just get a small bottle of the affordable stuff... i picked up 100% clear silicone in the squeeze tube, you really cant go wrong with any of them, just stear clear of the "silcone glue" as it is a bit more hearty and may be hard to get those set screws out if you should ever want that roof rack back on for whatever reason

Looks ok to me, I think I'd rather see a Esky rack then it be bare.

i agree with you when it has a zero or mild drop.. but not slammed.. when its dropped hard not having racks looks more natural and makes the truck look even lower.. there was another bagged one with eskys at the last show (that we won) and even with the same amount of wheel tucked his truck looked way taller.

that burb looks retarded. I was all for the 'lade racks but not so much anymore. even on the z71 it really doesn't look right. I would like to see jk's with no racks

I think mob would do a chop top if he could LOL

i was going to do a chop to the windows and replace the whole top with a new frame and do the top in the lexan that you run a current through and it turns black.....

but i bought a new 1000rr instead.. it gets out of the shop friiiiiidddddaaayyyy
