    they call them the 1100s, which is just over 43'' as a nominal dimension, but i'll get an actual measurement for you, just in case they did a little rounding. don't get the 800s though. they're more what you'd use fro an atv/utv. maybe samuri.....

    Gotcha. I have a little wiggle room since the back tub is 1.5''

    it'll either be these or solar panels.

    yea also a possibility. I like having open access to my bed on the sides though..so would have to come up with some sort of quick disconnect setup or something..

    Anybody here upgrade their power steering pump? Anyone able to point me in the right direction? Would also be interested in upgrading the rack if a bolt in application exists.

    I burned out my OEM pump and just burned out the pump that I replaced it with. It has a lifetime warranty through NAPA but I don't want to keep replacing pumps once a year.

    My 33's are murdering pumps, I'm sure when I move to 35's it will be the same if not worse.

    My rack has play in it, might be contributing to it. I have a replacement rack on hand, I just need to get around to putting it in. Might just pay a shop to deal with that one; I could do it but it's not going to be pleasant and if I break a high pressure line I know I'm up the creek without a paddle.

    I know with 37"s I will be killing racks all the time so I plan on either building a slider for mine or jumping up to a big boy TT rack but that's big $$$$
