Nice and light and won’t have to worry about corrosion. Looking to get some things to strap to her now. Suggestions!? I’m looking at the smittybilt RTT. Installing some brake/turn signal lights on the top bar. Texas requires them. Rack blocks my 3rd light.

    Which height and length rack is that? RTT suggestions may vary depending on the rack length.

    That there is a 18" high x 46" long.

    My personal favorite height is 14", but they're all good!!

    I ordered the 14”. The MX4 brackets added about two inches.

    Oh wow, you're right. Apparently the 7 beers I had clouded my vision.

    No worries! Haha. Hard to see in my pictures. Just would like to thank you guys again for the amazing customer service. Somehow the wrong top bars were shipped, I talked to Chad and he has made everything right, and some. You guys definitely have my business. Loving the new rack! Can’t wait to get her all setup.

    I also ordered the 14" rack and am awaiting box 2 of 2 (arrives Monday). Yours looks taller than I expected a 14" and it must be due to the tonneau brackets, which I also ordered.

    @KB Voodoo out of curiosity, are the four corner angled pieces the only ones that change between the 10", 14", and 18"?

    @MisterKitchen I also ordered a Freespirit Recreation RTT that I'll pick up after my KB Voodoo rack is installed. I would say to look into their tents, but depending on how big a tent you're looking for most of their tents may be too big for the 46" rack.

    Question on install. I couldn’t figure out where to mount the top bars, directions were not clear. Is it complete preference? I’m installing my RTT (FSR High Country) today. Want to make sure the top bars are in the strongest position. Any advice?

    Yep, I noticed that. It's effectively impossible to post pictures to this forum from a mobile phone it seems. I updated the image tag just now from my desktop. Scroll back to see it!
