You should paint the walls with chalkboard paint, instead of white walls. Just write ideas on the wall, then wash them off later

Haha thanks guys and yeah we thought about the chalkboard on the walls but my dad is still trying to rent it out!
So I got some HUGE updates for the rack! So I picked up some 3/4 angle iron to weld in for the basket. Mocked up, my friend and I took our time wedging it in and giving about 4" of space between top and bottom.
After that we laid 2 sections of expanded metal for the bottom and a thick 1/4 inch piece between to give it the support.
Welded on the underside which hides how bad the welds are... The expanded metal just melted away like paper, I tried turning down the settings but ended up noticing it didn't grab to the main angle iron. Next up the drawer sliders, I bought a couple of 1 1/2" plate to drill some holes in a weld into place.
My best weld yet
I drilled 3 holes rather then two to give me some good secure support
Sliders in place
In...
Out...
Testing to make sure it's strong enough! 157 lbs I know I am a bit light but I think thats plenty of strength right?
Next cut out some new feet because the previous one are wayyyyy too thick...
Next I taped all 4 together to drill threw them all at the same time...
Cleaned up
Next had to test to see if I could get the tie downs in... It was a bit tricky but got it! After this I am planning to slot each one so you can just slide them in... Thats what she said
So I took it to our bandsaw, a bit hard to cut straight but I eventually got them all together!
All 4 ready for welding up
This is probably the best one
Tacked
All done!
Testing the height...
None in the Xterra yet, it's in but no pics until tomorrow! I am going to take it in to get it sand blasted tomorrow, I still have a few things I am planning on welding on still but I can wait for those until later, those things will not have any rust or I will grind them prior. I am thinking about using an aluminum mesh on the front face and rear for looks to give it a tactical look. Also plan to add some tie down spots. I hope by saturday to start making the drawer and mounting it cut off the bolts and adding some aluminum plating for looks. Also got some other fun stuff to post up soon

A few more of the rack in the X as promised!
Right now its off at the sandblasters, while I was dropping it off I asked the guy what he would recommend for powdercoating the bumpers. I asked about the wrinkle coating but he wasn't too fond of it, I think I will talk to him again and see if he can get some samples of different kinds to use. I am looking for something durable but that is a flat black, he was telling me about all the different variations they can do.
While I am here I am going to post up some pics of the new lights
In Package!
Out of package! These things are great! When I first picked them up I was shocked at how light weight they were... My dad was too but they are pretty nicely designed and much higher quality then those PIAA's The bolts come with Nylon threaded nuts which is awesome and true stainless steel hardware. They even came with some special locking nuts so someone can't steal my lights off the bumper without the key. And 2x sets of filters... I am not a fan of the yellow though
Out with the old
Bare
While I was looking at the quality difference I could even see it in the gauge of the wires and rubber that covers them
The two sets of nuts that come with it, the locking and the nylon threaded
Have to have a key like this
And here they are mounted! But not wired... That will be a big huge project as I plan to get all my wires for even roof and backup lights all laid out at the same time with a setup for my switches and relay's and fuse box!
And while I am at it I will throw some more up this time of my Ham Radio
This thing is a beast!
I don't know where I am going to mount it yet
As you can see virtually all of the metal is a heat sync because it's 75 watts which is more power then I am sure I will ever need
More to come later, maybe tonight!

