    Here's some pics. I plan on getting a few more bolts and zip fasteners under there, but it's stretched very tawt for now. You can't even see the cables from the top and barely from the side. It's pretty clean and tidy other than drilling holes and routing them under the roof which no way in hell I'm gonna do...:D

    Hey fellas,

    Has anyone confirmed that the Slimline II and a Yakima Skybox are compatible? I suck at the new search function... :)

    I would love to run 2 slimline II racks on my truck in the effort to have one large and level rack platform. However during the winter months I need to run my SkyBox to accommodate all my kids ski gear. I do not want to run supplemental towers or extra cross bars. If I can swap out cross bars, then cool, but no rack on top of a rack silliness.

    I have this Skybox: http://www.yakima.com/shop/cargo/cargo-boxes/skyboxlopro

    Cheers,
    Salt

    I have a Skyboxpro but not the lo. I assume they have the same attachment claws. I don't intend on using it with the frontrunner rack cause I have Yakima's for my Pathfinder. However, I did look at them and I can't see why it wouldn't work unless of course the claw connection wouldn't reach down far enough to clamp onto the track. You could add some longer bolts and spacers if needed I would guess though.

    Installed 4 27 watt TuffLedLight.com round lights yesterday on the side if the rack and the sPOD bluetooth remote module. Works like a charm. Next are 4 Luxlighting rock lights. Then eventually I'll add another Rigid light bar up top.9be6e20a66da2f890ca6c3614d101d9c_01b3e2c613b1df248d9480347a8399cc578a9d28.jpg

    Got my rack in and put together. Ran all over town. Noone in Austin TX carries hole punch this large. So had to come back to order from Amazon I remember seeing here. Can we get some more pics of your rigs with racks. I need some motivation to get out in 104 degree sun to get this baby mounted.

    Would you mind posting a link to the Amazon punch you ordered? There were two links listed in this tread.

    Any suggestions as to where I could find one of these racks in Canada (Calgary)? Im trying to decide between the Front Runner and the Prinsu design rack. It will most likely come down to price and availability.
