Anybody built or bought a basket style roof rack for their pickup? I'm thinking of doing some kind of combination headache rack/roof rack. The headache rack will protect the rear window from firewood and the basket would hold the saws, bar oil, gas, etc... Just an idea for now-I found one or two pictures on here, but mostly just 4Runner racks.

There is a member on here that built one. It was in the for sale section a while back. If i remember it was a grey single cab. Hope that helps. Unless you build it fron a headache rack or off a custom flat bed it may be hard to mount. Our trucks dont have gutters like previous years so mounting it would be difficult. Unless you drill holes....

Try build a Baja Rack. Make it mount to a rollbar or a headache rack. Could do a mock rollbar sides, like on the Avalance. Or check out the one Ian from Extreme 4x4 build for Seach and Restore project, GMC Sierra. It looks sweet.

Thats the one i was talking about.

Thanks for the links-I'm definitely doing a headache rack/rear window protector because it's a miracle I haven't thrown a piece of firewood through it yet as it is The basic idea will be to make the headache rack come up above the roofline of the cab so I can cantilever the roofrack/basket off of it and over the cab. I think I'll do some drawings in Sketchup and post them.
