I am building out the tool racks and then I will do a video for the whole setup before I start in on the electrical stuff. I plan on an update by spring.
I ordered some HD drawer slides and will mount those to the top of the rack, then some hinges. After that I am looking into tailgate latches to secure the bottom.
Hello,
I have an ARE CX HD Truck topper, which means it has an internal rack. I want to take advantage of this so designed and built some tool racks for the sides. I could really use some help / ideas on how to mount these to the Aluminum T Slot rack in the canopy? I would like them to latch...
…as others here have said larger tires help clear the rear diff. Higher lift helps to clear larger tires and raise the body to prevent body damage. Tires type will also help a ton, A/T vs M/T.
285/70/17 as Frenchy said will do very well Offroad. The weak spots I have found so far, in the rocks...
It was great, the video is just basic. A few obstacles I came up to were like “how the hell am I gonna make it over that” and then i tried and it just kept going. Really cool, obstacles for all levels and capabilities, take it or leave it, a great trail to drive.
Some basic videos running the whipsaw trail this last weekend. just iPhone video stuff etc.

This is my exact experience with their rock sliders, Missing parts and a bit of modifying. I think they really could do a better job of figment and attention to detail. Product is good in the end just don’t expect a problem free ride. Their customer service is 50/50 as well.
Thanks for the info, truck is looks good! outlandish overlander doesn’t ship to Canada, booooo,. Can you send me some measurements, I may have to look into making some.
