Here's the email I received on 9/16/2014 regarding my order
-------------------------------
Just wanted to update you on your build. We’ve had a bit of an issue with our powder coater. This has caused all of our orders to be pushed back at least 2 weeks.
Alex is working tirelessly on getting your rack out to you sooner rather than later. Of the quoted lead time, powder coating takes up 1/3 of that. So even the slightest issue is a major set back. I apologize for the delay and thank you so very much for your patience.
Please do not hesitate at all to contact me with your concerns.
Thanks,
Manelle
-------------------------------
I was quoted 4 week lead time when I placed my order on 8/26, so it sounds like we're looking at 6 weeks now.
First world problems are really tough to handle

Just wondering if you have received your rack yet and how you like it? Ordered mine on the same day, but still waiting.

Sure sounds like drabbits is busy, which is a good thing. I'd love to know if there are any updates on a utility rack though.

Mine arrived at the shop today and getting it tomorrow night. I can't wait. I ordered some of this today for the install. I probably won't get time until next weekend to install.

Hey guys,
A lot has happened since I last posted.
For one, we moved into a larger shop in July, aside from the obvious benefits, you local guys can now install your equipment indoors.
Also we have ended ties with one powder coater and begun a relationship with another. The quality and attention to detail with this new company is outstanding.
As some of you know we are currently behind on production due to an increase in sales. July and August sales were mind blowing!
We are doing are best to continuously adapt to the steady and sometimes explosive growth this company is going through.
In order for us to meet sales demands and produce our items within a respectable time frame prices must go up.
As of November 5th, 2014 prices on all items will increase.
The Toyota 4Runner 5th Gen. full sized “Shark” roof rack will be $879
2 adjustable crossbars will now be included
Extended rear mesh will also be a standard.
The 3/4 “Shark” roof rack will be $809
Also comes with 2 adjustable crossbars and extend mesh.
The “Shark” utility rack is in the works, it will be priced at $829
Although it doesn’t have crossbars, nor a top rail, it is a heavier roof rack designed to carry 4'x8’ sheets of ply and much more.
Thank you all for your continued support and patients!

Yep, he sent me tracking and all. It was even on the move over the weekend and updated. It was delivered last Monday. Just put it on this past weekend. I love it. Not I got to resist buying a big light bar.

Haven't been on here in a while, but mines about a year old and still loving it! Plus Drabbits was awesome to work with, had a small snafu with the install and he sent out the replacement parts the same day! I just noticed the truck is on the front page too, thats a plus, lol
Have you considered Rhino or Linex instead of powder coat.Just a little something to look at.....
