always required, but you should not lose sight of this point. Here we use a Torx T40 type wrench.

Install the cart.

Before installing the lock body, we install an O-ring, which acts as a gasket between the body element of the Lada Largus and the product considered here.
We fasten the body itself using the indicated two bolts.
We install the hook in its original place and screw in the bolt (not completely) that secures it.
We place the basket levers into the corresponding brackets located on the body.
Now you can stow the spare tire.
We raise the basket itself to the required level, after which we secure the handle in the indicated hook.
Tighten the hook bolt with full torque.

The removal operation should be carried out with sufficient frequency, which will allow you to easily remove the spare tire at the right time in road conditions.

Moving the spare tire to the stern door

If the owner has set out to convert the engine of his Lada Laprgus to gas fuel, then installation of gas cylinder equipment will be required. But where to install the cylinder itself? It is for these purposes that owners move the spare wheel to the rear door, freeing up space for installing a container for fuel. In this case, there is only one way out - a spare wheel for the rear door.

For these purposes, you will need to acquire an appropriate device called a bracket. It allows you to securely fix the spare wheel on the surface of the stern door. The estimated price of such a device fluctuates around 4 thousand rubles.

There are a couple of design options for the bracket in the implementation network. Among them:

a rotary type bracket installed on the surface of the rear right door;
a product of reinforced construction, the fastenings of which are installed under the bottom in the luggage opening.

Both options involve mounting the bracket on standard points on the body. There are corresponding holes for these purposes. Here the manufacturer saved the owners from the need for modifications in terms of constructing additional holes.

Methods for attaching a spare tire on Largus

On the Lada Largus, the manufacturer has allocated space in the trunk for a spare wheel. Today, many drivers, in order to save money, prefer to install LPG (gas equipment). For this reason, they face a problem: where to put the additional wheel, because a gas cylinder is installed in its place.

Some people design special devices for attaching the spare wheel to Largus with their own hands, but they turn out to be too bulky and look unaesthetic. They can also raise questions from traffic police officers, since license plates or lights are often covered with such mounts. The best solution to the problem would be to install a spare wheel on the Largus rear door.

Bracket for spare wheel

This bracket allows you to hold both the spare tire and the spare wheel with equally good efficiency. This product is also not capable of interfering with the functioning of parking sensors and allows you to install a tow bar without additional effort.

Next, using a specific example, we give the features of the bracket. The product has compact dimensions and weight:

length – 55 cm;
width – a similar parameter (55 cm);
height does not exceed 30 cm;
The weight of the product is 5 kg.

In addition to the specified bracket, manufacturers include a cover for the spare tire, made of eco-leather, or a hard plastic cap.

How to install the spare tire and remove it from the bracket

Bracket for mounting the spare tire on the trunk door - from 4,000 rubles.
Protective cap with the inscription LARGUS - from 400 rubles.

There are several types of spare tire mounts at the rear of the car:

Swivel bracket for spare wheel holder (attached to the right tailgate).
Reinforced fastening of the spare wheel (the bracket is attached to the bottom of the car and in the trunk opening).

Every motorist may find himself in a situation where he needs to change a tire. No one is protected from a tire puncture, plus, it may be necessary to change the tire before winter or before the start of the summer season. One way or another, you just need to have the following things in the trunk:

— Actually, a spare wheel — A jack — A wheel wrench (for unscrewing the wheel bolts), preferably with an extension cord — A pump with a pressure gauge.

It is not difficult to notice that one of the wheels has “burst.” This is, first of all, weighting or spontaneous turning of the steering wheel in any direction. If you notice these signs, stop immediately. Don’t even think about driving a little further “to the yard” or anywhere else. Driving with a flat tire will eliminate the possibility of getting it repaired.

So you're on the sidelines. Before changing a wheel, be sure to secure the vehicle on a level surface. No hills or holes! Engage first gear and handbrake, place some kind of support under the car wheels.

In addition to the wheel, jack, and wheel wrench, you may also need gloves for your hands and a small board to place under the jack. A plank is especially needed on uneven surfaces, such as dirt or sand.

Before installing the jack under the body stiffeners, the bolts must be loosened. A wheel wrench is for exactly this purpose. Why do we unscrew the bolts without lifting the car, you ask. The fact is that when the car is raised, the wheel will rotate a little, and the (slightly) loosened bolts will be easier to remove later.

