I have been running my roof rack now in one form or another for over a year and I think I am finally ready to get it powder coated.
I don't want to regret adding something to it down the road so I thought I would post up and ask for suggestions as to what to add, or prepare for in the future.
Here's what it looked like when I first had it made. It's attached to the Tomb Raider edition light bar.
What it morphed into:
I foresee a M416 or M101CDN in my future.
I just need to find one AND have the money at the same time!
I eventually cut off the top rails since I want to fit it in my garage after future upgrades. With the top rails it was barely fitting through the garage door, and since I wasn't really using them any way, off they went.
As it sits now:
As of late I have been ratchet strapping things directly to the expanded metal, I think that long term I will use something like anchortrax. I also plan to add a few of the blitzpro lights mentioned in another thread (one each side, one in back.)
My thoughts are to drill some holes through the rail that runs front to back, perpendicular to the ground as well as parallel to the ground for future things bolted to it (like a shovel or high lift jack handle.) For extra fuel, I will most likely use a 4 gallon RotoPax laid flat in the front most section.
What am I not thinking of?
