Default suggestions?

so my thoughts...
without a camera, im limited to a brief description.
i have a fullsize stock tire mounted in the place it goes, and on the other side, a 13 inch tall, 15 inch deep, 13 wide sub box.
this leaves me very little room.
ive been poking around at the homebrew storage units you've guys come up with.
im looking for trunk space alternatives, and possibly a small tire carrier for the stock roof rack.
just looking for some ideas so i can give it a try.


anyone taken out the back seats and made a truck bed? this is what i want in the future...have'nt come accross the thread yet.

i've spent a few hours perusing the forums, i have'nt found what i was looking for yet, just wondering if you've seen these ideas before?

instead of mounting the tire on the stock rack maybe search for homebrew rack ideas theres alot of them on here
alot of them you can find the material at home depot for around 60 dallors
or maybe even look into a hitch mount tire carrier if your not wanting to build or buy an entire bumper

as far as a truck bed i assume your wanting s chop top
if this is the case heres a couple good threads

I was thinking about one of these for the tire, its a cheaper way to rear mount a tire if you have a hitch. If you dont, i got a class 4 hitch for $25 at the junk yard.
