In bed tire carrier added to shock cage.

Had a local TTORA member over to weld up his tire carrier. As stated in the title we basically added it to his existing shock cage.



Straight, to the point. There is a LARGE gusset that we need to add in. We ran out of time today so were finishing tomorrow. The Gusset is about 8" tall and goes from side to side.. I'll add a picture of it tomorrow.

Pretty sick, I like how the shock hoop gussets allow support for the sides of the tire, looks like a perfect fit

Drop it.


Anyway. The tire thats in there is a 35".. theres almost 2 inches on each side (~1&5/8) so theoretically he could squeeze a 39" tire in there no problem..
