Well I'm headed to Death Valley next month and I need to do a few things to get my truck up to spec.
Project number one is a roof rack. I'll need it large enough to hold sleeping supply's, lights, gas, water that kind of stuff.
I can just buy one but a good one would run me a few hundred bucks. So i'll just build it.
I have wires run in the rack for 12 lights, 5 in the front, 2 on each side, and 3 in the back.
I still need to finish up the wiring in the little back area but it's all mounted on
So far I have 80 bucks in metal, paint, plugs, wires and what not. and about 2 weeks of after work time spent in it.

Forget about winning and losing; forget about pride and pain. Let your opponent graze your skin and you smash into his flesh; let him smash into your flesh and you fracture his bones; let him fracture your bones and you take his life. Do not be concerned with escaping safely — lay your life before him

Are you going to weld on some caps to the ends of the bars so you dont get moisture inside?

I want to build something like that for my Explorer. Where did you pick up the square tubing?
I had a few choices all about half a mile from my house.
I got it from K&H on main st. in riverside. I also have IMS also on main st. In riverside.
I got all the hardware from Rainbow bolt also on main st. In riverside.
I think I like living so close to all this stuff :P
If i remember correct is was .63 cents a foot for 3/4 .068 wall

Not because I thought its not an awesome job, it is for sure, it's just that when I read 'Rack' well naturally I thought...
