Here's a pic of an end cap from my rack. Diameter was the same as the tube. Weld all around an grind smooth.

 

Thats what we are planning on doin also. it looks kind of like a tiny truck lug nut from a semi.

 

I do believe them to be about 42", once you get your first LEDs you won't want to stop!

 

Oh I believe it. I've been following some of the pictures on the FB page.haha it's just a matter of funding right now. I'm bout to move half way across the US and need to make sure I have enough to do so along with have some cushion money till I get another job. But once funds come in and im settled I'm sure it won't be long till im contacting you about some LEDs.

 

What state you moving to?

 

I'm in California now. I'll be moving back to Texas. But instead of going back to San Antonio I'll be going to Houston.

After I set the Jeep up a little better I plan on traveling around the US in my Jeep and camp along the way. Go wheeling and fishing all over. Im making the Jeep an exploration rig pretty much. When im not out exploring or camping ill just rock crawl with it.

 

Update on the rack:
Gas slots are on.
Light brackets are on.
Top bar being adjusted to the right height.
End caps are some rounded bolts welded in and grinded down.
Now its ready to paint.

More updates tomorrow hopefully. Might be on the jeep

 

Looking great! One thing to think about that I didn't add was a tie down point for the cans. I wrap the strap around the tube and I never put the strap in the same place every time so it marks up the paint. A simple tab bracket with an eyelet should do the trick. Just an idea.

 

I thought about that also. The strap hooks arnt big enough to go around the tube so I will have to wrap it around and hook back to the strap. Either that or open up the hook a little. I may try opening up the hook and see how the plastic does on the paint.

I sprayed a layer of primer down last night. Today im spraying the undercoating in a can on it. I used it on my wheel wells and it seems to be workn really well.

 

Just a quick photo of it sprayed. Putting it on tomorrow hopefully. Didnt get to it today.

 

Rack is on. The paint I sprayed is still a little tacky so I couldnt put the lights on. But this is what the finished rack itself looks like.

 

Nice work! The jeep looks Killer!

 

Thank you. Im really liking how its turned out. Couldnt have done it without you tho. This is your design. Thank you for all the tips and guidance.

 

looks badass

 

Thanks man. It's stitch's design. I just had my neighbor try and replicate it. Love this thing!

How you feeln after your accident? Your back and neck any better?
