got pulled over Sunday at Bulga when leaving TuffTrucks, the highway patrol officer said that my spare wheel carrier and gasbottle holder(in particular the gas bottle holder) was not legal, the gas bottle holder is mounted in a way similarto many jerry can holders andI thoughtit would be fine, I was made to remove the bottle from a clamped holder andrope it to my roof rack, seems stupid to me as the holder is much stronger.once the highway patrol officer was finished It was the RMS turn, and they wentover the vehicle and picked me on 33" tyres and the front bar not beingwide enough as a person if hit could go under the wheels and that the bar needsto as wide as the vehicle.
The RMS inspector said I needed a certificate for the wheel size and the front bar, how do I go about this, I have seen many Jeeps with similar front bars and a lot with larger tyres, I'm not too concerned about the gas bottle holder, just reckon the highway patrol was being a prick.
regards
Andrew
