I was thinking of adding a canvas top and sides to the rack as well as making the part over the cab a mesh rack. Not sure if I should go that route or make some ladders and other construction equipment for the rack. Let me know what you guys are thinking.....

I vote canvas top and sides with a small rack over the roof. Still put all the construction stuff in it as well. Go all out. Now lets see some pics with the outcroppers on that beast.

great start. I love the idea of a contractors rack as I was also going to do one for my jeep crew cab. If I were you though, I'd add the smaller tube that runs on top of the top tube you have, like this: stick with the contractor theme instead of mixing the off-road type stuff with the contractor rack. IMHO. |

Well I made a canvas top today and to be honest I am just not feeling it... I think I am going to add another rail to the top of the contractor rack and make some ladders and stuff.... I can always use the bikes on my CR-01....I will post some more pics with the canvas on and the out croppers too....

| pics.... here are the pics with the top and the out croppers.... I hate to not use the top seeing as how my Mom sewed it up for me, she is 76 by the way.... But she had a good idea of using a light weight vinyl instead of the canvas... If I do use the canvas I am going to make it black with some sort of dye... Help me out here guys, I am stuck Last edited by 1rcmonster; 09-27-2008 at 05:33 PM. |

All the scale accessories look great on you rig, I would like to do some sort of rack on my hilux as well. I figured I'd post one of the pictures I got of your F-350 on Sat. |

Here's another pic I shot from the same outing. It's got a little better detail of the bed. I like the part with bike hanging out. |

I have designed a visor for my truck, here are a couple of pics of my mock-up. Please tell me what you think.... The front of the Visor will be filled with a piece once it is finalized on styrene.... Last edited by 1rcmonster; 09-27-2008 at 05:33 PM. Reason: added pics.... |

I like it. Might want to think about some lights for it. Can't let Tony have the "Most Lights' award. |
