Here's some ideas:Originally Posted by Maddawg
Thankfully I have roll up doors. Hadn't thought of up clearance, but my Avalanche with 4'' lift fits with extra room, so I think it should be alright. But the old adage, measure twice and cut once applies in all cases.Yes, I was looking at yours this morning, nice rig Ldub! I doubt if I will be adding a roof basket or lights at the top. One thought I have is removing the backseats and adding a spare tire mount inside. Any driving lights will be on the front.
1) With my rear seat removed (and long gone!), I laid mine flat (31.5"),
then used 2 ratchet straps in an "X" configuration woven in and out of the spokes and secured to each of the factory metal tie downs on the floor. IIRC my straps were rated at 7,500 lbs.
2) Rowhard did a spare tire mount in the rear, with the tire in an upright position.
3) I believe JollyRogerVX made a spare tie down like the ones you see in the bed of pickups...tire is up at a 45 degree angle.
