Pre-paint on my XJ ... there's one around town on a really good looking XJ, I need to track him down and get some good pics of it with all lights installed.

Bigmac88, I can do almost any color you'd like in paint, bedliner color choices are bit more limited. Same price for paint or bedliner.

I'm going flat rate on the freight, $195 anywhere in the lower 48 states. $765 shipped sound good?

I'm using Rustoleum bedliner Dave, and I really like it. Looks good, and very tough.

Alright sweet, Im re-paiting the lower parts of my doors with bedliner instead of regular paint, wanting to have a nice texture and not break the bank...looks like ill be going with rustoleium liner. I have a bud that has a KJ, would you be interested in possibly making a rack to fit it? He is wanting something basic but functional. I figured his libby would be a good prototype for possibly a future rack you could add to your inventory. Let me know!

That is an awesome rack and I'm actually not too far from you here in Western NC, but how much does that sucker weigh?

You're close enough to come pick one up!

I guess it weighs 30-35lbs. I'm building one now, I'll hang it on the scale when it's done, as I get that question periodically. It is lightweight though.

Great looking roofrack, thats the best ive seen yet but someone asked earlier and i didnt see a response, but would you do a DIY kit and send the material to where we would weldit ourselves. It would also be a bit cheaper for shiping

DIY kits are an option, but I need to look at it closer to determine a price for a kit version of this rack.

In all honesty, you might end up kicking yourself even though you saved a few bucks. I scrapped several early versions because getting the assembly and weld techniques down was tough. I'd be happy to build a kit for you, but be warned, it's all uphill from there!

Send me a PM and we can talk more about it if you are interested.
