[QUOTE="Ded Driver, post: 537445, member: 12692"] There are many versions of after-market trays available, & the steel ones are no doubt more rigid than the pressed ute body that comes off, so I wouldn't be too worried about compliance by putting a steel tube under your tray. You don't want to be lifting directly on the aluminium, but would be better bolted across the chassis rails than lifting your vehicle from the bolts holding the tray to the chassis! Also, you can get a lifting lug that hooks into the slots in your (steel) rims, if you have slots. If its a tyre you want to change, well you're not suppose to change a tyre whilst the vehicle is sitting on a high lift jack. You should have axle stands under it. [/QUOTE]
