Maybe build a carrier like the one Travis had on the back of the MJ with no tailgate. Got a picture of that thing, Travis?

Having that rear seat kills ya. Yeah, build an inverted tire carrier, raise the tank, and come up with a different tool storage solution. Lol.

Man, I forgot how far those hitches hang down.

Yeah, it's still there and hangs up a LOT. As soon as I do something better with that rear bumper I'm taking that thing off.

Hell, I might take it off today and hope the bumper holds together. It's just bolted there with the OEM bolts.

I need to weld my mounts to that rear crossmember before I really trust it. Cut it up for mounts like mine.

I've been thinking about what to do with my floor now that I can't use the rear seat. I've got like 4x4 of 16 gauge I was thinking about using to make a false floor or something. Don't really know.

I never hung up on the hitch, it just slid over stuff and banged around.

I want to make a false floor with mine eventually. But a split side.

One side won't latch, figure I could mount tools and oba maybe my batteries.

Then spare parts in the compartment, with something light mounted on top.

That's kinda what I was thinking. I'm getting a CO2 tank this weekend for OBA though. Better option, IMO.

Since the rear end of mine is cut up way too much, I'm going to be cutting all of the sheet metal out. Plan after that is to use square tubing and sheet metal to make a "utility bed"

I do on FB... pics are In my XJ and MJ build since it was on both... I tried to load them here but it crashes... I may have the pic from the rear of my MJ in the ditch let me look... just shows the tire angle tho... it's the best setuo I think... keeps weight inboard more... don't have to worry about slamming it into trees...
