    Thanks guys. Bumpers and roof rack were made by jay-fab-offroad in MI. I made the tire carrier and sliders.

    That is a nice jeep. I was wondering how much room you have from the back of the front seats to the rear hatch. I assume you cant close that if you are laying down.

    I like how you moved the license plate to one side. Is it still illuminated "enough" or did you have to move or add a license plate light?

    How is rear visibility, and were you thinking about that when you chose a side for the tire mount?

    I'm going to be building something similar in the next few months...

    Hmmm, is that a JCR slimline roof rack I see there in the first pics? If so, you wanting to sell that? *eyes greedily*

    Nice XJ! I've slept in mine several times, but yours looks way more comfy.
