My new tow rig. Some day. It needs a lot of TLC

So I needed a place to stick my tire. I don't like it on the roof. It looks good IMO but seems to hinder performance. Feels top heavy, Hits trees, Difficult to reach when needed. So I threw together a quick cage out of exhaust tube.

Now just hope you don't get in a head on accident or that tire is going through the windshield, probably taking you with it.

Could use the stock location, just get a longer bolt heat the end and bend it.

A big tire won't fit in the stock location unless it's deflated. (hits the rear hatch)

I have my 33" there no problem. its not on the little foot that the stock tire would be, and its at a bit of an angle, but it works just fine.

I'm running 37's and want to go to 40's when the 37's are worn.

an almost bald 35 will only barely fit laying flat behind the seat.
