Esky roof rack

[Grimes]

I haven't heard much about the esky racks around here for a little while, and was wondering if anyone was looking to sell what they have. I'm more than happy to trade my oxidized stock roof-rack, if interested! Let me know.

Thanks guys.

Huh. Gave it a shot, took a few tries, but am getting an e-mail with pictures tomorrow morning from a vendor for one with crossbars for $175 shipped. Vendors seemed a bit iffy when I started asking for pictures, but this one was cool with it. If that site had pictures, even as an option, it'd be perfect. I feel I may be getting parts from it in the future. Maybe even an engine.

$100 is a steal. $175 ain't bad either!

Got the pics in this morning while at work and went ahead and paid at lunch. Looks like it needs a wash, polish, n wax, but so does the rest of my truck. I think I'll be happy, especially for $175.

Spent the day really cleaning the roof and the new rack, then got it installed in 10 minutes. Surprisingly simple. Looks great in my opinion. I found only 1 flaw in it. The front left end cap has some severe chipping going on, with 3 1x1" chunks missing on the edges. Its still black, only noticeable because its not gloss. May throw some rustoleum on it and see what happens, isn't crazy visible. None the less, for $175, I'm happy.

I have the 2 crossbars as well, but honestly I have no clue how these are installed. Anyone able to explain this?

Ahhhh... I'll have to look at it again, but that makes sense. Thanks!
