I had the old man emu Dakar suspension when I was running a softoper/bedrack/ rtt. It held the weight great offroad. The RTT sitting above the cab does affect the mileage but I stopped caring about mileage long ago.

Did you just move the spare to the swing arm ? Did you do anything with that space and the chain and stuff? And I live in maine and there is a law that says that the rear tag must be lighted do you have that issue there and if so how do you address that? I have my annual vehicle inspection coming up? Thanks, I'm very much a novice but am learning.
I cant fit a 35 under the bed so I need to keep it on the spare swing out. The bumper has lights for the license plate but the tow point is behind that and because my trailer used a max coupler I cant run a flip up license plate bracket. I relocate the plate to a visible spot when I tow and I have been towing so often I have not put it back. If I were going in for an inspection I would just put the plate back where it belongs under light. I'm not worried about a fix it ticket for the plate lights at the moment cuz they could also hit me for

Wow! Nice work on the rig! I really like what you did with it. Been wondering if I should pull the trigger on LT suspension. I'd have to take out KDSS and make it basically a race truck but your photos make me want to get a Tacoma. Very awesome rig. Should be able to tote a little one around in that no problems. ; )
