just swapped tyre carrier from RH side to LH side !!
to help with weight distribution !!
also angled the mount , so I can fit my 33" on !!!!

BUT HOLY CARP.................33" looks big on the back of a Zook !!!!

Holy chit it actually holds? When i had the pissy little 215/75 on there it ripped a split beside the hinge and snapped a tyre carrier in half. Good luck

on top of the tailgate , it is already a double skin panel !!
on the back , inside I,ve put a 3mm panel , that fills between the end of the tailgate & the 1st suppurt brace !!
no props yet !
only done 2 trips !!

2 trips?? That was ages ago!!
Seriously though so you just plated the inside, any sign of bending?
This gives me hope I might give it a crack.

Looks like you tring to drive 2 wheels ontop of the rut or whatever it is, there seems much less interesting lines available there.
Yeah OOpsy

I know how you feel moose I worked nights for 5 years then went to days but every weekend. So I told them wheeling comes first ( and family? ) they didnt agree so I got a new job normal hours plus more money!!
