    Thanks bud, and it's not a huge deal. Just need a spot to put this lightbar. :D

    The Toytec guys were impressed with your rack on my rig last week at their customer appreciation day. They had lots of nice things to say.

    And the rack does a decent job of keeping the trees off of the roof, though I did dent one of the side rails a bit at Trees last weekend. There were lots of off camber sections with trees on the downhill side. I pushed several trees off of the roof with the rack. :D

    The doors made a ton of difference. The roof made rain a lot better. Its been a three years so I don't really remember.

    It is underway at the laser cutter. Should have an update from them by the end of the day. I expect it to be done in the next week or so.

    Looking forward to it! I trashed my stock skids this weekend, and destroyed up my low hanging crossover (caused a crease at the collector pipe). Getting the re route done this week so the timing should be perfect!

    Those tracks are perfect. That's what I used. My only concern would be how they are on the side of the shell quite a bit. (Not flat).

    I'm thinking I could make it work. Anybody have a ballpark number I should try selling the Thule rack for.

    It will work just be careful tighting down the rack. You'll see what I mean when you go to mount it.

    Awesome. I don't own this shell yet but I wanted to be sure it would work with a Prinsu rack before buying.
