    I would recommend mounting the tire on the passenger side for better weight distribution (especially if a 33-35" spare is mounted there.)

    It looks awesome.

    looks bad ass for sure! since its a 1" clearance over the cab, the rack is mounted to the bed, and the bed and cab are mounted separately on the frame, do you think there would be contact when the frame flexes?

    Coulnt you just put like a 1/2" nub on the front and sides with a soft but strong rubber piece on the bottom so if if does flex it'll just hit the rubber?

    that would prevent scratching, but then your going to dent the roof.

    who knows though, it may not even touch, we're just voicing our concerns. good to get feedback when you're building a new product.

    Thank you and yes he should see it in about a week. I just shipped all his stuff on Mon
    Yep completely bolt in .Lemme know, I can customize it to fit your needs;)
    Thanks man
    LMAO:D
    Damn Bro you shoulda stopped in.
    good point but this is goin on a wheeling and hunting rig, more for camping gear and maybe a few dead animals lol
    I was concerned about that as well, so while I was at a friend of mines shop we flexed the truck out with his fork lift both front and rear and the closest it got was about 3/4 of an inch. so I think we'll be ok :). Your point is very valid and a good question.

    Thanks man, when it was just all tack welded together I had to drive across town ( all freeway 70mph) and holy shit it was noisy, but when it was all welded and back on the truck what a difference, all the wind noise went away.
    Thank you
    Thanks Man for the kind words:)

    How much clearance do you have to leave between the rack and the cab to prevent them touching when the frame flexes?
