Fitting Underslung Spare Wheel MAN Parts UPDATE

[DonGraham]

UPDATE TO MAN PARTS FROM PREVIOUS THREAD - See below:

I have found the parts via MAN dealership and the difference in price

VW 7C0803660BF SPARE WHEEL BRACKET AND CABLE £166.80 (MAN 65424030048 £123.60)

UPDATE This MAN part number is NOT correct! There are 2 x part numbers that cross reference with the VW Part number, so it must be the "other one". They do not like giving part numbers out! The difference is the bracket that goes through the hole in the wheel centre is too big. I ended up going back to TPS and getting the VW part. Other parts fit fine....

VW 7C0805350F REBOUND STRAP £68.88 (MAN 65424400006 £48.60)

VW 7 X N0195308 M8X25 FLANGED HEX BOLTS (MAN 65900500002 £16.04)

VW 1 X N10714101 M10 X 25 FLANGED HEX BOLT (MAN 65904050136 £1.92)

Thanks, there are so many people building campers out there. They all seem to take the spares off because they're using 3.5 tonne vans.

I bought everything second hand except a brand new tyre (235/65/16), 1200 kg rim £40, unused Jack £50, lowering bracket and cable £40. "T" bar-jack tools £25. It came with all bolts, just be aware that there are two different tools to lower wheels, mine is the square drive.

Hi Don

What was the correct part number for the underbody wheel carrier?

I have a 7C0803660BF being shipped from OEMVWSHOP in Slovakia to NZ (the transport was a bit stiff), since then and after ordering other parts from LLL Parts in UK they say the 7C0803660BF will not fit my late 2021 CG680.

Both places were supplied my VIN and I paid additional Euro to OEMVWSHOP to confirm fitment prior to shipping. We will be having words if it does not fit.

Cheers

Alan

This is the parts list used in the UK so should all fit fine.

Spare wheel and jack weigh 30kg, so beware . I removed them this week after putting our 4motion 680 on a weighbridge and it was nearly at 3.88t limit. But water tank and diesel full to brim to get worse case scenario
