Very cool. I fab alot of stuff and always looking for ideas. I love to do some dimple die stuff to but in your case I'm no sure it would help. Look good, but not necessary.
Thanks

Mendota Ranch in Texas? I follow that guy on YT. He flys helicopters and has folks hunt from them too. Cool channel.
Those pics were just outside Crystal River FL.

No but sounds like a good gig for a young couple. Be advised tho, you're working and time off may be tough to explore.
And finally, you're welcome in Missouri, we have plenty of space.

Those are some happy overlanders! Welcome to here. I just rolled thru Mississippi during the holidays. Enjoyed the ride.
Enjoy, be safe and explore.

Yeah this fellow is very correct. I'm a former Tacoma guy and now have a F250. I'm old as the roads I drive so the idea of me continuing to cling to cliffs is out of the question. This F250 just won't cut it. If you're a young fellow and want to do the heavy rock crawling, high altitude mountain...
You shouldn't lose a bead on a simple air down. Now if your rock crawling or some other crazy stuff maybe try it. I've dismounted hundreds of tires and any compound will probably cause some damage to the bead when removing it. Or worse yet if you have to do a patch on the trail, you may not be...
So understanding how much weight it will take needs understanding how it's built. Without some serious reinforcement I don't think it will fly even distributing the weight out to the sides. That's a lot of weight when you crawl up there for a good night's sleep.
Just my .38 cents.
