Motobilt diff covers, Brawlee tailgate light, Jammock, rock lights, and a hitch mounted cargo basket.

Brett, would you share with me details on the hitch mounted cargo basket, like who makes it and where to get it: maybe a link?

It's collapsibility to open the cargo door when it's otherwise not storing gear is quite ingenious.

My wife got it from Amazon. Unfortunately, it doesn’t clear the tire for me. Maybe if I had a stock sized spare, a spare tire relocation bracket, or a 2 inch drop hitch extension (if those even exist). I’ll have to work with it to see if I can come up with something.

Thanks...I imagine you could always distance it from the rear of the rig with a hitch extension. Harbor Freight has them cheap. This, if nothing else, would allow you to open the cargo door at least partly, if not completely, to get gear out, irrespective of what height you've set the basket's walls at.

That’s a good idea. I’ll look into it. Here is the current situation...

Well, I ordered my TeraFlex Falcon Nexus EF 2.2 fast adjust steering stabilizer on Black Friday, but there was a national backorder on them and it's not being delivered until tomorrow. I guess it now qualifies as a Christmas present! :)

If I may, an accessory for your accessory, or at least some friendly advise....:)

If you're going to open the carpeting below the mat's drain plugs to the ground below, think twice, of at least watch this video regarding the problems and solutions with same if you haven't already.
