About this product
Runner Spare Tire Mount – in stock at 361 Degrees Adventure in Tanzania.
Every 4×4 in Tanzania carries a spare wheel, and the hollow in the middle of it travels empty. Front Runner’s braai grate uses that space: the disassembled grate slides into the centre of the spare, and when you stop, it comes out and hooks over the same wheel to become a cooking surface 600 mm across.
That is a proper grate. Six hundred millimetres of laser-cut steel takes a group’s worth of meat at once rather than cooking in rounds, and it sits 210 mm above the coals, which is the right height for charcoal – close enough to sear, far enough not to burn. The legs and spacers are die-cast aluminium, which matters over years: aluminium will not rust into the steel and seize the assembly the way plated parts do.
It fits tyres from 29 to 37 inches, roughly 740 to 890 mm. For the smaller end of that range, 740 to 840 mm, the spacers are not needed; larger tyres use them. The whole kit is three legs, three spacers, three grids, twelve M5 bolts and nuts and two spanners, and it takes about fifteen minutes to put together the first time.
One honest note: it is designed for cooking over coals rather than over high flames. Let a fire burn down before cooking, which is how a braai should be run anyway. At 4.5 kg it is substantial without being a burden, and it needs something to hold it in place on the wheel – a spare wheel step, a ratchet strap or a wheel cover, none of which are included.
