Spare tire carrier failure – OEM Polaris Part 2880148
One of my two spare tire carrier units started to crack. I have added pictures below to show the issue. It is the thick plastic circle that holds the tire in place. It is to the point where it can not be used anymore. I also noticed that my 2nd holder is showing signs of cracking also.
This is the OEM part number Part 2880148
I contacted two dealers but Polaris does not offer a replacement part. The only way to get it is to purchase a full system at $280 a unit. Waiting to hear back if Polaris will cover them under warranty since they are less then 6 months old. Here are some pictures of both spare tire holders.
Is there anyone else that has had this issue? Any suggestions on any other types of circles I can use to hold the tire down?
