I went Front Runner of K9 for price and the number of options. You would probably have enough room if you remove shark fin. Problem is patching the holes for the fin and keeping everything working. If you are planning a RTT on top, just realize how tall it is with any lift. Can be difficult to reach zippers. I used a Gobi ladder for the back, it's a good fit if you leave enough room between the open tailgate and the back edge of the rack.

Looks great!

How long did it take you, start to finish, to install the full length rack?

(Not including the lightbar.)

Sorry for the delay. About a solid day to build and install. Get a rivnut tool if you can, that was probably half my battle.

My newest toy, got a used AT Chaser without nose box or water. Notice the higher rack on the solo picture for Anex use, also added an on demand 12v water system and electrical system. This thing is awesome!

Lucky! I've been casually keeping my eye out for used trailers like this - never can find one.

Good score - those things are awesome.

Great, thanks. I paid my mechanic and his shop to put it on (due to my own limited mechanical skills) and they charged me 5 hours of labour. So I guess that's about right.

Great thread Gormo! I just replaced my 1999 Gen3 with a 2016 Gen5.

Now I'm brainstorming about roof racks. I found your post via google search. I've seen the T4R.org forum before, but my new Gen5 and your post on your rack install inspired me to finally join.

Thanks
