Love this build! Everything about it! Why did you take off all of your roof mounted stuff though? Do you have better pictures on how you put the fire extinguisher in your rear hatch area? Keep up the good work, looking forward to seeing some updates!

Thanks! Honestly its just because I needed the 3 mpg back. Having a 33" TSL up there was pretty bad. The tire is back in the factory spot and the 54" high lift just fits under the rear seat with a fold up shovel. I still have the light bar and pull it off and put it on like every other time I look at it. And yeah I can take some more pictures of the extinguisher, but it's just a plastic cabinet mount that came with the extinguisher, really simple and cheap, and it looks awesome!

Nice! I know how you feel about the mpg though. Makes a big difference that's why I haven't made a roof rack. But always a good thin to know the high lift fits under the seat, makes things a lot easier! I might have to snatch the extinguisher idea, it's too good not to lol keep it up
