    Box Rocket I love your truck, probably one of the top 3 on this site. The bumper looks clean, but you've got me wanting a bed rack

    Thanks. I've had several people ask about that bedrack and if I would make more. I'm tossing that idea around, just need to gauge interest and figure out a good way to make it happen.

    mine is alittle different but I think it came out ok for a first attempt. This winter I will probably build another with a few changes. I wanted a hitch hidden behind the plate, no need for wraparound, but had to have recoverey points (next to license plate are d-ring points).

    Actually I liked different parts of Relentless and All Pro so I put them together;). It now has 1/4" shackle points welded straight through the bumper to the mounting plate.

    Cant blame me for wanting to make me own:D
    Had an offer for it, gunna let it go for $100.
