What do I do next with this truck?

I am new to Expo and just need some ideas of what to do to my truck next. It is a Dodge Cummins 4x4. I have a fully built trans and a Smarty programmer with the TNT program. Full King 2.5 shocks with the extended race reservoirs, Thuren Coils and leaf springs all sitting on 37x12.50x17 Goodyear Wrangler MTR's with Kevlar. I would like a roof rack, but does anyone know of any that are easily removable?

Northstar TC 650 popup(used in Craigslist) and some Carli LT Airbags. You can pull it in 10 minutes and reinstall it for a camping trip in 20 min. Some Carli or Thuren control arms would be great also. Not a roof rack,but that queen bed feels nice at night.

I have some control arms planned withing the next month. I have a spare tire mount in the bed so I am not sure the pop up tent will work. I want to start taking some expo trips, but I also hit the dunes and the desert a lot for some high speed fun. I am trying to accommodate both ends of the spectrum.

You could buy or build a low profile rack for the bed, something that would sit a little below the top of the cab. Then mount a roof top tent onto that.
It wouldn't interfere with your bed and cargo storage at all.

I am going to Pismo the end of this month to see how the truck handles at high speeds. Play with the shocks a bit and try to get everything dialed in. I am going to look around for a bed rack. I want a low profile one. Like about 4 inches above the bed rail. I guess I will have things figured out when there is a trip planned.

Yup... here you go. You can follow the link to my build thread on TTORA as well.
