    Hey guys, I'm tired of having my spare tire sitting in my garage. And I don't have the cash to go buy a aftermarket one.

    How difficult would it be to build one myself? Something like Amir has on his truck.

    I'm making one for a 2nd gen one that's going to use the 2 front bed bolts for some good footing and it'll be a off road T handle style. It should have been made already but I've been a bit backed up. I'll make a thread when it's done...it's scheduled to be built this coming week. (along with sliders guys are waiting on) He ordered this one from my site and when I asked what he'd be carrying on it, he said a 35" tire and possibly 39" in the future. This is more of a street style, so I decided to build him a T handle style in the same price range.

    I really want to keep the price as low as I can in the name of selling a few. I'll know a bit more once it's done. It shouldn't be too involved which means it'll be affordable, plus it won't require all the plasma cut plates like the one above has which is a plus.
