It's pretty good. Just put some 14" travel bilstein reservoirs in the back through the floor and opened the wheel wells out back. Welded in a 4" section to better stuff the 35's so I had to shorten the quarter panel extensions on the bumper

Still work in progress. Almost ready for welding. Being held together in this pic by a bunch of these little rare earth/ neodymium magnets for mock up. Strong little bastards!

Thanks!! I tried to put as much thought into it, with out making it over complicated. Its all tied into the uni-frame so I should be able to tow with it, It should be sweet once I burn it all together. Swing out tire carrier is next
