Really awesome setup!! I love the large size and pick & pack foam so it can evolve or expand with your changing needs. The workbench was such a nice added touch. Can’t wait to try this on my own truck! Thanks!
Great video. I had this case on my FJ, and I was going to sell it because I don’t want it on the roof of my Titan I got. But, I picked up a rack similar to yours and it gave me inspiration to do the same thing as you. Thanks man!
I would of drilled the chain hooks into the back, same place you bolted the box to the truck rack. Then you could put as much weight on it as you need.
1:00 It takes skill to pause between words as you finilaize your thoughts and allow perfect timing for the rooster to crow within said pause. mad skill. you are one with the farm animals. western zen.
Just got a Gen4 Taco, installing a Tonneau Cover/Bed Rack combo. Similar overland rack as yours. And trying to find "saddle" style storage is impossible. This DIY is exactly what I want. So TYSM for the idea!! Great work.
super nice, thanks for posting, great info How tall is your rack? 16 inches? Are you happy with that height? I am considering the same XO rack system but thinking slightly taller than cab height for a kayak, plywood, etc. I would appreciate your thoughts on that. Thanks
Yes a 16, although I’m not sure that height is made any more. Yeah, I got my height for the same, but decided I would use some sort of riser to clear the roof. The last time I loaded a ladder, I used 2x4’s to clear the cab. That seamed to work. I think a kayak in the standard 45degree carrying angle, would probably clear it as well without much issue.

Hey man, nice video! Great idea, and gotta love Harbor Freight! Also love the FUNKY music! Check out my Maverick videos if you get a chance. Always good to see other folks enjoying their trucks!
Haha! I probably spend WAY too much time looking for the right sound lol. It’s just another way of expressing how I feel when I’m making the vids. I subbed to you! I actually watched another one of your vids last week! I’m all over the place in content but I’m just doing me at this point and enjoying whoever wants to come along for the ride. Thanks for your comment!
@@DaleDoesItAll way too many critics out there! It takes guys to put yourself out there. It's easy to be critical but if folks don't like what we do they should just move on. Keep up the good work!
That would be sweeeeeeeeettttt lol. I’m not gonna lie, originally I was going to do a wood top but I didn’t want to put too much weight on the hinges lol. Thanks for watching!!!!
Store bottles and glasses in another set of foam and just build a polished wood insert to sit over the egg crate. Little glampy lol but still frickin cool
