DIY prinsu style shell rack

Getting cut, well I think they are cut only powder coat missing.

Should ship Aug 16 as I have a last minute business trip to Brazil. In the meantime we might have the new mounts available.

 

Front holes 2 1/8 and rear 2 7/8. This is center of hole to center of hole.

 

Thanks so much!

 

For those that have done this, what should I expect to pay for the crossbars and feet? Also, slightly off topic, how much wind noise is everyone's cab Prinsu making at highway speeds?
Thanks in advance!

 

Mine has very little noise with the faring in the lowest position and some edge trim to make it contact the roof. I have a 40” lightbar cutout too.

 

$85 for 4 feet and $120 for 6 feet (if we don't have our own mounts ready).
Crossbars are $21.39 each but there is shipping.

 

My total was 160 after shipping for 6 bars, and I’m in the same state as them.

 

Ok thanks! Just getting a feel for what I’m in for. Can’t wait for the plates! I have two Thule bars now and they just don’t cut it.

 

Ok thanks for the info! I just installed a rack that was custom built for another member, and I bought 3rd hand. It’s been in my garage forever, but I finally got it mounted. I love it but it is quite noisy. Maybe I will just do Prinsu up front as well?
Has anyone ever done sound dampening in their headliners?

 

Yes, there's even a thread on removing the head liner and sound deadening. You need to close the gap between the roof and the deflector.

Nice looking truck.

 

I will investigate further. I didn't find much, but I also haven't tried to hard.

 

I added the link above.

 

Thanks!

 

Cool! Appreciate that.

 

I'm digging my list of subscribed posts. Just wish there was an easy way to annotate them for specific posts.

 

Thanks again! Just peeked at your build thread. I am a Carpenter also so will def be reading it through.

 

If you right click the post number and copy link address, you can bookmark that address and it will take you to that specific post. That's how I do it, And then label the bookmark with what the post is about.

Hopefully thats what you were talking about

 

Not much carpentery in it but remodeling gives me a different outlook on modding my taco. Granted it's paid for and not leased and I don't plan on selling it until it's buggered so cutting or drilling doesn't put me off the way it does for some. Only a year in and still just getting started.

 

Oh, and I'm forgetting the feet. I have a LB so 8 bars and 6 feet. Basically about $350 shipped it sounds like?
