  1. Anyone with any experience with installing rails on top of the cab?

    UPDATE: Finally got to get out of the house a little. Really happy with this Rhino rack design.
  2. Canoe Carrying Solutions

    This is my Rhino rack install. I've been hauling canoes and kayaks for over 40 years and this may be the most solid set up I've used.
  3. 5G Ranger Happy Hour!

    I like that you keep your calculator close to your drink! I'm a structural engineer and can relate. LOL
  4. Virginia 18" Lariat wheels/tires/suspension

    I could do the $550 but not sure when I can get over there to pick them up. It's about a 5 hour drive for me, but I can plan on coming Sunday. If that doesn't work then I could pay and then figure out when to pick up?
  5. Another pivot tool box question

    The install itself was easy. Do some measuring. Easy to find the harness under the bed. You need the right size hole saw for metal for the plug itself. Then you drill the four holes for the screws. The wiring harness just plugs in. Very simple... Until you are sitting there working up the...
  6. Another pivot tool box question

    A couple photos of mine if it helps. I installed my swing case before I installed the outlet so it worked
  7. COVID-19 Thread

    My wife and I went to Walmart on Saturday. We were just buying the usual groceries - not too much extra. Curious, I went around the store to see what they were out of. I noticed the following items were hit pretty hard (some may be easily explainable - some maybe not): Toilet Paper Napkins...
  8. Anyone with any experience with installing rails on top of the cab?

    UPDATE - I have been over 75 mph (no - I wasn't going after toilet paper) and I had some wind noise but it was very minor. It wasn't an objectionable howl at all. My wife didnt even notice it until I pointed it out.
  9. Anyone with any experience with installing rails on top of the cab?

    I haven't fully tested the wind noise yet, but the textured rubber insert on top is supposedly designed to help. There are also strips provided to close gaps on the bottom, too. When I first installed the racks, I didn't have time to get those rubber strips put in. With that big groove in the...

  11. Anyone with any experience with installing rails on top of the cab?

    Grabbed a few pictures before my wife left for work. Not the best because the sun wasn't up yet.
  12. Anyone with any experience with installing rails on top of the cab?

    I can get some more pictures as soon as I can pry my wife's hands off the steering wheel. Haha!
  13. Anyone with any experience with installing rails on top of the cab?

    Finally got a chance to get these racks on. These Rhino racks are very well designed. I used plusnut fasteners rather than the supplied poprivets. I really don't think the poprivets could tighten it down well enough since you are compressing some grey foam strips. I had them substitute 59" bars...
  14. DIY: Adding the 12V Power Outlet Option in the Bed

    Thanks. I was just lucky that it happened in that order.
  15. DIY: Adding the 12V Power Outlet Option in the Bed

    Just fit below the swing case bracket:
  16. DIY: Adding the 12V Power Outlet Option in the Bed

    Mine are the "Swing Case" brand but I suspect the Ford version may be made by Swing Case since they look so similar. After I installed the swing cases, I saw that I would have enough room below the bracket to install the 12v. So it is not exactly where most folks have theirs. The next chance...
  17. Anyone with any experience with installing rails on top of the cab?

    They don't show them on their website so I believe I first emailed the Rhinorack link to Rack Attack and inquired. I've dealt with Rack Attack many times and they are my 'go to'. Excellent service, support, AND prices. They got back to me and hooked me up. With their free shipping, I paid...
  18. Anyone with any experience with installing rails on top of the cab?

    The Rhinorack website has an installation video. Note that the the'groove' in the roof that has the plastic strip in it has a slight curve to it. The tracks that I received are curved to match that. So I am pretty stoked about the thought that went into this design.
  19. Anyone with any experience with installing rails on top of the cab?

    So far, no experience. But I am excited to have the Rhinorack ready to go on my Super Crew. http://www.rhinorack.com/en-us/products/roof/roof-racks/vortex/vortex-rlt600-trackmount-black-2-bar-roof-rack_ja6180 It looks like an excellent, very clean design. I have used the Yakima Tracks on my...
  20. Where’s your dog?

    So far Katie likes the Ranger overall. She's not thrilled with the deep sounding exhaust at times though.
