Its a daily drive so most wheeling gear is packed in plastic and metal boxes that fit the truck bed for max' storage efficiency.

Thanks for the tip on the gears.Corey..
Impressions of how the T-2 carrier's held up for you? Mine's still going strong after 3 seasons of (ab)use.
Also, *preferably* (Pro-Bike Tech/Fitter..advise) when transposting the bike(s) put them in mid and mid gearing. It will both give room and not allow the derailleur to get bashed, but also prevent any possibility of a dropped chain (IE: if rear hanger is bent or front der drops it). IOW..no chain damage after hitting the trail for a while by it getting stuck behind the cassette or the cranks.) You'd be surprised at how many people ignore this advise and keep us techs in the money during peak season.![]()
Mine on the Rubicon yesterday.
I love your truck.
