01f1502wd's build thread: project Stormtrooper

nice man now just cut those fence posts off your bumper lol

 

I welded them onto the bottom of the hitch like the raptors do.

its freaking awesome! and I have a place to put extra junk. in the future I think I will make a custom bed cage off the factory bed bolts so its all bolt on and go to the roof and mount the basket on it so it sits a tad closer to the cab. the bottom part is yakima, holds it really securely and the doors close just fine with it since its a non-gutter mounting system

theyre an A/T, do just as good as the bfg A/T...actually I thought they did better and theyve lasted atleast 2-3 times that of my buddys running 35s with em...hes had 3 sets of them (bought them all used on craigslist)...so i think theyre better

 

i hate you and your roof basket right now.

 

That looks so sweeeeet!

 

thanks bud i hate you too

 

i wouldve done my roof basket already, but i wont be able to get under the canopy over my driveway if i do.

 

my truck has been parked outside since the day we bought it..I have only parked in cover parking when I was in Austin one time and parked in a parking garage (wrecked havoc on my CB antennas going in lol) and in the airport parking garage...but with my lift now my windsheild will hit the bar going across

 

Haha, i kinda have to be able to get under there till i clean up along the garage. ANd its great when it snows, since i dont have to wipe the windows off.

 

so....raise the roof a tad...easy enough

 

sounds like a 3 week project that should only take a few hours...
