Well it's moved on a bit  :dance:

I have been doing a bit in the evenings and weekends , to be honest I have found that using the frame I made in the garage and doing everything by eye has worked pretty well. I have used two roof bars I had for carting ladders about to set the heights of the cross supports and I am now happy with the height as it was a bit high at the start..

These piccies are of the first full try on, the light bar is just resting in place as I will need to un-wire it to get it off :roll:

so What do you think :D




Now I need to add some more uprights on the top cage and some cross bars for the deck to sit on :dance: before paint :D

nice start lee un sure on the bare metal finish  :-k thinking the black will more in keeping with ur truck

stuntman:
Looking really good mate, the front leg of the rack looks a little bare somehow, I really like the lines of it aswell.

How about some bracing for the light bar, then mount 4 wipacs to the front of the roof rack and 4 small rectangular lights hanging off the light bar?

You'll be taking orders soon bud

paulnb57:
Awesome!

lee celtic:
The fronts not finished yet I am thinking of somthing a bit like this on the front but a little further back  ;)

To stop the lights hitting the bonet..

also loops on the top corners for bush cables (must remember to wear safety glasses ;)) and thinking of a swivel/ search type light right on the drivers side corner.



sorry I don't know whos pic it is I have collected so many doing research while designing my rack from ebay and other sites but thanks anyway ;)

this was the very first fit and was just to make sure the frame fitted in the gutters , there is still a way to go but not as far as when I started :dance:
