[QUOTE="jondle, post: 778286, member: 2598"] It is pretty accurately described on the website. Getting the holes lined up perfectly when installing was a little challenging and I ended up drilling the holes out a little. I bought the 8 gallon Action Packer Tote from Amazon because Outlaw didn't have any in stock and it is a surprisingly tight fit. I don't think it will hold 37" tires, width wise, so that might be something to keep in mind. I don't know that for a fact, just seems like I've seen some used ones with people selling because they got wheels and tires and now they won't fit. Not really Outlaw specific, but from a looks perspective, the truck looks so legit when it is loaded up with two spare tires sticking up. I just re-read that and it seems like a pretty mediocre review, but I actually love the rack. I'm just not sure it is better or worse that others; I haven't really inspected others that closely. I love the Line-X on it, since my bed also has Line-X, but you could have any of them done that way. It is extremely professionally done. Those guys really, really know what they are doing. Just look at Gordon's truck that they got done in time for Mexico. Since you are planning to remove it, I will say when I was shopping around, I talked to Connor about getting one more like the [URL="http://www.saintsoffroad.com/products/delta-chase-rack"]Saint's Offroad[/URL] one; one that attaches to the rear bed mounts as well so I could strap things to it, like a cooler or toolbox. Connor talked me out of it. He said their original rack was designed that way and it got bound up as the bed flexed and it was next to impossible to remove. He suggested the shorter rack and getting the anchor system instead. I was asking him to fabricate it too, not shopping him, so it wasn't like he was trying to keep my business. If anything, he talked me into spending less. The extra support might be beneficial if you don't plan on removing it, but if you want to remove it, something to think about. [/QUOTE]
