If the height of the light bar hoop is too high for some people, I'm sure an LED light hoop would be a lot shorter. Correct me if I'm wrong here guys.

We are back on this today. Hoping to nail this prototype down and figure out what/how we are going to offer this beast!

Here's the rack with 15" extensions in the middle. You can also see the option adjustable tire mount:


70" long + sides:

It's essentially $50 more (and 12" longer) then our old utility rack was. Price wise, this things is priced to sell!

I was following this development on your FB page and was ecstatic when it finally went into production! Just the rack and tire carrier for now, but I'm interested in a shorter front and the rotopax carrier in the future.

And yes, that is a JCR pre-runner up front
