Does anyone here know anybody locally that builds over-the-camper roof racks? I can find a million and a half lumber racks but I'm thinking something a little more sick.

Anybody with a super sick rack got any suggestions?

Ryan Bradley in Bellingham might be able to hook you up. Otherwise you might have to speak to Leif, which is definitely not worth it.

Couple weeks and I can hook you up Dan. Sold my lumber rack and canopy to fund a welder. Building a custom kayak carrying fortress of stoutness for my tacoma, Neils's and whoever else. Church.

Andy, you are a gentleman and a scholar.

Are you going to just start trying from scratch or are you following plans?

Chris - great to paddle with you again man! I'll get the goods out when its finished.

Joe - I'm gonna call Dave and pick his brain. I'm gonna buy one of those dollys for the Elwha hike!

For my truck I'll be basing my rack from this idea https://www.allprooffroad.com/05tacomatrailarmor/tacomabedracks
Going for simple and light with a lower profile to keep my awesome gas mileage I've had since ditching the old rack and canopy. Will have extendable wide bars for kiwi situations and a canvas tarp to throw on because this is Washington.
Neils wants to keep his canopy so I'm doing a tight fitting over style with wide bars. Still lightweight by using 1inch square tubing 1/8 thick which welded and braced will be plenty stout.

Just bagged a house here in Ellensburg with a small shop in the back so I will finally be able to get working on my truck instead of living in it.
