    Nice build, were there any issues with drilling around wiring or bags for the rack?

    Some said they had issues with bags being in the way, but where I drilled (which I assume is where you're supposed to) I didn't run into any problems. Placement and everything looks good..to me

    You're making me spend more money. That damn rack has been taunting me.

    Were you able to install the Prinsu rack alone and how long was your wait for an access cab? They still quoted me 6-8 weeks but from what I've been reading they aren't coming close to that estimate lately.

    If I remember right I got mine in about 5 weeks and that was before CBI took over the business. I installed it alone, yes. Measured a million times though haha

    It's a great rack, haven't used it a whole lot except for camping and my recent move. Fits the truck great, only downside is a little wind noise but it's not bad. Pros outweigh the cons definitely. Worth the money! I used an all weather silicone sealant around the holes...a lot of it because I wanted to be sure it never leaked haha. So far so good!

    Thanks for the compliments!
    Just because:

    Looks great, I got the same setup. How did you run the wiring for the light bar? I've seen people run it down the windshield20171028_140011.jpg but didn't see it in the picture.

    I know it's a late reply, been busy with moving, but I drilled a hole and ran it down the driver side A pillar then gooped the hole with all weather silicone to seal it up.

    Yes it is on the bottom collar, and for the rock lights it's only one in each wheel well. Thanks for the compliment!

    I'm using a caliraised 43" bar. I just used the mounts that came with the light and attached it to the front roof rack bar. I'd attach a pic but I'm not anywhere near my truck haha

    They have a 42” i dont see a 43” led bar. Thanks so no special brackets seem to be needed. Would you recommend a single row or double row lights?

    Over all must've been 43", nope, no special brackets. Sorry for the super late response, didn't see your question till I was updating my build thread. I went with single to help reduce wind drag and I already have a double row in my bumper.
