^^^Good I'm not crazy lol.

Got any pics?

I loved the rack I had on my 11. Gordon built it with electrical tubing lol. But since everything sat on the bed it didn't need to be that strong. Only problem was it was set up for running a tiregate. When I added the dovetail I needed to keep the 2nd in the bed...plus I kind of wanted my tailgate back. tbone now has it.

Can't be in the bed. See pic below of my platinum (raptor hasent come in to the dealer yet) but same size bed. When I put the quad in there I have no room for the other camping supplies, and wind up strapping them on the quad and all over. What a mess. The new rack will hold it all and I'm thinking a trick setup with a bar that connects to the quads racks to hold the quad in. No tie downs!

Very nice and very efficient. No wasted space.

Got my 1-3/4 .095 tubing arriving at my shop tomorrow. Just waiting for the die for my bender to arrive to bend it up. Ill use my platinum for sizing it up, this way I have it built, powder coated, and ready to install when my Raptor comes in in August.

Deciding if I want to mount it to the bed rails, or drop the tubes down into the bed itself.
What im doing it a bit unique, since I really don't want a traditional chase rack. I want the entire bed free for cargo. A light bar on an actuator, a few rear lights, and the hidden recievers to hold my generator and such. Also a slick system to hold the quad in the bed with no tie downs....