The jack must be installed strictly in the designated place. You can feel it with your hand - it is a groove/recess under the bottom. If you can’t find it, look under the bottom, it will be easier. Start lifting the car only after making sure that the jack is securely fastened. Many people get into this problem - an incorrectly installed jack cannot support the weight of the car and collapses, causing the car to fall with a crash. You should not be convinced of this personally; unnecessary repairs due to negligence will be unpleasant.

As soon as the wheel is above ground level, we stop lifting and completely unscrew the bolts. The wheel must be pulled off the guide pins. It is also necessary to install a new wheel in accordance with the bolt pattern.

Once you have installed the wheel, tighten the 4 bolts by hand, lower the jack and only then tighten the bolts with a wheel wrench. It is worth taking this seriously. Your safety on the road depends on this.

By the way, you should never lubricate the threads of the bolts - they will quickly unscrew. It will be unpleasant if you are left without a wheel at high speed. One can only guess the consequences...

Necessary tools

The reasons why there may be a need to replace a wheel are varied: a simple puncture, the need to change brake discs, or a failed shock absorber.

Each driver must be able to perform the procedure for removing and installing a new model. The replacement process is quite simple and should not cause any difficulties for the owner. To remove a wheel on a Lada Largus car, you will need a minimum set consisting of the following:

jack;
balloon wrench;
collar for the nozzle (end);
17 mm nozzles for the knob.

Wheel replacement

In the factory design, the spare tire is located at the bottom of the car, secured in a special bracket. You must remove the spare tires on the Largus Cross through the luggage compartment, having first unscrewed the flap under the floor covering. Now you will need a wheel wrench: using a 17 mm socket, you need to unscrew the bolt holding the spare wheel. Together with the spare tire bracket, the holder hook itself will also lower.

When the Largus spare wheel bracket is lowered all the way, you will need to remove it from the holder hook, and then carefully remove the stowed spare wheel. Next, you need to use a special wrench from the standard toolkit (see photo), which will unscrew the bolt holding the factory cap. Afterwards, using a wheel wrench, you will need to slightly loosen the tightened bolts securing the spare wheel to the Largus. Now the operation is in the following sequence:

Using a jack, you need to hang the wheel by installing a special stand under the car (for insurance).
Unscrew and remove the fastening bolts.
Install a new spare wheel by performing the steps in reverse order.

Safety regulations

Despite the fact that this procedure does not require special skills and even a novice car enthusiast can cope with it, it is recommended to strictly follow the prescribed safety measures when interacting with the jack. Before starting work you should:

make sure that the vehicle is on a flat, non-shaky surface;
Be sure to block the rear wheels and squeeze the handbrake;
in some cases it is necessary to block the front units;
The opposite, diagonally located wheel is also subject to blocking;
When lifting a vehicle, be sure to use safety holders: give preference to factory-made products.

Tips for choosing tires

The Lada Largus is available in a front-wheel drive version, so it is better to purchase two sets of tires: a summer and a winter version. Preference can be given to both domestic and foreign rubber manufacturers. It’s not worth saving on purchasing as an all-season product: multiple experiments have proven its dubious effectiveness. Winter in the Russian Federation is almost always snowy, so it makes sense to choose Lada Largus Cross wheels with studs. The popular Velcro doesn't really help when the road is heavily covered with snow.

How to change wheels on Largus

The Russian-French car LADA Largus, which first rolled off the production line in 2011, is a full-fledged station wagon, produced in three main versions: a 5-door station wagon, a 7-seater minivan and a 5-door van. Belongs to the category of front-wheel drive city cars with a 4x2 wheel arrangement. A common question among car owners: how to change tires on Largus? This article will outline the guidance in detail.

Summing up

The procedure for replacing the spare tire on a Lada Largus should not create difficulties for the car enthusiast. The factory provides simple and clear access to the spare tire, as well as the availability of spare parts. The replacement can be made using a small number of tools and a standard jack. The convenient Lada Largus spare wheel holder will securely fix the spare wheel in the desired position and save space in the luggage compartment of the vehicle. The main thing is to follow the safety rules and follow the instructions when changing a wheel on a car.

Let's sum it up

Despite the unconventional location of the spare wheel in the LADA Largus station wagon, the practicality of the car is not compromised at all. This decision of the manufacturer pursued the goal of achieving maximum versatility for transporting various types of cargo. The solid hard floor of the luggage compartment makes this possible.

The fastening itself is not complicated and can be dismantled without much effort. The main thing is to provide convenient access to perform actions.

The manufacturer also took care of those who like to install gas equipment, providing for the possibility of installing the bracket we reviewed. This also comes with convenience and does not restrict trunk capacity, for which they buy the Russian LADA Largus station wagon.
