From my understanding, after awhile of that 33" spare on the back it will eventually rip the sheet metal of the tailgate and come right of due to the weight.  I know these guys at //www.jpfaboffroad.com/ who would be able to whip something up for ya though.  The prices are real good too.    ::woot::  :mrgreen:

It's only a 33x10.50 AT on an alloy rim, so not too much more weight than a stock steel rim and 29" tire.  Besides, my tailgate is already busted from that tree that jumped out into the trail last year near Muskegon.  

I got a price quote from the guys at JPFab that was very attractive despite my very particular list of needs/wants/desires.  Unfortunately on the home front a bumper/tire carrier is in the wants/desires category, not "needs", so it isn't getting much traction.  Especially since I just invested a bunch in tools and supplies to start doing my own welding.

Washed a thick, green layer of Georgia pollen off the hood from it sitting for a week while we were gone.

I let mine sit in the driveway and get rained on the past couple days.. oh, with a steady stream of power steering fluid coming out of it too...

Anybody got a spare steering gear laying around I could buy off 'em?
