If the rear bumper is out of the question, in the bed behind the cab should be the next best place. You can get the overall height and then check with the highway dept to see what the minimum height would have to be for bridges etc. I'd put it on the drivers side, less chance of hitting trees on the right side of the vehicle. Low hanging trees are gong to be a problem, it will be an interesting vehicle, but as long as you are under the perscribed height for bridges and other objects per the state highway dept, you should be fine. 73,s, John |
