    Are you pulling your broken cv in the pic with the tools out? and you can run air tools on your compressor with that little tank?

    Finally took a few mins to throw together a spare tire rack since the spare doesnt fit under my truck any more.

    Nice! Why is the tire mounted on bottom? Can't fold the topper down with it up there?

    :woot: Looks good man! I may have to hit you up for one after I get my rear bumper since I will need somewhere new to put my spare tire, but it will have to e mounted differently since I have a toolbox in the way. haha In due time though:D

    Thanks! The front bumper is definately my favorite piece on the truck.

    And yeah, its about time for all new tires all the way around.

    I had to be greedy and build something for my truck, it has been a while since it had much lovin. Now its back to my regularly scheduled program of building your bumper and skids.

    Work has cut me back to 4 hrs a day if I am not out in the field, so time is on my side for building stuff

    In my wet dreams.... I have a lot of work to do before I Can even think of running
    that much rubber...




    Add a leaf in rear which is probably not doing much any more. And billy 5100's in front, set at "a little above stock..." which probably adds up to 2 or 3"

    And rims are american racing teflon coated "predator" rims. Which is a crying shame they discontinued them.

    Got a little better shot of the rack. It uses the factory spare tire cable dangly uvula thing from under the bed to hang the spare tire. I makes it really easy to lift and drop the spare in case of emergency.
