You need a roof rack with multiple spares on top.

Ahhh, electric power steering pumps are something I’ve never touched. They sure do drive nice tho.
no, i dont

not this one.... little clunky being non standard, kinda of curious about using a new electric rack from a 2014+ but i heard they dont like oversized tirrs

Well then that’s dumb.

My AC was so cold this morning I had to turn it down to fan speed 1.
i thought about rear mounted spare but then id have to move it everytime i wanted to get in the back so fug that. shit on the roof=decreased mpg
where the donut sits there is a lot of room, will only have to raise false floor like 2" to put fullsize under, thinking just trim it out with a 2x4 and should be gtg

2x4 is what I’d do. Do you like that thing? I’ve heard they ride great on uneven gravel roads and whatnot.

i dont know about like, if i didnt "need" it for work i probably wouldnt consider buying one. a turbo engine would go a long way. its too big for what little power it has. handling rough roads is probably its strongest point. i would do 80 down some of these levees if it werent frowned upon, needs a little bit bigger tire to help roll over some stuff but again it cuts into the mpg. ill hit a washout@40 and itll fully compress suspension every once and a while but aside from those it handles ****** roads great
