    Not a Stocko Taco.
    Is your rack staying that high? Its sweet because your back window will not be blocked but you might not like the added weight up there.

    ...too much shit to list.
    Compress the springs a little with external compresors. Pull the allen screw all the way out. Stick a flat screwdriver in between the seam on the collar and pry it open as much as you can. Should be able to get it reseated on the threads.

    Got the collar fixed today. Went to my friends shop used his wall mount spring compressor. Spread the collar and it popped right back into place. Turned it 3 turns and I'm GTG!

    Forgot to tell you thanks for the pics on your bed rack. Have you slept in your bed when camping with that soft top? Wondering if its worth it to go that route or just get a tent for camping lol.

    NP, yes I've slept in the back with the soft top, MJ does this also. It's fine, just got to bundle up if it's cold. But much easier then setting up a tent. The only downside is you have to move the stuff out the bed.

    Hmmm. See you have the swing out tire carrier though. When I go wheeling I always throw my spare in my bed and strap it down. I need to change out to a HC rear with a swing out I think. Do you think if I did something like your setup but mounted fuel cans, a hi lift and shovel to the outside of the bed rack that it would be a bad idea?

    and I'm short. lol

    that would be fine, I believe a few members on here already have done so.

    The RTT looks like it won't be here until right after the slick rock trip! dam was hoping to test it. But with the great pricing from bobby, I can wait.

    soon...

    Fairly easy, but I used real bolts in some of the holes. But these aren't whackers. These are from RHDesigncorp. They're on sale right now for $289 Shipped I believe.

    haha
