    Unless you go longer than the chassis i dont think you have much choice or keep it no wider than the body. I guess you are trying to keep it functional as opposed to just somewhere to keep a spare and maybe a swag ?

    Yep the tyre draw will house spare tyre, jack, spares, n ****.....

    will have one big spacecase or ally box in the middle for fridge stove and gas bottle etc swag will live in the cab i think....

    It's getting hard now!

    Day 23



    What do you guys think about this front mount? I know it will take a load form above but i am not sure about the side ways strength I was thinking of putting a X between the 2 mounts but i have a feeling that if i rest the tray on something hard enough i will tear the factory mount off not mine... :x




    I started the lower section this arvo but i cant do much more until i get the long range tank in place...




    This is how it's mounted to the rear. I uses the same bolt holes as the tow bar would.

    Day 25

    Pulled a rear spring out to see if the tyre will rub anywhere..





    I am happy with that! For those playing at home from the center of the hub to the bottom of the tray i have a little over 720mm.

    This was going to be my extra air tank but it failed horribly... leaks internal :x

    Looks good anyway...



    These are the new mounts that will be welded to the the rear outriggers.







    Will gusset these also.
