@Nimble9 I heard you have a wilco tire swing for sale?

 

nah I had a RIGID armor one for a while

 

how is this so clean ? https://providence.craigslist.org/cto/d/providence-clean-2004-toyota-tacoma-ex/7119873208.html

 

Extra clean, means they cleaned out the extra cab

 

Undercoating, then pressure wash it off is my guess

 

If anyone finds a tire swingout hitch mounted please let me know.

 

@ready6delta werent you planning on selling yours or something?

 

The guy went under there with a rattle can of rust inhibitor, after he power washed the shit out of it

 

Like this?

 

You have a write us on what you did for this?

 

@diabetiktaco Not sure if this one is still for sale.

 

Thanks for the heads up. Doesn't look like it is, but I can get one from Jegs for like 770 shipped. I still feel like that's a crazy price for what it is.

 

LOL, I agree. Does it have to be a swing out? Do you have welding skills?

 

Has to be yes, and 0 Welding skills. I was looking at a regular hitchgate and mounting the tire mount to it. Main thing I want is a table on the inside. But yeah, I have no skills. I figure if I pay someone to do it, it'll cost as much if I just bought it.

 

I did the same thing with my rotopax. Hold on one second and I can find some pics.

 

@diabetiktaco
I used a spare front bed channel, cut it in half, drilled out five of the attachment holes from the inside for each, and replaced them longer screws and attached channel nuts to a piece of channel aluminium.

 

Maybe not as cool but works.

Clever! I like the idea.

 

Looks like an affordable option. Negative expo points for you for being sensible.

 

Get stainless strut and it'll outlast your frame!
