you need to hurry up and get patents on your designs and start selling them on the side...before someone steals your ideas and starts making them!

yup. speachless. great work. does that rear one slide up and down or remount however you want it. youve made a rod rack that works with tonneau covers and i love it.

the site is quite nice too, im moseying my way around there now.

constructive criticisim if i may:

the intro slideshow is kinda quick, i would probably slow it down to a 3-4 second delay between pictures.

in the about the builder site, the white text isnt really readable over the picture, and the grey text at the bottom isnt either. i would fool around with the coloring of it some if possible. maybe change the font to an outlined font, or try to dim the picture behind where the font is.

i went to school for a while doing computer stuff, im trying to offer constructive criticisim. if you need anyhelp, you can pm me anytime. i probably wont be too much help but you might have a question that i can answer every now and then

Glad I found this thread! Gives me some ideas as to what certain things on my truck will look like (Black 2006 F150 FX4). Definitely thinking the 2" leveling kit is in order in the future, along with tinted windows, and maybe rims in a year or so. Great work on the truck! Looks great!

Patent that stuff immediately. You can do a provisional patent in a weekend. I'm doing one now with my dad (I'll post some stuff afterwards) but if you don't do it, someone will steal it out from under you and then you are screwed. Its like 110 bucks and you can get it immediately in the patent pending stage where you can market it and the idea is yours. USPTO.gov to check it out.

The rear slides up and down, so you don't have to "remount" it in a different position, just slide it up. I welcome any input whether it be about the site or rod racks. I will be continually updating the site with more designs and options, along with editing any problems. I'll have some decals available soon, like TUNA SLAYER, BASS SLAYER, etc. Free Shipping too on them. I do need to patent this stuff now that's it's on a site for sale. I already have people asking for the dimensions. I installed a rack for a local F350 today. Just have to spray the support legs that are underneath it and it's done.

Hey Tuna, I'm not gonna lie, I'm gonna be using your idea for the clearance lights, they look sooooo sick! But heres my question. I understand how you grounded them but would you be able to just take a wire from the ground screw to the other screw and have that ground it?

When you put your lift on in the front did you have to get an alignment job done on it?

Yes, an alignment is an absolute necessity
