Got Roof Rack?

[oldmann]

I was thinking anout getting putting a roof rack on my ext cab. I know they don't come with one but thought about modifying a cc one. I may not even mount it so its useable. Just an idea. I would like to see some pics. Thanks in advance.

Does that clip in above the doors (in the jamb)?

you cant see it when the doors are closed. it's basically just a black clip that comes down just to hold it stable.

looks good justin lane. question though, does it mess up the door seal? like i imagine it doesnt leak or anything right?

[Justin Lane]

nah... it snowed/rained all day today and nothing. wind noise isnt noticable either with the fairing

does it need to be on the roof?

It may be cheesy but I just want it for the look. It would only be the rack. No cross bars. Ill likely 3m tape it on.

I'm not much on roof racks (in fact I remove them from my SUVs and Jeeps) but if you have a use for one, I guess it's OK... just not a good looking thing.

[oldmann]

I can't really argue with you. Just thought it would look sporty or adventurous or something. Like I said. It will not functional. Would love to see a white truck with the oem rack.

Are you 15 years old?

 

I mean, it may sound harsh but.... seriously? That's just a really dumb idea, no way to sugar coat it.

 

If you want a roof rack, just buy some Thule or Yakima rails that mount to the roof via special sheet metal compression nuts. That way you don't have to worry about your roof rack flying off while driving down the highway, or worse, you happen to sell the truck with your "3M" roof rack and the next owner actually tries using it.

 

Sad part is, i don't think you're the first genus with such an idea... people in this world really scare me sometimes

That answers my first question

[oldmann]

Lol. . I knew I would take heat for this idea. Obviously I would remove before sale. Just think the oem looks cool.
