anyone wanna buy this beast?
seems like a good deal but I have no idea, the chief deputy for the S.O. has it parked in my front yard to sell it
$4500 seems like a steal but I'm just basing that on size, I have no idea wtf I'm talking about - its a 1986 Jayco

you would need a longer hitch to clear your spare tire but otherwise you're good to go

Dude...custom fifth wheel hitch in the cargo area, to the frame rails, chop the slant-back portion of the cage and you're golden.

perfect fit, pull your tailgate off and put a 5th wheel hitch on the floor of the jeep.
