    Billet rack update

    Can someone PM me with extreme close-up pictures of the OEM rack towers and how they mount to the VX? I have a buddy (McGyver) who says he will fabricate the towers and use Westin's Sport Rack cross bars for us.

    He's pretty fackin good at this type of stuff.

    Cross your fingers.

    One step further....I remember someone in the forum had a rack and two sets of towers...does anyone have an extra tower/towers to use as a template to get this job done?

    Someone has to do it before the OEM racks reach $1,000.

    Those Westin crossbars look like a great aftermarket replacement for the OEM roofrack. Good luck with getting the mounts made!

    Just uploaded these. Let me know what else you need. I'll take whatever pix you want before I mount these racks.

    bimati,

    If you need me to drive over to GJ with my racks I'd be more than happy to. I need to get to the "big city" anyway to pick up some stuff.

    Let me know and we can figure out a time.

    Thanks all....I love you guys...

    I'm thinking billet aluminum replicating the tower in it's entirety (with clip and cover, not just the metal base)

    Should I have him "water jet" a VX logo on them?

    Stay tuned and pray that the VX gods are smiling down upon us all.
