Sierra 2500HD with Cargo Rack/Retractable Lights

Juse · 01-20-2009, 10:39 AM

I have been planning and designing this thing for little less than a year. Working and building it when I had the time and money.
I built a steel, with black texture powder coat cargo rack and incorporated retractable Baja lights. The light beams can move from about just above the hood to totally vertical towards the sky. Both directions have limit switches that will light up a LED when it has reached its max position.
At the rear of the Rack it has another Baja light that allows for light in the back.
All is controlled with a Switch panel that I built out of fiberglass with a plexy glass panel covered with a vinyl design. Switch lights light up whenever the lights are on. Just so I dont forget!!! Tell me what you think

ya, i do i think. before i made that cargo rack started what i want to call an Armodillo bar...."armor bar". I built the "scales" with pretty much one hand, due to a serious injury that i had. havent done to much with it other than what these pics show. usely i work on it when i have an idea for it, then stop and just rest on it. that way i can come up with possible ideas, and that way it is better quality. but here are some attached pics.
