I am going to build a custom roof rack and will be mounting my spare up there. The rack will be low mounted, maybe an 1" off the roof. I have read all the debates of on the roof or on a rear carrier and my decision is going to be on the roof.
My question is, where is it better to mount the spare, near the front or near the rear? I was thinking of building something similar to the Gobi rack ( http://www.gobiracks.com/Jeep/ ) but then I was thinking what would be better, back or front mounted?
Ideas? I have been searching , a few other forums and Google trying to find something I like and then doing a modified copy of something. I have a few cool ideas that I will use.
Thanks and I will post pics of whatever I end up building.
