Just HIDs and LEDs for now, either tires and rims or 5100's next

 

So I'm looking to get a roof rack. I just want a good looking basket with a somewhat low profile that I can mount a 40" to the front and use the basket when I go camping etc. I know nothing about them though Any recommendations on where to start? A used one would be sweet! But I'm down to buy new. I know Yakima and Baja make them... Any other place to look and/or suggestions?

 

Pm MrGrimm he just put a real nice one on.

Greenbergler has a pretty lowprofile rack

jk

Mrgrimm has a sweet low profile rack/basket!


apples and oranges here, but I got a universal basket on ebay awhile back for $135 shipped. think I searched "black widow basket"
pretty sturdy and has been passed between my trucks like a whore.
Has 4 mounting brackets that are easily removed if you don't wanna leave it up there 24/7.




Edit:
on ebay for $124 shipped now.
dimensions are 6" tall, 39"W x 43.5"L

 

My gf wont let me go to most of them cause she is worried that all you guys are all anal explorers

but you do the meets to far away I have been to every one in and around san bernarghetto. Im waiting for the bbq meet that johny is slacking on

 

theres been meets in san beanernigro?

 

seriously don't know why this hasn't happened.

a million years ago we went on a "scenic" fire road known as sugarpine...
about half way through there was a turn out spot with tons of space and shade.
Would be sweet to get a small group together and bbq up there and have some tasty brews.

so....
this should happen soon

 

there USED to be san bernashet-hole meets. grub and beer at fridays or chilis.
kinda miss those days too

 

the reason why this hasn't happen because you guys are lazy ass never anything together.

 

ay...look here Jack...


Sunday afternoon bbq & brews @ sugarpine? 06/30/2013....

Need to txt JD and find out what fire road we ran back in the day near fontana/210 freeway. single lane all the way up... ends at a weird campsite looking area. also cool for a bbq.
view from up there..

 

haha

 

Cant go its going to be to hot...... haha sunday works for me, lets do this thing. Make sure shane can come I have read that the bears in that area like albino meat

 

you wont go ^

 

I will be there stiffler, will you ?

 

no cause I have shit to do. Plus I rather pull my teeth then hang out with you Joto's.

 

Thats right I forgot about the whole prop 8 thing this week. So where are you and your gay lover going to tie the knot ?

 

So it seems like pretty much every basket requires that you have the OEM roof "rack" and the cross bars. Any that bolt into the OEM mounting holes without the need for the oem parts?

 

Im just going to throw it out there I liked the 4runner better then the heap. Why did you sell the runner ?

 

ah damn, Just assumed you had the factory roof rack/rails.

Why cause it was Murder'd out brah? haha jk

why did i sell...
was a 5spd. at the time wifeypoo needed a 4x4 to drive to work (oak glen/snowy roads)
tried teaching her, didnt work. Long term goals for the runner- v8 and SAC. save time and money because I am a lazy @ss. the HEep already has a v8 and SFA...and automatic for the wife.

the 150hp v6 powerplant and torsion bar front IFS on the runner sucked butt too. lol

 

hahah
where is that guy at?
usually on here by now...

contact Traveler for a S&R team to go find him...
