    Are your rear Icons 2 or 2.5 inch? Did it cost a lot more to get them custom length? I would like to get Icons for the rear again, had to pull mine when I went higher then 1.5 inches.

    Thanks!

    2". Didn't cost to much to get them custom. Talk to sunny at downsouth motorsports he'll set it up. Build time was about three weeks. Let me know if you need anything else.

    Pulled of the campers shell for the next couple of months. Going to pick up my bed rack next Monday. I like the look without the shell.

    Sometimes I wish I wouldn't have sold my camper shell. I could buy it back, but I have nowhere to store it and my toolbox would have to come off... Where do you store all of your tools?

    When wheeling I have a pretty compact kit I take with me, plus some spare parts. Lucky I have a double cab!. I have a garage and a big back patio where the camper shell can chill.

    Sure is! It doesn't just look good, the thing is built like a tank!

    I'm still getting use to it!


    A member that's a welder by trade is making it for me. I'm picking it up today. Very similar to Box Rockets bed rack. A little taller so the arb fridge can fit underneath. I also picked up a tool box to run with the bed rack so the trucks look is going to change a little. The plan is to put the camper shell for late fall and winter.

    Thanks man!

    Looks great man! I like the look without the camper too. I would definitely run the camper in the winter though.

    Man truck is amazing. Expecially the rear bumper. That is my next plan saving up for a front plate bumper at least. Since I have my hi lift on the camper. Ur truck reminds me of mine minus the bumpers an all check it out. Again great truck.

    I like the look also! I just want to have options, camper shell on camping trips, bed rack and tool box on wheeling trips. Having the rtt on top was a little sketchy, I must have hit every tree branch, also looked like I had a bug collection going on on the front of it when it was folded up!

    We just went wheeling at Uwharrie 4 wheel park in NC, ever been? We've been doing a trip every two months since the begining of the year. You should try and make it out!
