I have the exact same cab configuration as you and I was wondering if you had some closer/larger shots of it installed and how its mounted? How much total was all of that conduit? I have contractor pricing on homebuilding materials but I've never purchased it before. Would you be interesting in building one and sending it to me in parts?

1/2 " EMT is pretty cheap. Even if I cut it up a little, it would be a long box I wonder If I just built the "intersections" then a person could cut straight pieces to match their bed size? I guess the only angle that would change would be the down bar to top of tailgate, and I could make that adjustable.

I should have done some research, this stuff is cheap, haha so even if I mess up it wouldn't be an expensive mistake. Thanks for the heads up, for some reason I had figured it would be much more expensive. Do you happen to have any larger close up pics? Mostly of the crossmember and where/how they tie in? This is of course unless you want to remain unique with your design! Haha thanks a lot for the information again.

Hello, is this still on the truck, and if so how has it held up with this configuration in the past two years?
