Here's a couple of pics of my truck.

The safari roof rack was made with the help of my brother-in-law and was built 1" square tubing. It's 60" in length, 42" wide. I think it's the perfect size for this truck. The next step is going to be 4 lights up front, two out back for reversing.

The second pics are my ISR mod. I must say that I don't think it helped with the gas mileage at all, but midrange torque is better. I figure any gains in fuel economy was lost when I put the roof rack on.

ISR mod looks nice! What did you use to make that?

 

Dang, that's one big rack! I like the mods.

 

I need to get that ISR MOD done on mine.

 

I used exhaust pipe at a muffler shop. They charged me $5 for the bending and the pipe itself.

I just found out that it's really hard the get to the dipstick to check the oil now. Oh well...

How much wind noise do you get with that rack?

 

Whats the ISR MOD and how do I do it?

 

INTAKE SILENCER REMOVER MOD

You remove the intake silencer elbow and modify a straight pipe in its place for better airflow from the TB to the airbox.

In my opinion, there is no need to even consider this mod at the least, with that SUPERCHARGER in that V8!

 

Those both look awesome!! The rack will look great once some lights that you were talking about are installed. I love it!

 

The wind noise that the rack makes does not overcome the howling noise coming from the BFG Mud Terrians at highway speed. If I open the sunroof I can hear the rack, but it doesn't make wierd whistling noises, so it's not really an issue for me. I guess we'll see what happens when the lights go up.

Do you have some plan of this rack or an estimation of material cost ??

I want to made one too and need an idea of how much it will cost.

how it's hang on the top of you're truck??

thanks
