    Thank you
    Yup! Another reason I wanted it at that level. A low or even mid height RTT is a double loose IMO. Too low to stuff a lot of gear under and you loose complete rear visibility. Hopefully I will like this layout.

    I agree completely. With my mid rack on with or with out the RTT my rear view is almost completely useless and I cant even crawl under it because its so low.:facepalm: I now have a bedslide so I shouldnt need to crawl under it but that doesnt help my visibility. The swingout with tire carrier also doesnt help any and took 2/3rds of the tiny bit of visibility I had left from the rack. At least I still have 2 side mirrors.:notsure:

    If you decide to start a thread for this pls tag me if by some chance you remember(I know your busy so wont hold my breath). While its probably not in my budget right now I have been looking at adding a 3rd break/turn signal light for my rack to add another more visible rear light. With the midrack/Rtt blocking the 3rd brake light and having the swingout I feel like I have made it too hard for the idiots on the road to miss seeing me brake or using my turn signals from behind me and am waiting to get rear ended. This could be a great solution though I need to get my rack back on the truck to see how much my spare is going to block the view of a solution like this even on my rack.

    Needed to hold my spare tire in, so I whipped up a cool little cap. Beefy too.

    If you have to swap out the spare for a flat will it still mount up ok with the deflated tire?

    Not sure? Worst case I'll lay it down in the bed until I get it fixed I guess.

    Well... Today is bitter sweet.
    For those that follow me know I like making cool stuff. I was very blessed at my current job to have the resources and allotted time in order to do so. But today that has changed, and hopefully for the better.
    I have officially resigned from my day job in order to pursue the dream of owning my own company and being my own boss. I would be lying if I said I wasn't scared, but big rewards come with big risks. I am still in great standing with my (now) former employer and will continue designing and utilizing their 3D print services.
    But now I am able to focus 110% on MESO Customs and make it greater than ever. I have a TON of new ideas/products in the works, including teaming up with a Local metal fab shop to start making metal products.
    I will be gone/unavailable for a few weeks at the end of this month, as I will be flying to Asia for business meetings with OE light manufactures, LED companies, and some injection molding facilities. I still try and make everything is the US, but there are just some things I can't make.
    Thank you guys for the overwhelming support, and get ready for some more cool stuff from MESO:cheers:


    My life in the bed:(
