I should get my Hoe back from the alignment shop tuesday or wednesday and then I'm going to yank off the roof rack.

My question is does anyone know the bolt specs off the top of their head? I know I will need 12 of them (6 per side) and I'm going to get some pan head allen bolt and paint them black to match. That should hold me off until I repaint the truck later this summer is money allows it, then I will weld up the holes and grind them smooth.

Thanks in advance

i wanted to take my rack off to give the hoe a clean look and then the rack got ripped off, my buddy used the hoe for a camping trip and he had some stuff on the roof and it caught a low haning tree and ripped out the front screw zerts ill post a pit but it looks like shit!

I've recently removed my rack and was wondering whats the best way to remove the inserts in the roof. Can I get to them if I remove the headliner. I'll go out this afternoon and check it out.

The holes will be welded up and shaved.

Also has anyone relocated their third brake light to the inside of the panel glass window?

I just put some button head allen bolts in it for now, but I plan on removing the inserts and welding the holes shut when I paint my truck.

I'd also like to know about the 3rd brake light, it looks kinda funny hanging up their by itself LOL
