I'm looking to add a roof rack to the factory one on my 99 tahoe. I want to mount my hi-lift, jerry can, and some lights. I've seen some online, but they're like $600. Any other suggestions? I'd really like to see some pics of racks mounted on old body styles.

Got any close up pics of the rack? Also, what brand, where'd you get it, how much, etc. How does it mount to the factory roof rack?

Proline safari roof rack, I bought it used for $90 off a member on this forum. It was the hardest thing to mount it really was. I'll post pics in daylight for you. The light bar is custom and not attached to the roof rack. It was made by RockRatz. Sweet bar.

Cabelas has some that are a bit cheaper. I don't know the quality of them though. ITs worth a look

Anyone have design plans / drawings and or pics on their trucks? I am going to build one I think because I couldn't find one that I liked for less than $500.

riddle me this, how the hell do you get things in and out of it. I can't even see my roof. I can't even imagine trying to pull a spare tire off there.
