Prinsu VS UpTop Overland

What cargo boxes are you guys throwing on top of these?

 

Wow, this looks exactly what I want! I am taking full advantage of the 10pct discount currently at Uptop due to Memorial day weekend. I also was thinking about this problem, and thanks to you, I have a solution. where did you get these L-Brackets from? I am going to do this build as well!

Thanks!

 

Got all the extra parts from UpTop, took about an extra month.

 

Two solid products. good luck with your decision. Love my UpTop.

 

One of the reasons I decided on The UpTop personally is it's all aluminum. My coworker has one of the Victory bed racks and rust is a constant battle.

 

I went with UpTop as well and like you, I can’t be happier.

Although I have steel bed bars and the moment I put them on they started to rust. I put some Turtle wax Hybrid Solutions ceramic spray on them and I’m not seeing nearly the rust as I was. Just a thought that might help your coworker.

 

I'll pass that along thanks for the tip.

 

Mind explaining why it's not an issue? Elsewhere on TW forums I've heard of Prinsu racks bending due to a hammock. What specifically makes Uptop different in this regard?

 

what headlights are you running and would you recommend them? I do lots of night time strolls in the bush for reference.

 

@upTOPoverland, I ordered a Bravo Ex Tacoma Rack and had a question about solar panel sizing.

This rack is 70.5"x50". Is there a certain size of panel that'll fit particularly well? Basically, I'm choosing between getting a long/thin panel to run parallel to the truck on one side of the rack (my first two solar panel options are 42"x20" or 65"x26") or a panel that's a bit longer than 50" to install perpendicular to the truck on the front or back of the rack (my third option is 52"x26").

I know the inside crossbars shift a couple inches in either direction, so maybe your answer is that any of these sizes would fit equally well. Any thoughts would be great thanks!
