Maybe consider a Jeep steering shaft upgrade rather than mess with another rag joint...I've done this on two of my trucks, easy peasy upgrade.

What a bout making a custom tent to fit your truck bed? You're pretty creative. But don't know if time is on your side.
Google search shows some decent ideas.
Thanks. I want to use these on my '89 K1500 GMC RCLB. I'll be watching to see if you have to do any grinding on the stops due to reduced turning radius like I've read in other posts.
Same...in Colorado the law requires us to run an actual license plate. Been pulled over for not having one but cop was cool and just gave me a warning.
