I'm building a new hardtop for my Jeepster that will be greatly influenced by early Rovers and FJ troop carriers. With a barn door in the rear, I would prefer not to mount my spare off the back like most Jeeps do. It would hinder being able to open the door from the inside.
I run 35" tires, so carrying the spare inside will not work. I'm not really a fan of lugging that thing onto the roof. I thought about mounting it directly to the rear door, but am worried about the stress it would put on the hinges and so forth. Did I mention the hardtop will be made out of aluminum?
Any ideas?
