Did not take you for a gay bar man bro. Why not a roll bar with lights? Better in case of roll over and does not look as gay.

I turned the ladder rack on my topper into a light bar. Roll bars are bad *** though. Especially if they are complimented with whips!

i saw a really nice gutter mounted light bar a few months ago around town. didnt have any brand names on it but it clamped to the gutter and looked like it was built pretty damn tough

yeah id like to get a roll bar but i carry my tools with me in the tool box in the back and i have my tannau cover besides id like to keep by bed nice and rust free i think im just going save up and get a nice whinch bumper/brush guard and mount them behind some expanded metal all of the roof mounted ones just look cheap. the latter rack idea is cool though

I keep my tools in by tool box as well. I have a toolbox out of a stepside. It fit perfect in back and it will still open up in the topper. When I bought my truck it had no center console. So I put my craftsman tool box in the open space. It's pretty sweet since the color matches my truck.
