Camo- what brand bumper is that? I've seen the aluminum bumpers before, a neighbor has one on his Ex, but it's a huge bull bar that I don't care for.

Sorry for the delay. I have been going crazy lately with everything. The bumper is made by Bocar out of Australia. It comes with or without the uprights and you can have polished or powder coat it. The bumper is aluminum as well, so it is pretty light, but is decently thick 6061-T6 Al. Here is a pic of the black one.

Here is the rack. I actually have the Go light attached to the roof of the truck, but it could be mounted to a square plate on top of the rack. I got the permanent mount light.

The rack itself has light plates for the brake/turn which are Trucklite LEDs, filament backup lights (LED backups are too expensive right now), bed rail protectors which protect the plastic bed rail caps from damage and an internal frame that sits in the bed of the truck so there are no mounting holes (mounts using turnbuckles). The bed insert has a rotating piece (parallel to the passenger bedrail) which lines up with the tool box lid so I can still haul 8+ ft long plywood or other things since the toolbox takes up space. Oh, and the rack/insert floats so if something hits the rails hard enough, the factory rails are undamaged.

Camodown, thanks again for the pics! Reps sent! I like the "madmax" look but its pretty rare to see a truck like that..

I am undecided on whether i should do a headache rack or a back rack.. But either way when money persists, im gonna get a go light. How do you like your go light and what kinda headache rack did you get?

I like my ranch hands. The rear one i got from my friend after his truck got hit by a grey hound bus (grey hound had to buy him a new one)

the scuff on the left side is al that happen to it.




The i got the front one from him when a Class A motorhome ran a light and he t-boned it.
