Ya like a week ago there was a camp out/wheeling in my section of woods(naxja/northwest) and all I did was leave my pass. Seat and the lower seat in my apartment and set my tools to the very front and still plenty if room to stretch(I'm 6'2") just have to make a platform or lots of random cushy things to make up the height with the back lol

You do what you can for hygiene. its not always perfect but it works. Hell that back storage space(at least in the 4 doors,) is good when you got a passenger too. My 4 door is great to sleep in, my 2 door not so much but doable if nessacery

If I wanted it to look flush, I would have welded to a different spot on the tube to give it that look...it actually looks a little different in person, my full frame camera has a broken tele-photo lens stuck in it so i had to use my cruddy phone camera
what do you guys think? I just started back ones now

completely bolt on. 10 bolts. 2 down each leg, 6 across the top.
Angle welded to flat stock then bolted to fender.
EDIT: the 2 down each leg arent bolted onto angle, I drilled and tapped the tube and they thread into it and then the bottom one has a nut on it but not the upper one...since you cant really access it to get a nut on it. I cut well above the stock flare "rust" line on my heep. They really opened the wells up nicely

I've slept in my 2 door at 5' 10 and it's actually not too bad. had all my tools and stuff in the front seat area so I couldn't get much space from folding the seats but they do make a big difference. All you really need are the pivot mechanisms from a 2 door seat because that is all that is different.
