    Yup. I know TW threw a shit fit b/c it wasn't different enough to the Prinsu, but I have no complaints and it was less than $500 with 7 crossbars shipped to my door.

    Pretty stupid when just about every product on this site is a Slightly different copy of something else. His prices must have went up, but it was still much cheaper than the others and he uses all the same materials. Seems to be a solid rack and should carry my kayaks well.

    Now that is old school. Haven't heard that in a few decades. Always love the lead in "Now first".

    He definitely copied the rack and made a few changes. He uses smaller spacers and has an extra hole cut for straps towards the back. I bought mine on a BF deal. I'll buy a camper rack from him when the time comes.

    My sympathies. Hope all the aggravation works out for the best. Somewhat minor but dealing with an infected tick bite myself on top of back (swollen up about four inches around the bite). Doc said it doesn't look like Lyme disease but he took some blood to make sure. Rattlesnake didn't get me but fricken ticks were everywhere.

    Sup Johnny. Tearing out swollen up hard wood plank flooring and planeing out new wood to replace. Ice maker leaked and been on my to do list for a few years. Getting house ready for a potential sale. We want to build a barndominium out in the country.

    smaller spacers? I did have to stack a couple extra washers to get the bolt spaced out enough.

    To my understanding they were smaller. Being an Auburn fan, I could have misread that though :rofl:

    Ticks are dangerous. Keep an eye on that.

    Bumper is getting closer. I hope to finish the hoops tomorrow. I finally tacked the center one on and still coping and fitting the headlight hoops.

    No clue. I haven't began looking. I'm very budget minded but also very conscious adding weight too. I'd like to add some lights in the bumper first. No idea what to get there either. Mainly something to fill the two 4" outer holes.

    Real talk though. Did you have to add a washer or 2 when you installed your rack?
