Gonna put the spare on the rear doors or are you rolling the dice on whether you'll ever need it?

Yeah, Spare is going on a tire rack that is being built onto the rear bumper that I'm having made. Not sure when I will get the bumpers from the builder though. Right now the spare is just laying on the floor in the cargo bay.

Haven't gotten that far yet but if it becomes an issue which it sounds like it has from people's prior experiences, I'm thinking I can run a snorkel similar to what we did with our STS's back in the day and run it inside into the fender or something.

To be honest I have no idea what kinda room I have on my front accesories drive. I've never had to get into it nor can I see it with it being buried inside that tiny engine compartment. It might be a very good option though so I will keep it in mind. I'd much rather like to make something like that work as opposed to a separte compressor between the frame rails.

Haha, you just have to give her a reason to want a van! Try to sell her on the benefits of camping with a van!!
