    Thanks! I'm just figuring out what is next! I have a crazy idea for a softopper reinforced by a bed cage skeleton with a rack on top of it but I'm running it by Billy from bruteforce to see if he's up to the challenge of fabricating it. It wouldn't be for a while, but I think it would be awesome.

    I love the look of softoppers but I want to put a rack on the top. I think Prinsu's toprack would be perfect if I could get some kind of skeleton. Just have to figure out how to make the holes in the top for the bolts water tight.

    Nice. Sounds like you've got a plan. I'm dreading the CPA.

    I bought mine from a member who built them but didn't want them. I have some of the materials to build a set with any headlight housing that I'll be selling soon.

    Finally home! I'm just adding these pics to my build thread!


    Geared up and ready to go with the new CVT tent.

    Got to wakeboard with some scenery.

    We went and saw Horseshoe bend before making our way towards the south rim of the Grand Canyon.

    Next stop was Havasupai Point at the Grand Canyon. It's about 40 miles off road. At first it is easy fire road, but recent monsoons have left the last 10 miles of the path in shambles. It was tough at times and I was babying the truck so we didn't get stranded.

    We crossed the Grand Canyon railroad and I saw a photo op.

    It has rained recently so I had some fun.

    We were lucky to avoid rain while we were there.

    Finally we made it and I got to try out the new CVT Mt. Cayley tent.

    Thanks! I've got some secret goodies coming up in the next little while. Then I am done modding for a long time since I'm going back to school and will be between jobs.

    I'm really excited about the next steps though. I think I'm close to being prepped for Rock Therapy next year which is my goal.
