Nice186 Posted June 2, 2011 Share Posted June 2, 2011 It very well is a good thing I wanna do this too on my truck but did you have to cut a hole on ur roof for the offroad lights? It looks like it goes in the roof in the photos? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cachefinder Posted June 2, 2011 Share Posted June 2, 2011 I hope thats a good thing?? haha I'm pretty sure it is... Thanks for the additional pics, that really helps get a better idea of how you put it all together. I couldn't see if it had a bottom at all but that is slick...and I especially like the adapter brackets...I know you bought them but I think after seeing them they could be fabbed too.

It looks like it goes in the roof in the photos? Ya I did, it was either that or I run it along the door into the engine bay. I didn't like that idea, I thinks it looks cleaner this way (from the inside atleast). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nunya Posted June 2, 2011 Share Posted June 2, 2011 I got a SportRack brand basket on my wives 4runner (mounted to the stock roof rack). Was priced right, I think it was free shipping when I got it too. I'll look up the site I got it from when I'm at home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RustyButTrusty Posted June 2, 2011 Share Posted June 2, 2011 Here are some pics of mine, I have a custom made rack that mounts to my factory roof rack. I think that this is the route you should go, it is the easiest and cheapest in the long run. Man that's crazy! My rack looks exactly like that. Same four lights on the front and everything. Mines got two small halogens on the back as well. Besides the color and having four doors, your pathy must be a twin to mine haha. Mine even has the same brush guard.

RustyButTrusty Posted June 5, 2011 Share Posted June 5, 2011 Does the spoiler hit your rack when you lift up the back gate? I have a spoiler ready to go on mine, but I wasn't sure if it'd work with the rack being on there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
