My brother, a buddy, and I built this back in December. Still have to bolt it down and build some bedrails and such, but I think it turned out pretty good.
I know its not for everyone but down here in Texas they are pretty common, and I needed one on the truck as this is our new ranch truck.
Let me know what you think.
Thanks,
Rankin

Looks nice Rankin, but aren't those bedrails that are attached to it?

Thanks for all the compliments about the headache rack! I think it turned out pretty well.
By bedrails I mean some built off of and angle iron out of square tube kinda like Ranch Hand, but I have some neat ideas for mine.
I wouldn't mind building more headache racks with different options and such, but I'm moving to Fort Worth next week and will be without my Jeeps for a while and won't have the ability or time to do any work at all, dang apartments.
:banghead:
Here is are the only other pictures I have at the moment.
This is when we were trying to get some measurements for shocks
