I know a guy in Vernon who could do it. Weather he wants to or not is another thing. Doin that is rather time consuming - therefore expensive.
Sucks to your assmar.

I want them to look nice so I'm not doing it  :) I will probably have a number of them made to help offset the cost, and make it worth someone's time. Local would be preferable.

What kind of rack? Bug or bus? wood slat? I have a friend who is a wiz with his tube bender, from railings to roll bars to tube chassis and excellent metal fab. He is interested and is in Cloverdale. If you still need someone, let me know and I will pass along his number.

The rack that's on the single cab in our sig line. It's a Martin Walter's Dormobile rack. We may sell the Dorm this next year but  I like the look of the rack on the SC. Interestedin your friend's number/info.

Airjack I was thinking it would be a good idea to make up a few longer ones for a DC. We'll see how things go.
