    Thats all its doing currently. I might run my light bar wiring through it. Too bad its the passenger side furthest back bolt.


    But it does look good and it doesnt leak (anymore). So id say it's worth it.

    Does the entire black strip have to bed removed for the prinsu? I read someone say you can just cut out the parts where the rack connects to the roof.

    I'm not a fan of the raw ripped-out-strip look.

    I think you remove it, and then cut out the parts, and then put back in. I did not do that with my install.

    They "messed up" and sent it to me powdercoated black. I plasti-dipped the side rails white.

    I did my cali raised on a 17. Used a step bit. I just went a size. Tried the nutsert. If it didn't fit went another till if fit and we'll it's fine. And it looks like the bar is up to high. I think it need to come down about 1 to 2 inches. Here's mine:

    Use a welder to fill the hole, have painted parts covered with canvas tarp. Grind down weld and re-drill apply touch up paint so you don't rust and call it a day. If you can't weld find a friend that does.

    I removed mine cause I have a canopy- and when I left them on- the cabin side rack set higher than the canopy - I needed the whole thing to be level and I only got that when I took the weather strips out. I mean I could cut out pierces and glue them in or something- but there's no point
