I have made everything for it, tire carrier, front bar, rocksliders, etc. My fiance is already throwing a fit about it. I have actually considered a small rope step, but I know she would slam it in the door all the time.
I found a pic of my grandpa while we were working on it. Looks like he's takin it easy.

No your grandpa looks like he's been working. Your buddy in the clean shorts and white tennis shoes is the one who looks like the slacker!
Nice fab work.
I've had mine lifted etc. for several months now and it takes a while to get all those little things done just right...or forever!

Mine is 42" and that's tall enough for me. Honestly I was more concerned with strength than height.
If mine was another 1/2" higher it would not fit in the garage.
