Damn! That is a HUGE mud hole lol i had to get a new car (a truck) cause my hatch went nuts. I got a 4cl, 2 wheel drive, king cab Nissan Frontier (2002)...cant mod it until i get it paid off but im sure youd have plenty of ideas for me ha

Its only a 2wd but it'd be sweet to be able to do stuff offroad you know? Maybe make it a 4wd w/ a v6 or somethin? ha i dont have to worry about that for a while tho..

yea, you can make it yourself real cheap, all you need is some 1in square tubing and a grinder, i used a regular skill saw that you cut wood with and went to the hardware store and bought a metal cutting blade for it for $2.50. then make your measurements and cut the tubing to make your basket, then after everything is ready you can have someone weld it all together for you, it only costed me a total of $7.50 to make that basket. i just finished the lights on the basket. its gonna look really nice when i install it tmw.
