3 rows flow a little better but if your over heating its not because its not a 3 row... If it helps its because ur radiator is clogged up... But sounds like just a thermostat sticking... Water pump won't make a difference either...
P.s. thus is a build thread... If u have problems from here on out they belong in tech...

Hitch mount tire carrier.
Here I box tube and cut off a old hitch welded to a ford van door hinge and rim bolted to a D30 hub extended from a liberty front shaft.
I'm not done just yet.. Still have to add a little more strength.

Meh.. Do it another time.
Reason I did this was so I could put my kayak on with out having a big tire in the way.

Do you know if people have any problems with the removable door setup where they just cut the bottom arm of each hinge off? Seems like it would weaken it too much.

u still gonna try & bring the tire a little closer to the hatch? maybe cut & re-weld a 20-25* kink in the box tube, parallel with the hatch/glass??

really like it. I was thinking about starting my spare tire carrier as well. Couldnt think how I wanted to hinge it. I want mine to swing down not off to the side. Large door hinges...Why didnt I think of that. I might roll with that idea.
