Wondering if it’s ok to stand on the spare tire mounted to back door on 2022 Defender 110.
many ideas on where to find how much weight it can take?
thanks

 

Closed or Open ?


​​​​​​Closed it can handle a lot.

 

Definitely closed. Trying to work out if ok to stand on it to access roof.

 

How much do you weigh?

I don't shy away from stepping/standing on mine at all...but I'm only 165lbs. Many aftermarket manufacturers make steps that strap to the spare, so I really don't think it's a problem.

 

~220 pounds. Might be a touch much.

 

I wouldn’t risk it. Not being designed for another couple hundred pounds, give or take, over the weight of the tire, wheel, and associated hardware, the damage could be significant and costly. Not worth finding out in a bad way.
