    In light/contrast of the engine cage thread, could you guys please volunteer your bedcage pics and tire carrier pics for those of us aspiring to the LT route :eek:

    edit: could you also mention what size shocks you guys are running with the bedcage?

    And it's for sale $700. Can hold up to a 35" spare and uses 16" shocks need no bed modification minus the hole for the shocks.

    Nice looking cage! 2 questions, is it bolt in and did you build it yourself?

    Well done, much nicer than paying $1,800 for the Giant bolt in cage.

    Thanks and plus the Giant one runs straight across at the from bed bolts so you lose 5" or so of space.

    Thank you sir.

    Best of both worlds. Welded to the frame, bolted to the bed. I can still remove the bed if needed. DMZ springs with 16 shocks.
