New Rack/Mind Your Manors

[cabron]

I havent posted in awhile, been so busy with work (painting business) that I've been a meer lurker lately. Well thanks to Derrick from Bluegrass Cruisers in Georgetown, KY i now have a new rack. It's a Kargo Master aluminum, powder coated set up attached to Thule bars and locked gutter mounts. It seems to be very stout. yet lightweight for easy installation and take off. I really like the look of it, it seems to fit the cruiser styling lines well.

And yes this is where I live. I am actually the live-in caretaker for the manor which was for sale. I have been living here for over a year by myself and will still get a few more months til the new owners finish renovations. I have alot of respect for the place, it was built in 1905. It sits on a cliff that overlooks the Ohio River.

Do you know is the retailer for Kargo Master racks? I have been looking for
one that size and Con-Ferr is out of business. I like the sounds of aluminum
for weight reasons also. thanks

You can just google Kargo Master Racks and come up with alot of different retailers, some of which might be close to your location. I believe I have the Safari rack, all aluminum. They do sell it in steel which I have seen is alot less expensive.

The previous owner had a repaint that is show quality done about four years ago to my knowledge. It was a one-owner 128K truck when I bought it in January. I have been really happy with it thus far, I just keep throwing OEM maintenance and tuneup items, replacing some Non-OEM items. Props to CruiserDan for the excellent service and pricing. I still miss the 40, but using it to run my business, driving up to 75 miles per day, my back and teeth are alot happier.

Looks good, I plan on running the new ORU Defender rack on mine soon (the company that bought out ConFerr & slightly redesigned the rack with a rake in the front, integrated flooring & light mounts, like the new design better) http://www.offroadunlimited.com/ProductCart/PC/viewPrd.asp?idcategory=307&idproduct=1176

That looks pretty cool. Hmmm... maybe I'll get that instead of the Safari.
