CHASDB looks like your right next door to me do you go out to local trails and san beradino area?
|
U bolts sound clean. My buddy drilled right into his stock brackets. They hold a lot of weight.
|
the u bolts look like they came with it the way it sits on rails feels real sturdy. i may need to lower it for clearance to get into my trailer after the lift and tires.
|
Are you going to store your spare tire up there when you run 33s?
|
Depends after my lift with my toyhaler height for spare on top and length if I get a carrier that's why I haven't bought a rear bumper yet. I want to put on roof and have clean back end without obstructing view and have to always unhook to get in. I have heard about higher center gravity and more wind resistance worse mileage on the roof
|
I think the rear tire carrier looks the cleanest, but I feel the same way about the view obstruction. Right now I don't even have a spare haha.
|
I think I have original that's what 11 years old I bought spare with my 33's
|
Which carrier I want strong and looks I like jcr and detours
