It was just an idea thrown like that,hoping it would lead to other ideas,and it did.I like what you wrote.You're a wise person(along with my friend fokion)and i will try to post safer comments from now on as i may lead the unwise into troubles.
Where is the spare tire inside the longbodied sporty?Is it in the floor on is it mounted on the side?I like the idea of the tire on the roof.It use to be i could'nt pull my trailer because the spare tire would come in contact with the fifth wheel.But ,with the 3in. lift installed,will fabricate a drop attachement for the hitch ball and the spare tire will clear.
