So I built this new rack from scratch. This picture was taken before I painted or mounted the thing. The dimensions are 6FT long, 4FT wide, 1in pipe, 5 1/2 inch spacers. What do you all think?

 

Pretty nice! Is it bolted or welded together?

 

All welded, This baby is STRONG! 5 grown men stood up on it, and nothing bent or broke.

 

nice looks great how did you mount it on your roof?

 

looks good. is it as stoute as it looks? looks like its built pretty damn nice.

 

1) I mounted it with some clamps to the rain gutter on the jeep, There bolted to the rack so I can easily remove the rack for maintenance.

2) The rack is made out of 1in diameter pipe and all the joints are triple bead welded. It would take a lot to break the rack.

 

what would you charge to make another if you had time or the want to do so?

 

erm, Trade me something I could use on my stock Jeep, I'm in need of 2 shocks, leaf's, coils and/or spacers. Maybe some 30/31 inch tires. I used 2; 20 foot 1 inch pipes, 3 cans of spray paint, and about 5 hours worth of work welding, grinding, and painting. P.S I will buy the steel and what ever paint color you want.

 

do you have a pic of the racks bottom? i would be interested in taking you up on that.

i have some measurements i can give you as my cab is a good bit shorter than yours is. i can make one of these racks my self as i am a fabrication engineer, but you have done a damn good job on it and it would save me time amongst all the other projects i have going on . my rig rossies rig etc.....

 

I will make what ever you want, Just give me the length, width, and how tall you want it to stand. I just used 3; 4 foot long pipes for the bottom and I plan to lay BBQ grill over it. If I were too make another rack, I would just use more pipe and space em out evenly or take a sheet of sheet metal and weld it on. But the pipe would be MUCH stronger.

 

Oh and a reason why I designed my rack the way I did is because I intend on drilling some holes to run wiring for lights, air compressor, and any other junk I need. The wiring being in the pipe will keep things neat and clean looking.

 

i didnt see an over all cost, what would i be lookin at? and it looks good by the way!

 

i'll trade ya some 3 inch coils and 2 inch spacers . for your rig. you make me a rack. hows that sound.

 

Nice!

 

Sounds good Oxen__ send me a PM with your number and I will text you to get dimensions. The over all cost was about 75$ in steel and paint.
