]]> http://pointedthree.com/disc/forums/showthread.asp?tid=25111 Hi Guys,
EDIT: Sorry for the long post but I promise it's worth it ;)
I've been a long term member here but mostly lurking when needing service info for my G. I'm more involved in another forum some of you are already participating in (Club G)


For the members that don't know me I'm a 25+yrs mechanical engineering technician who is into CAD/CAM, metal fab & welding of all kinds. Interested in all things 'made in Germany' but mostly cars and tools)
Last year I bought my dream ride, a W463 G500 and upon looking into the aftermarket accessories world I found out that most of them are overpriced for what they are (if you compare similar accessories for other brands / models of 4x4's) and I tough there was a way to make better parts at more attractive prices too.


Since then, I started a small side hustle to produce G parts and accessories under the JAYWAGON brand. See JAYWAGON.com (under construction)
 
I am currently producing what I strongly believe to be the finest reverse spare tire mount money can buy AND at the most attractive price (I am a one man show so no middlemen).
The first batch has been sold exclusively to the Club G forum members and I am now into the production of the 2nd batch, due to ship end of January 2024.
I would like to offer other forum members who are W463 owners the chance to be part of this.
 
You can find all the details and pics* on the Club G 'for sale' section under the thread listed as:
FS Reverse Spare Mounts - Project
URL is : https://clubgwagen.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=21&t=23618


*(Pics shown there is of the initial V1 version, current batch promoted here will feature V2 model new features as described below)


To recap, here's more details:

This mount features all the OEM mount features and is the best mount on the market right now featuring many options not found on other mounts offered in the market.

It allows for 2 mounting position : standard OEM position (lower and more centered) OR the high position for larger diameter tires (to clear bumper and retain good departure angle)
It also allows larger tires to clear rear door with included 'high offset' hardware kit.
There is 2 sets of hardware to assemble the mount to your G (one for OEM tires and the other for wider tires) + a set of 5 black wheel lug bolts to hold your spare wheel on the mount.
An all-inclusive solution of the upmost quality and finish.
Fully welded, heavy, thick steel, powder coated in a 2 step process.
Clear and easy install instructions with pics.

Keep in mind this was initially a personal project and I always do things ‘by the book’ in a very 'German quality approach'. Since I took the time to measure and CAD draw everything, I thought it would be nice to make a few to offer to this community. Wish I can stamp ‘made in Germany’ but this one is going to be ‘Proudly handmade In Canada’
No shortcuts has been made - this is a high end part at an attractive price, 2 things that don't normally go together in our world but for once they are.

Oh, and this is going to be the 2.0 version, with 4 new features:

-2 step powder coating featuring a zinc primer for the best corrosion resistance possible if you wheel your G in winter (and especially in the rust belt like me - yeah don't judge me...)

-Black matte / semi-gloss TEXTURED finish (like on many aftermarket off-road parts) that is more scratch forgiving than std smooth finish.

-2 new cross braces to further enhance sturdiness for EXTREME offroading users.

-A 1/2'' relocation of the mount 'center' for the 'HIGH' (rotated) position that would allow 33'' tires to clear the rear panel and allows for a full 90 degrees door opening. (this will place the tire a bit less than 1/2'' higher that the OEM position for the normal 'LOW' position but it's not a big deal and I figured that having a full 90 opening for taller tires was worth the modification.


Selling price will be USD $400 SHIPPED to lower 48 and Canada. Let me know if you are elsewhere and I will quote the shipping accordingly.

I will be asking for a voluntary deposit of USD $100 to all interested members to consolidate your spot on the list.
This deposit is voluntary and is only to guarantee a spot in this batch. If you are interested (but not to give a deposit) it's fine you can still be on the list but obviously the members that will have pay their deposit will be fulfilled before you.
Members interested without deposit will be listed as a 1st come base so if for example I have 5 kits left that are not already spoken for by a member who gave a deposit, then the 1st 5 members on the 'waiting list' will be fulfilled when the batch will be ready.

Keep in mind this is still a limited batch of mounts, and that there is already over 50% of the qty available that is spoken for as I am writing this. I don't plan to make another batch soon as I'm looking to develop other G parts in the near future.

If you need one it's a good time to jump on that opportunity for sure.

Cheers, Jason from JAYWAGON

1998 is the first year of the G500 and is without steering wheel buttons or additional electronic features which were added in 2000 and even more so in 2001/2002. The motor is the venerable m113 and the 5 speed 722.6 transmission makes this one of the best drive train combinations ever built by Mercedes. The naturally aspirated V8 makes approx 300HP and has deep torque reserves that makes driving on steep slick rock or deep sand an effortless and incredibly enjoyable experience.

I currently own 4 G-class vehicles including 2 1999 G500s and another Europa 2000 G500. This iteration of the Gwagon is in my opinion the greatest G ever made. Mostly available in the USA as Europa corporate imports. There were 360 Europa G500s sold here under their brand name. The Europa G500s had significant EPA and DOT changes made to them in order to comply with US standards.

This Japanese G500 does not have the EPA modifications and is not susceptible to the common evap error codes which plague many of the Europa G500s. Simple DOT compliance changes were made to the vehicle prior to importation resulting in a seamless importation process. There is no ESP or modern driving interferences which affect the driving experience and can negatively impact the use of larger tires or suspension lift. Unlike the earlier 463 models, the G500 can push a larger tire without any noticeable power loss or change in braking response. It is a fantastic vehicle and is the pinnacle of Gwagen engineering. Simple electronics, modern and powerful naturally aspirated V8, combined with classic real wood interior panels and old style switch/relay systems make this a rare and hard to find example of some of the best Gwagons ever made.

Since purchasing this vehicle, it has undergone some significant repairs that were unable to be solved by previous owners rendering the G even more reliable and without concerns in daily operation.
Recent work includes replacement 463 G500 instrument cluster with reprogramming to vehicle data as well as removal of windshield with repaint and sealing of gasket to body.

Recent mechanical maintenance include engine oil and filter change, TC and diff service, and brake and locker fluid flush. The water pump and alternator have also been replaced recently by prior owner.

This car has a number of desirable options including a heated windshield which is one of my favorite and most coveted options. The pre-existing sedan steering wheel was recently replaced with a 1999 Europa burl walnut steering wheel along with a burl wood transfer case shifter. Original Japan radio is not compatible with North American frequencies and has been replaced with a Continental head unit which functions well. A German made Becker BE6003 Audio 30 radio is offered as a replacement and is the original radio model used on the 1999 Europa G500. The CD changer is not present, but I have the correct one available if desired.

The wheels are original Ashtaroth 18" wheels with ET 63mm and Continental 4 season tires. A set of 18" late 1990s AMG G-class wheels are available as an option if desired. The AMG wheels include stock 265/60 BFG AT tires with less than 5000 miles of use.

I have not taken this G off-road, but all 3 lockers were tested and work well, having been recently serviced. There are no 4x4 or overlanding modifications on this car and it is sold in essentially stock condition. I have attached a number of photos and will add more in the coming week.

This car is rust free and is up to date in all maintenance items.

Some service records, Carfax from Oct 2022, and Japanese Yanase sales brochures from 1999/2000 are available and included.

The vehicle price is $60,000.

Local PPI in Portland Oregon is no problem and I would recommend Hartmann motors for this.
Please reach out to me if you have any questions.
