Roof rack build with high lift mount.
I used some 16 gauge 1 inch square tubing that was about $60 for three 22 foot sticks and cut it up and welded it together, to mount it to the roof I drilled some 1/2 inch holes and bolted the rack down with some sheet metal plates on the inside of the roof as a sort of washer for stability. And the high lift mount was just some bolts welded on with the square tubing there for extra support. Afterwards picked up some rattle can bed liner and layered it on, so far with the giant trees I've pushed through no paint chips yet.

It took an entire day from sun up to sun down. And I'm running 33's so if I stand on one of the rear tires I can reach the tire and get it down pretty easily.
