    RTT Mounting Over Truck Bed

    Do you think these clamps and some square tubing or load bars from yakima/thule would work? http://www.autoanything.com/truck-racks/65A4841A0A0.aspx or how about This: http://www.autoanything.com/truck-racks/yakima-bedrock-truck-bed-base-rack-system

    RTT Mounting Over Truck Bed

    I'm hoping some of you are smarter than I am when it comes to mounting RTTs. I want to find a way to mount a RTT over my truck bed that makes it flush with the roof line. I have looked at thule/yakima racks and dont see how I could make it work with a truck bed rail. Any ideas, comments...

    Truck or Jeep?

    Haha I would LOVE a SAS. The size hasnt been an issue and I have already modified the suspension to have hopefully fixed the problem. I would get a JK if I were to get one

    Sleeping bags.

    Being 6'4 I understand trying to find a sleeping bag you actually fit in. I just got this one and LOVE it, its 90 inches long so I fit with room to spare and its wide enough that I can almost spread out in it. It also is super warm. I went out and it got to around 35 degrees at night and I was...

    Truck or Jeep?

    It was a catastrophic blow out. The first time happened when I was blasting through mud puddles on the side of the road and the second time happened when I was just driving down the road. Basically when I bought the truck the previous owner had put Bilsteins set at 2.5 inches and then a 1.5 inch...

    Truck or Jeep?

    Yea I saw those but at $425+ i have a feeling I could make something that's half the price. I was thinking of using 1 1/2 inch square tubing and then clamping it with one of these on each end of the bar ( http://www.speedwaymotors.com/Dual-Panhard-Mount-1-1-2-Inch-Square-Tube,7550.html ) and...

    Truck or Jeep?

    Also have another question you guys can hopefully answer, if i do keep the truck, what kind of crossbars do you have to support the tent? I don't want a full on rack, I wanna mount it so its either just under the roof line or flush with it. All the racks I've seen (thule, yakima, rhino) all are...

    What tires do you like? (Merged Thread)

    The old Cooper STT's. I love em, I have had them for about 20k miles without rotating (I know, I know) and they still look brand new and I'm a pretty aggressive driver. Most of my terrain is gravel logging roads, wet stuff and snow and I have never had any issues. They are mud terrains so of...

    Truck or Jeep?

    I'm looking for opinions to help me decide if I want to keep my truck or sell and buy a Jeep. Right now I have an 08 Ram 1500 with 90k miles on the clock that has almost been paid off I have redone the suspension, put 35s on and put skid plates on. The truck is in great shape and I have already...

    Tire type, rim sizes and such...

    The only thing is that the STT Pros are a MT and not an AT

    Tire type, rim sizes and such...

    So strange, it still says request rejected when I click it. But from what I can tell it looks like you're interested in the general grabber AT2? and the Cooper St and the TA KO2. For my money, I'd go with the KO2s. The general grabbers are alright (the first few seasons of Expedition Overland...

    Tire type, rim sizes and such...

    the reason why you need the 18"+ is because you have new spindles. the stock spindles can clear smaller rims but your new ones are beefier and with the brake caliper you need to have a larger rim. Let me know if you have any other suspension questions, I have had to rebuild the front end of my...
