Which brand tray and canopy are you going with?
I also wish to install a tray/canopy system by this time next year.

It will be Dirtbox tray and half box. We are doing a color match similar to what you see in Australia. I think it will look really good since I have the Scottish white and black accents.

Do you plan to put the spare under the tray as Jay did or install it in the tray/canopy area? I really like Jay’s under tray solution but I am concerned that running a 12.5” tire will compromise the departure angle. Jay is running a 35x10.5R17…

I’m thinking of running the full canopy system but should I have to mount the spare on top then I will likely go with a 3/4 design instead.

I am not going to go with the tire underneath. I have an idea to give me more space. So I figure I would run it on half box wall. When I am running the set up camping gear, I'm going to lay it flat on the flat tray. Then but a metal shelf that sits on top of tire. Using the L take that is on the canopy wall and the rear rack. I am all about flexibility as my truck needs to do pretty much everything. Haul dogs, camping, dump runs, hauling bikes, skis. You get it.

My half box will have a fridge drawer and then when I need more running an elements fridge outside.

QM MODS UPDATE
He added a 168 litre Brown Davis aux fuel tank, JMACX lift kit and grille spot lights. Ronny did not say which grille lights, but they are super bright.

Ronny most likely has the electronic adjustment version of the 2.5 Alphas from JMACX. JMACX are working on Alpha 2.0 shocks but they are not electronic adjustment just manual only. Plus the Alpha 2.0 are not yet released for the INEOS, rather they are not on the JMACX website.

How does it drive Ronny? "It drives phenomenal now (expletives deleted)".

This show is recorded after his return from the 4WD and Adventure show in Sydney.

Mainly a tour of the full canopy. Ronny is now on a 2 week desert trip testing the QM.

Looks like the Alpha shocks (electronic) are a similar thing that Kinetic Suspension (now owned by Teneco) developed many years ago, they used a central computer controlled hydraulic "block" to reduce the flow of fluid from the shockies from one side to the other . I took a prototype out for a spin in a Jeep Grand Cherokee and it behaved very much like what Ronny's described. Developed where I live in a tiny town in Western Australia
