    Guestimate the cost, and I'll play. Also, would totally dig it if I could throw the UpTop Overland eX rack on top of it.

    I could. Just need the truck here for a few measurements before I start building. Other than that the process is the same for every set of sliders I build: measure, design, fab, paint, install.

    Haha. It's honestly more than likely not going to happen unless I can get a truck with a diamond back cover here for mock up. The hinge mechanism for the single plane was difficult enough with an initial measurement session, a second mock up session/ function test of the prototype and a final install/work through once everything was completely installed. That's with me building a mock-up of the diamond back out of wood here in my shop so I could work on. The owner drove over an hour one way, each time so I could work on his truck. Trying to do that for both folding planes of the diamond back would more than likely not be feasible for the amount of money/time invested. I can honestly say it would be close to $1k from initial concept to final product. I did mention earlier that with enough time + money anything could be built, but $1k (plus shipping) for what amounts to a "simple" platform wouldn't be worth it to me, but if that doesn't scare you away, we could proceed.
