    You made all of those? Pretty damn impressive. I like the idea of having the tire carrier mounted on it. After looking it it i can think of a slight mod that might suit my needs a bit better though.

    The side closest to back glass:
    1- have a bar coming up to cab height so that a light bar can be mounted.
    2- have a bar join the two triangle braces that support the bar and mount the tire on that bar. The tire will be at roughly a 45 degree angle facing outward towards the back.

    Just random shit that pops into my head. I just lack the skill to weld it together lol.

    Did you build the sliders as well?

    Your only an hour away. I can swing through and chill at a hotel for a weekend with my wife. We have actually been looking into buying property out that way at some point so i could use that as an excuse with my wife while you work your magic. Part of us wants to move past San Antonio so not sure if that excuse will work

    Not sure exactly. I have been to a few places at the northern part where deer will come up to your front porch practically. Easy food source right there lol. Personally im looking for a place in the middle of no mans land. My wife wants a mall though :(

    you can look at 281 north of san antonio. it'll probably be your best bet for that. you get some really nice hill country up there, and it's a pretty easy jaunt into the city as long as you don't try it at rush hour, although they did finish the new interchange at 1604/281 which helps a little. the north/northwest side (around camp bullis) are generally the nicer areas, and avoid south of 10 at all costs. The south east side you have to be a certain race, and the south west is all military and the bs associated with it (payday loans, used cars, tattoos, shit bars, and general heavy police presence).
