Welcome to the Portal, Eric - :beer:

Nice, nice looking 62. Looks like it's been a labor of love and a source of fun & adventures. As they should be.

EYE-CANDY, sweet~ How do you like the Hitch-gate carrier? Does it hold the tire in place without any movement or rattle of the pivot-arm?

I like it, it's simple. It does hang out a little more than i would like, but it doesnt rattle or move around, and I have come down on it pretty hard and it has held up.

Exactly, except the 90 still doesn't have power windows, door locks, mirrors or rear heater. IMHO though both vehicles cup holders suck :jump:

Hitch-gate rear tire carrier with dual jerry can holder, QUOTE]

Nice Cruiser! Is the Jerry can holder you have on there part of the tire carrier as an add-on or did you add that yourself?

[wheelin62]

the dual jerry can holder was custom made. It mounts to the Hi-lift mount on the tire carrier and can easily be removed.

:roost: Welcome aboard! However, there should be rules against letting people like you join.... you make people like me VERY jealous! (J/K of course). I love that hood graphic, it is a great contrast against the white.

REALLY nice truck. Enjoy your stay here!
