    Hi Tacoma-ites. Ditching this DIY'd rack i made for a huge CVT tent. (though, it will work with many RTTs). It's all 6063 aluminum. It mounts to the bed rails and back brackets by the tailgate. I have the hardware to mount it.

    Why am I getting rid of it? My original thought was to make my own GFC-inspired shell upon which to mount the CVT, and this was the start of the prototype. But then the more I thought about it, I realized i would spend as much (if not more) time and money than if i just bought a GFC, which was looking more and more like what i wanted! Ha ha.

    It has been used one season, no cracks. Yet. I'm no pro welder. Not even close, so i accept no responsibility for what happens when you use it. Inspect and use at your own peril!

    Located in west sonoma county, CA. Part of it being FREE is you get to come get it! :)

    Thx

    5' or 6'?

    I'll take it but won't be up that way for another week or so. You ever in the east bay/peninsula?

    6'. No plans in the near term to leave the compound. LOL. I don't think it's going to go, but I'm leaving it up for grabs until it's gone. That said, check in closer to when you can come up.

    This thing is still available! I have been given a deadline! I need to get rid of it by Xmas either to one of you or chopped in to bits for scrap! Remember… it’s free! :)
