    I used anchor plates that you slide in your rail from one end. they have M6 or 1/4-20 thread and you bolt from the top like on the picture.

    66" design, allows for 7 or 8 crossbars, same front and rear ends.

    7 bars config

    8 bars config

    I think those are pretty much final. I tried to have the least possible amount of "unuseable" track space, i.e. that you can align a slot almost on the complete length of the rack.

    @fflfilms3

    I sent you PMs,

    please reply by tomorrow morning, as I am placing the laser order.

    I already have 5 so not taking any more after you for the pre-run.

    If everyone is satisfied then I'll have them early/mid-July

    I will be interested in the cab rack once it is finalized. I would need something a little different possibly, since I will have a GFC on my bed overhanging my cab.

    What's your opinion on powder coat vs anodizing?

    Also, I might be able to give a small discount to everyone as the first batch gets me better laser cutting prices, just like a group buy;)

    Anodizing will match the crossbars.

    I have sent a batch out for production.

    Once I get feedback I'll make an official run, should be first week of July.

    I also want to get the cab plates asap.

    Not sure yet, but I would venture to say under $550 with black ss hardware, black aluminum mounting risers, foam strip for the deflector. I'm confident it will be even lower

    Don't quote me on that please as I have not received exact pricing yet.

    p.s. the "other" one is $750 without stainless hardware, foam strip, etc.
