    It's a swingout gate attached to the plate bumper. I built it using the tire carrier swingout kit from A to Z fabrication.

    Here are some pics from when I built it.

    Took it in for a rust service campaign, and left with a 2015 Corolla! :eek: Turns out one of the gas tank straps rusted through so I have a loaner for a couple of days while that's fixed. After that, they're going to replace the frame due to a hole somewhere. I didn't know they would actually replace the frames for this. Seems like a shit load of work, and I'm a bit concerned about all the shit bolted to the frame and rusted solid.

    Installed the National Luna dual battery kit. Took about 2 hours to complete. Now that it is on here it looks like I will need to replace my original truck battery, next round of purchases.

    It's not bad. I average about 15-16mpg in the city and 18-20mpg on the freeway as long as I stay around 70mph
