Mreimann's Truck

But also, I should update this thread with the new truck

 

Thanks man lol! I always liked how it stayed off the bed rails it self. Still have your adjustable tie down points. @05tacomabro has a bedrack that follows the same idea but built differently. You built yours right?

 

Yeah, made that one and pretty much copied the same design for the bed rack on my new truck. Just added ballistic Fab I.D. tube clamps over the frame tie-in points so I don't have to spend 20 minutes taking out the bed bolts and another 20 minutes trying to line up the rack in the bed when I put it back in.

Also added some quick fists on the underside of the rack to hold a shovel/axe and such.

 

You had me at new truck?? What is it?
That's a great idea for times you need or want to take it out its not a complete chore. I've also always like the strength having it where it sits. Putting it on the bed rails always sketched me out for long term stress on the bed panels and what not.

 

I thought I saw the old rig on CL

New one looks fresh!

 

Yeah I picked up a 2015 limited. Swapped over some of the suspension, wheels and tires, and built a similar bed rack. Aluminum bumpers and skid plate.

And having the bed rack off the bed sides is a must. Lots of trucks are having issues these days with bed splitting.

Thanks, yah, if you want a second truck, just make me an offer haha

 

Oh man love those front ends! Can't wait to see it unless you have some pictures. Agreed with the bed rack. I've never seen that happen but heard of it that's some crazy stuff.

 

Good Lord it's beautiful ! When are you going to visit Tucson again?

 

Thats a good question. My parents sold their house and moved to Denver, so I don't have any family there anymore

 

Oh dang CO is home!! I guess when am I coming up there lol is the real question. When did that happen?

 

Some new photos

 

Finally got the bed rack powder coated and added a bike rack to it. Won't have an RTT mounted up there, so I'm planning to fill this thing with recovery gear and bikes.
