You will likely be ok. There are a few spots that you will need to be careful. Mostly it’s tail drag/drop off stuff
But if you find some free time, you may want to consider it

I’m going to try and build my spare tire carrier for the rear...
I need one of those...I don't know if I can get a 37 to even fit inside.
So has anyone put their spare tire carrier on the front bumper vs the rear? Might be easier since you don't have to deal with the tailgate. Just throwing a thought I had out there, feel free to say it's a dumb idea, haha.
Only concern may be heating or hanging it too low so you bump that tire on the rock first instead of the ones climbing it
A lot of extra weight on an already heavy end of the truck. Would it block enough air at speed to not cool the truck?
Mine does
I'll
post pics when I get home
I already have a huge winch bumper on the front.
37 will fit, standing up or laying down. I’ve had mine mounted both ways.
Add to my list: mudflaps. Got pulled over for not having any, no ticket though, just a warning.
Man I love not having to worry bout that or emission testing.
Speaking of which, gotta get it to pass emissions by the end of the month...
Dislike...
Thank goodness for antique plates. No emissions or safety for my rig.
6 more years (if I stay here in Utah) until I can do that. Utah no longer requires safety inspections thank goodness, it wouldn't pass that either.

Fixed my fuel system, fuel now goes in the tank properly. New filler neck, hoses, etc. and fuel goes from the tank to the TBI properly. All new lines / hoses, new fuel pump.
Paying for CK5 paid for itself again. I had fuel from the tank to the fuel pump, its mounted at the frame. Made noise like it should and check engine light acted like it should. Wasn't getting fuel to the TBI though. It would run if you put fuel in the throttle body. When I pulled the line at the fuel pump on the tank side I filled several gas cans, nothing on the other side of fuel pump. Some research here said even though fuel pump making proper noises it could be going bad. Bought a new one and voila'. When I took the pump out no fuel in the line this time. New one made same noises but I could hear the change when it started pumping fuel. 10 times of key on and off then hit the switch and purr like a kitten.
Short delay in message bear cub on my deck trying to get into my BBQ grill, yelled at it and momma bear stuck her nose through the deck railing.

Wifey's Heep is running, passed emissions and fully registered and insured. My truck is back in the game after my unfortunate ignition rotor incident.
Both need a little more wiring...
Mine needs greased. Also need to pull the driver's front wheel off and see what is causing a clicking sound. These last few months have been exhausting...

You guys crack me up.
