Looks good.. Nice work.

Just a suggestion, its prolly not a good idea to post a list of belongings you carry along with your license plate number on the internet.

Good eye. Fixed it.

I've got the front side (behind the rear seat) set up. I've decided to attach it directly to the body. I'm going to weld up a frame for it and attach the spare tire mount to that. Then attach the frame to brackets on the inner quarter. It'll make it more difficult to remove if I need room but I'll have my other Cherokee running in a few weeks. If I need to move something big I'll drive that.

That won't happen for a few days though. I am about to start the spring semester next week and I started to rebuild the back half of my dads house this week so my free time is limited.

Really like the concealment and was actually thinking of something like that to put in mine. Really nice job.

I am curious. So is it just set in there? Like sitting on top of it like a table? I love the idea of it! I wanna do this exact thing, and put carpet on top

Right now it is. I wanted to make it easy to take out in case I need the room. The problem I had was I want the spare tire mounted on top. If I get in an accident I need to make sure the tire won't take my head off, so I decided to make the frame work out of steel. The spare mount will be braced into the frame and the top will be bolted to brackets on the inner quarter panels. It wont be as easy to remove but I'll feel better putting the tire on top of it.
