    Go for it! I dropped my headliner and it wasn't nearly as rough of a project as I thought it would be!

    Dynatrac ProRock 60 Rear Axle, that is important enough.
    Did it tonight... it was a pain in the butt, mainly getting it out of the truck was the biggest and hardest part and not trying to bend it too much.

    But got it all out and ready to do the sound deadening tomorrow.

    Ok now I'm impressed.. how did you get it out without bending? I just dropped it in the cab and then worked above it.

    I had to bend it a little bit, but essentially have to have the rear driver side seat removed, no headrests, and then have the front seats folded up and all the way forward and I was able to get it out.

    It rebounds pretty well and once back installed, should not have an issue with it or anything.

    Will see how tomorrow goes as far as getting the material installed and all that.

    Just made the leap of faith on a purchase of the Prinsu. Thanks for all the info supplied to make my decision, hoping it is the right one as I have done so much research. Now it is just having patience and waiting for it to come.

    I'd like to know this also. Just found out about these earlier today in this thread. They look like they fit into the slots on the bars. I'm wondering how much the move around and if they make any noise.

    What do y'all use to mount spare tire on the rack...securely? ... aka a) not going to fly off when off road under heavy abuse, and b) not easy to steal

    Also just purchased one! Hope it comes in time for a camping trip at the end of September. Are you putting a light bar on it? I ordered it with the cutout for a 40" light bar, but didn't get a bar yet. I like the Heretic look, but wish it could be all black like the Rigid Industries Midnight series. Will have to do a little more research.

    Would definitely check these out man:

    https://www.theretrofitsource.com/assemblies/off-road-lighting/xtorch-40-light-bar.html

    I personally have no firsthand experience with em, but they get amazing reviews on here and they've got something like a 10 year warranty I believe. I'm in the exact same boat as you- and this will be the route I go. You can't beat the price, and they're low profile. Personally, I think they look the best on these racks- just my opinion.

    That one is definitely on my list. Thanks! I do need a low profile one so I can transport canoes.
