    All your pictures are huge and take some time to "resize" (4128x2322) :( I'm just jealous of your camera. Also it was cool to meet you last weekend.

    This may get you some more room for your OBA install. A different approach to a snorkel

    Another revelation about the rack that I will share with you folks. The rear HAS TO BE HIGHER! I installed the wind fairings on both the rear and front racks. Well with the feet I was shipped for this rack, the fairing SITS ON THE ROOF of the shell. Remember how I was 'wishing' that the 2 racks be the same height? Well, to my delight and surprise, there are different sized (height) feet for them. (I was up all week and weekend trying to get things ready in anticipation for this event. Really spread myself thin...)

    [​IMG]

    Got the two racks in alignment also. One of my buddies still doesn't trust the rack. Couldn't get him to stand up on it with me. He finally came up there and sat on it after a little coaxing. Still was scratching my head over the situation. I mean, he is my climbing partner. I would not put him in jeopardy, he literally has my life in his hands at any given time.

    Not sure the height of mine

    In my haste to complete the install finally after busting my knuckles, I realized the clearance issue immediately. My fatigue was unbearable at that point. Had to finish it.

    Some food for thought on regearing that I was happy to learn after watching this video.
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2SX8aUM03XE

    Going to the 35's I want, will need to re gear. Great time to install the ARB lockers if I can find them at a great price. Damn, this is getting costly. At least I can say I am doing it the right way and not skipping anything.
