New Roof Rack

I just bought a roof rack from a fellow Isuzu off-roader. I couldn't pass up such a great deal! I'm going to see if the guys at work can sand blast it and repaint it. Hopefully it will be done by Friday. Anyone up for helping me mount it this weekend? We only have to drill 8 holes into the existing rack.

Looks like your muffler bearings need to be calibrated as well

I didn't want to ask...since you mention it though, lets split a case. I think the 80 is running low.

Here is a place that sells it.

Maintenance : KaleCoAuto, Hard to find automotive items!



They also sell seasonal tire air, muffler bearings, replacement "710" caps, and flux capacitor conversions. LMAO!

My favorite is the Passenger Noice Reducer

Last night was a very special night. Yes, that's right. I mounted Jen's rack. It was very nice and a little scary at first but then Kelly joined us and things went smoooothly.
