So i pulled the roof rack... i like it better without the rack than i do with that nasty Z71 rack... i think i want to pick up the completly painted lade roof rack and paint it white... not sure yet... but i am going to send the gray plastic trim peices in to get painted soon i am very happy about that..

P.S. hey renegade, you still want my stock tails?

those tails......

 

[BigE]

looks better without the rack. nice ride!

That looks nice, and those tails look pretty cool actually.

Any idea if that roof rack would fit on an older style tahoe? I might take the z71 rack off your hands if it did....

Im not sure but i doubt it.... but if it does i will sell it to you on the cheap, i dont plan on doing anything with it

 

[tybardy]

yea the tails are all original, I pulled em apart and painted em myself... they will do the job till i can afford to buy the red LEDs i want

Sure do! I didn't want to bug you... since you were a bit standoff-ish when I asked. :shhh::gy:

 

[tybardy]

just wants sure what i was going to do, keep the whites or go back to the stockers... not in love with the whites but i like them better than my old stocks so im gonna keep them on.

 

[Gomez]

stock smoked tails FTW !

 

[Getwired]

Certainly looks better without that ginormous Z71 roof rack! :smilielol: Agree on the LED tail thing -- but it's looking good man!

Do you have any pics of the top of the roof? I was thinking of doing this to my yukon. The body shop I use said it will be about $1200 to shave it, fill, and paint. If it doesn't look to bad up top, then I'll just unbolt it.

yea at the moment i just put the mounting hardware back in... however i am going to go to ace and get some low profile pan head chrome alen screws with some rubber o-rings which should make it look a little better.

i will get some pics of the roof soon

Want to sell the Z71 roof rack? I've been trying to find one for a while that someone wants to offload.

Let me know what you want for it shipped.

Get yourself some set screws, they are usually an allen head and will sit flush with the top when in, should make a very clean setup when done.

I had thought about doing this.... however i was worried that nominal amounts of water would get in and rust from the instide out... so I decided to go with pan heads and rubber o-rings to keep the elements out... what do you think about water with those set crews

 

[Rivieraracing]

Just get some RTV or caulking and seal them that way, if it works for fittings or bolts then it will work for this application as well. Set screws would looks so much more trick than the pan heads, JMO!!!!
