Bedside Racking - Finally!

[Secousse]

Does anyone have these installed with the wolfhaus power outlet? Any interference??

Picture from the BuiltRight website (https://builtrightind.com/collectio...ystem-drivers-rear-panel-ford-ranger-all-2019)

From that angle, it looks like the rack will get a little in the way.
I'm thinking a Dremel or a hole saw might do the trick

Ok I have my prototypes. Made them out of nylon (similar to cutting board material) and attached with some aluminum L channel. I do use my truck to haul heavy stuff so I left the factory tow hooks exposed. When I finally make them out of aluminum I will add 2 more rows of holes. Just left these to keep it a little more rigid. Any suggestions to the design? I have it saved so I can adjust and cut. Pretty happy with the final results. Gonna grab some velcro strap tomorrow so I can attach shovel and axe and see how it works

I have both the BR racks and Wolfhaus power outlet. I can confirm that yes, the rack does interfere with the outlet. A dremel or holesaw will free up the power outlet for use. I have not done this yet because [insert favorite honey-do list item] but plan to notch the rack this weekend, hopefully.

Cool cool. Let me know how that goes and provide a picture if you can. That is the only thing holding me back from ordering. Unfortunately I have the swing out storage case on the other side so drivers side is my best option.

FYI:
Ethan @ Wolf Haus might release an adapter for the BuiltRight rack ?

We should start a pre-order list…

Hi Folks,

Not for me, but if Ethan does offer this wiring...It will be high quality without a doubt. Every once in a while you run into a fellow that just flat does superb work...

I love it when a plan comes together!
Slowly getting there... I now need to find the right attachments for my tools.

A BuiltRight package showed up on Friday but I've not even opened the package up....

I got these from Amazon to use since they'll work all over

How much cheaper is the nylon over aluminum.

Cutting board plastic is pretty damn sturdy and some people may be interested in that alternative for light weight storage.

It was just some scrap peices that we had around shop. I'm planning on building them out of aluminum eventually.

Any picture of the "finished product" with your tools installed?

I got a builtright on the passenger side only because I have a swing out tool box on drivers side. I like it.

Are these "Quick Fist" clamps?
