Ontario BS Thread

come to my place finch and islington

 

Maybe next time, we are supposed to hold social distancing lol, I can wait, trails aren't open for another month.

plenty of time to wait

 

all good

 

clean and paint hope it will look good

 

Nice. I'm next in line

 

Are you running a crawlbox? Mine still has plenty of space to the T-case actuator

 

yours is further, mine is closer actually, but having extra insurance doesn'thurt plus extra points for cool look in a #tuner world when I go to Strada

 

Good job cleaning those skids up... they look nice and fresh now!

 

eeeyup. 6 more inches is all she needed.
it was a bit messy since i didn't rip off the covers, but decided to say "fuck it" and rivNUT straight into the side of the bed.

now i can flip the 2nd portion of the tonneau cover straight up and tall, will full access everything inside. Everything else still slides in and out smoothly.





( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

but i can definitely say the time has come to say it's done.

 

how in the hell did i miss the part where your using bread trays as overland racks
And where do i sign up to aquire some

 

I was looking at your setup at the last meet.
I think it's a fantastic idea.

Little bit of paint and you could sell more of them on the marketplace.

 

i showed them off at the last group meetup

They are industrial strength plastic so it won't rust, super lightweight, as well as modular and stackable, comes in many many sizes (it's stupid how many sizes they have but i have the smallest ones like), also a fraction of the price of their steel counterparts, AND they have foldable rails so i can include larger objects!

downside; they're bed trays
upside; they're bread trays and are cool asf
laugh all you want, i like them


I had a baker who closed and sold the business since they're expecting a 3rd kid and i nabbed a few of them. but honestly, you can probably find them behind any fortinos or denigers

some more photos on the build page
i also like them since i can thread 2x4's into the cabin from the outside while still having the racks on, just slide them to the sides and there is the perfect amount of space between em that it opens the rear window up.

 

Before it was milk crates being used for storage of records, now it's bread tray's for overlanding. I can see this being the start of a new trend.

Some Austrailian guy is going to make a video of it soon.

 

I only have 4 skids so i'm pricing them the same as FrontRunner bedracks when i paint and sell them

 

I finally got around to cutting up a length of unistrut to mount my traction boards under the bed cover.


I can use standard unistrut hardware now to make a rack for traction boards and my hi-lift.


Now to make some custom brackets to mount on there.

I might make a couple more of these now... to go across the back. To mount some....

breadbaskets!

I can see the forum topics of the future... discussing if Wonder or Demptsters are better...
Well we got Bimbo bread here in Hamilton...

I'm gonna get me some Bimbo baskets for the back of my truck....

that can make a good conversation or two... load up the Bimbo Baskets... time to party...

I got a bit of a bug right now, think it's just a cold though.. no temperature, but no way I can go outside now... lol

 

So if everybody is putting bread racks on their trucks does that make them essential service vehicles?

 

that will be the day i am labeled as a true hispter

Dibs on the bed rack and front bumper

 

OUTA MY WAY COPPERS.
I'M AN ESSENTIAL SERVICE BECAUSE I HAVE LIFE SAVING BREAD IN THE BACK.
YOU CAN TELL THIS IS LEGIT BECAUSE OF THE BREAD RACKS.

ONLY PEOPLE IN THE BREAD INDUSTRY HAVE THOSE.
