Make me one for my samurai please

[@nonsequitur807]

Nice mod! Cheap too...

[@Nic26482648]

Would it be beneficial to have the spare tire mounted in such a way that the valve is not at the lowest point, to minimize the chance of water accumulation around the valve and thus speed up possible rusting around the valve?

[@FortuneOffRoad]

Not a bad idea. I just oriented it that way to make checking the pressure and air up easier. Not too worries about rust in my area, plus I use spray paint to touch up any rust spots

nice Lincoln welder man :) rocking the fluxcore 🙏

[@FortuneOffRoad]

Saving up for a bigger welder!

[@Tunzbig]

@@FortuneOffRoad mines a lincoln 180c. I love it. you are doing just fine man.

[@itschrisb]

Keep em coming!

[@richardsingh6014]

Nice!!... won't the additional weight wear out the hinges?

[@FortuneOffRoad]

They are pretty thick metal and the bolts in the hinges are large too. So I hope not!

[@Tunzbig]

over time it can crack the steel around the hinges. recently I built a swing out tyre carrier :)

[@theKMUPPETS]

@@Tunzbig I'm hoping to build a tire carrier eventually to hold some gas and tools!

[@Tunzbig]

@@theKMUPPETS mine was dead easy to make. I made it from a stub axle from a trailer, a trailer hub some rhs steel, and a old suzuki hub. so I have a spare tyre and also a spare hub Assembly.

I like what you did. I also upgrade my oem wheel carrier long time ago..I wanted to share with you.. how can i send some pics to you?

[@samuelmedrano8800]

You should buy the dr.z rear bumper and make that vid 🥺

[@FortuneOffRoad]

I probably will! I really like how the front turned out. 🤙🏻

[@samuelmedrano8800]

Fortune and Death i bought the pair, but i asked him to not cut out the holes, and im gonna do circle 2” lights to make it look retro af, i hate the oval 6” lights lol
