truck chase/roll bar with a modern look

Post by dgeorgester »

A few weeks ago, I sat down with a black CAD screen and said to myself... "Self, build something for trucks that reflects your style". I took a little bit of design ideas from past projects, added a bit of ideas from pinterest and then started sketching and built this little doozy. This one I will definitely try to market. The one I"m building now will have replaceable/interchangeable sign, so one can customize the name, the girlfriend's name or the the company name. LED Backlit would be awesome too.

The width is also adjustable. The center sections locks everything in place. Stay tuned for updated pix with the rig mounted on the truck.

Great work. We’re you able to figure out how to design it so it can be mounted with a bakflip or similar cover?

That's the draw back of this design. If it sits on the box side walls, you'll have to either the cover of the chase bar.
