LP Bed rack and LP basket

Final stage of the LP bed rack as well as the LP basket. The rack sits 10" tall off the bed rails and the basket is only 3.9" tall. The tubes on both the rack and basket are adjustable to fit anyone's needs such as mounting a shovel, Hi-Lift jack or adjusting the basket tubes forward or backwards to fit their snow board mounts, or whatever it may be.

I will post pictures this next week and post them on the truck. I am also going to do a group buy in of 5 if its still allowed.

Very nice

 

Thank you sir

 

Yes I like it. Sub'd for pictures

 

The price for the LP Bed rack is for SB $450+shipping or $475+shipping for LB. I will have a cost for the aluminum basket this next week.

How high does the base sit above the roof?

You may think of an removal option for the side rails and the ability to r and r as needed.

 

Per op's first post, looks like altogether 14" over bed rails. Should be under roof line.

 

The rack sits 10" off the bad rails, then if the basket is on the rack, it will add another 4" inches. So 14" total off the bed rails.

As far as the side rails or tubes go, they are all bolt on. A couple reason why it was designed that way. One, saves on shipping cost, two, I or anyone can adjust the height of the tubes to fit your needs or likes. If someone wanted to remove one to access the side of the bed for any reason, it would take a couple minutes to remove 4 bolts to do so.

I should read more. Thanks.

 

Ok, SO I got the first prototype back late this afternoon. I got them cleaned up and dimpled died. I will be busy over the Holiday weekend so I will not be able to finish up everything 100%, but here are a couple teaser pictures... Thoughts..

that looks nice. i like that its different from all the rest.

 

Thank you That was my goal, to be different and stand out, that way if someone saw it, they knew exactly where they got it from.

 

Keep it coming!

 

Very cool!

 

More this next week

 

cool stuff I like, ever get pricing on aluminum and what is the structural strength?

 

I got pricing on the basket out of 1/8" aluminum but I am redesigning it do get cost down some.. The rack is made from steel.. The aluminum basket will be plenty strong for a basket.

 

Ok, went in for a bit to finish leaning up the parts and I dimple died the second upright. As you can see in the pictures, the tube will be welded to the tabs and both the sides and top center bars will be adjustable for anyone's needs.

 

Here is the revised basket for those of you who were curious. And again it will be made from .1875 (1/8) aluminum.

 

Is it possible to make it taller to go pass the rear window and sit flush with the top of the tacoma?
