Pics of your 1st gen roof rack?
Browsed thru the pic threads, didn't get enough. Need more pics!
Specifically looking to fab a rack thats independant of the hard top, I figure I can do the ladder rack from a tacoma, or bolt it to the side panels, any other ideas?

Thanks, but I'm hoping to fab my own. I'm just looking to see what solutions folks cleverer than I may have come up with.

That's not bad looking, nice work.
It's bolted to the hard top, right? I'm hoping to find examples of racks that stand on their own, so I can run them without my top.

There is a thread on expeditionportal about this. The last I heard, the member was going to go with a ladder rack made for trucks with campershells.
If you find something, please post up. I am looking for a versatile system that I can use on either of my trucks, depending on which one I am using.

Check out this thread and go to page 10
1987 4Runner- Expedition Build Up. - Page 11 - Expedition Portal Forum
It depends on how much weight you want to carry and if you want to drill and seal your top.

Like this. Which may very well be what I end up doing, rather than build me own, that's a really good price.
The only reason not to go this route would be the seal when I run my hardshell, but I think I can address that.
