awesome looking build man. If you are taking it on the trails, I would go with a pintle hitch set up.

I've got to be honest, This isn't the type of "sleeper" I was anticipating...
But a great unintended pun and a really cool sleeper.

I think these are sweet setups, but I was wondering about the weight of them. Actually if it is top heavy, or have a tendency to roll, or tip while wheeling. Especially if it has a lift on it. Just curious
