    I was thinking rigid from the 2 side mounting bolts in the light, guess that's being copied now too lol.

    I was gonna say if you have a $1200 light why complain about $90 brackets.

    Well, that's what I call it, not sure he has an 'official' name. :cookiemonster:

    Yeah, Give DSM a call, they can configure the Kings in any way you want them.

    IMO the All-Pro rack is too tall. It puts the RTT too far up into the wind and makes COG too high as well. If they offer a shorter version it would be fine.

    For comparison sake, the top of the tubing on mine to the top of the bed rail is ~13". This pic gives you a good idea of how high the rack is in relation to the cab height.

    I don't know how much, but they say you can cut down the rack... but yeah I agree... I like yours a lot. I'll probably end up "borrowing" the idea lol.

    Yeah I just got an all pro expedition rack, the guy shortened it to 14' from the bed rail. Still a bit high, just have to mock up the RTT.

    Finally fixed my steering rack misalignment, disconnected the sway bar, rebuilt my starter and finally installed a used set of coilovers from another member. No more stock or sub stock height for this guy!

    Contacts shot in the starter.

    Ha well he should coin that term!

    Awesome when it comes time to do that I will.

    Yeah the All-Pro rack is too tall for me, I prefer flush with the cab or shorter. So that's what I'll go with

    Do these last longer than the stock bushings? Mine are already worn out too.

    I went ahead and ordered them. I've replaced everything else, steering still vague, was able to move the rack by hand back and forth and saw the bushing play.

    If you buy the weld together pack rack kit from All-Pro you can cut it down to whatever height you prefer..

    Not exactly. The way the tubes are bent there is a minimum amount and I believe it is 14".

    My old bed rack was at 14.5" for those wondering.
