I have seen the tyre carriers for 16" tyres have a shorter locking arm and the tyre carriers for a 20" have a longer locking arm. Both pivot.
Also earlier tyre carriers have a ladder under the main frame of the assembly, later they discontinued this feature, possibly due to steel shortages or to save steel.
In day light I can take some pics of wheel carrier on my Chev if that helps. It is 1944 or 45, fitted with 20" wheels.
