    M1009 roof rack

    I like your design ideas. I eventually would like to incorporate more jerry can capacity and a swing-out rack. more or less a special forces type looking vehicle. I found another top from a '91 Blazer with sliding windows and I had the idea of installing a mg ring with a pintle to handle a .50...

    M1009 roof rack

    I don't like your tone, so you can wait...;-) However, for the rest of you that are interested, I will be completing the ladder and the rest of the rack bits when the weather dries up. For now, it's a rack, it does rack stuff as a good rack should. I can climb all over my rig without one. But...

    I'm fabbin a ladder from aluminum that'll fold up when not in use. Right now, I have one of those nifty tire steps that fold up as well. Works great for the rack plus working under the hood.

    M1009 roof rack

    This is the rack you need then. You can have a soft top or no top. You may need to make some modifications to the soft-top attachments but that's about all. That would look sweet set up like that.

    M1009 roof rack

    I started on restoring the rack today, did some sanding and wire-wheeling with the grinder. Tomorrow, I'm going to finish that and do a little welding for the new CB antenna mount and the front basket. I'm extending the rack about 24' over the cab and the installing lights and a remote Golite...

    M1009 roof rack

    Ok, had to take a pic... Picked this rack up today for next to nothing. All steel, expanded metal basket floor, built like a masonary outhouse. It's resting on my 'custom' 2 x 4" spruce mounts for now until I fab up some sill plate mounts for between the top and the box.