Do you know what it is that he is using? The guy I was talking to said there is all kind of different ones like poly something or other and rubberized kind and even hybrid's that he has used. I didn't get to talk to him for long but I think I am going to do some research to find the most durable and best look before I pull the trigger and thinking about doing some modifying to the bumpers and sliders this spring when it starts to warm up and I got some cash. I will also recoat the wheels too.
Thanks Kevin, I sure like them! I want to get another set of the 170's for the roof and the smaller 140's.

well I got some more updates! Also got from OTRATTW my new fuse box and Amber switches - Driving Lights, Roof Lights and Backup Lights! I will get pics of those when I start the wiring probably next weekend...As for the rack yesterday got it out of the X, now that is all sand blasted!
So I knew my plan was to do the drawer out of something light... I first was going to do fiberglass but where my dad was busy painting the new shop and didn't have time to help me I grabbed my friend, we soon realized fiberglass would just take too much time... So then I thought about aluminum that will be bolted together... I wanted 3" tall angle pieces but found they only had 2" and it was $45 for 1x 8' long piece. So while we are the depot we took a walk and I started thinking why not use the shelves we use for the lobo rack mod?! And here we are cut to length!
I used the wire wheel on the grinder to remove some of the coating, though later I will try to remove all the coating...
Next up the sides, I realized 2" deep drawer with about an inch of space above it will be plenty!
I know I wanted to have an aluminum face so I welded on some tabs
First side tacked in
I then screwed up when I welded the other tab on and put it at the top rather then the bottom, but thats actually a good thing.... I will be later taking two long pieces to each side and welding it in to give it support... That will come next week
Only problem right now is that the holes don't line up which is okay because I will fix it later by either filling it in or drilling new holes...
So I had some scrap aluminum laying around which I used here but will replace later with a taller 3" piece, thus why I wasn't worried the holes don't match up!
The drawer is actually very very very light which is nice because it's going to get heavier with the hardware I am going to be adding. I am ordering some various parts from McMaster Carr next weekend, I will have a handle with a lock to keep the drawer in and 2 small turning style latches on top to keep the lid closed when I put the foam in... If you can't picture it dont worry I will show you later.
First test in the X at it's lowest level
It's just the perfect height to even double as a work bench! Which is part of the reason it will have a lid on top.
The shelf I bought was only 20" deep which means there is a 3" gap between the front of the drawer and the floor which may double for some other stuff later wink wink**
Next testing to see how the space under works at it's lowest level, notice the foam on top is a sample piece that I got from lights package it is 2.5" tall which a little much but it might work, I am going to play with it and use my dremel and other things to see the best way to cut it for each tool but most likely I will be getting a special foam that comes in 3x pieces, a bottom later which will be black a middle layer will be red and top layer black. Middle layer is the only layer that gets cut for tools (or my AR-15 wink wink)
I asked my friend Alik to hold up the trunk lid to show their still plenty of space to get underneath and get to anything you keep in there
Also when you pull out the lid it still works
So next to show it at it's lowest then raised up for something taller like a cooler underneath
This isn't the max height not even close actually but this shows their is plenty of space and it barely is as tall as the back of the seats at this height
Drawer out, still easy to access and really isn't that tall when your standing next to it. I should have taken a picture of me standing by it but maybe next time
So far I am extremely pleased with it, next weekend I will weld on the support structure for the front of the drawer and fill the holes then get some new aluminum I will order my handle which will be attached to the face, and some other various stuff and I will start painting the rack and basket it's self but will wait to finish the drawer until the following week when I start laying the foam. I may also be adding a second drawer underneath since we found the sliders are easily removable by two little plastic latches on the sides, the second drawer will hold my AR-15 when I go offroading/shooting but normally would not be in the X all the time... I may just leave that idea for future fun

Yeah don't worry I will only monitor until I have my license. My dad and brother will use it if they are in my truck though since they have their license and call signs.
Thanks I am going to check it out... I am planning on using tax returns to recoat my bumpers and wheels so I have until probably sometime in february to find one I like.

Actually thinking about it but I would have to try and figure out how to build a jig and make it a little quicker work... Probably use new steel and got to figure out something better for the legs, also wouldn't be able to grind the welds down because I would need to make it pretty fast to sell a few of these and make some money. My dad decided to keep the big shop so we may move in sometime this month so if thats the case I need to help pay him some how so I might produce a few small things like these racks, a custom lobo rack and maybe a gas can holder for the shrock

I wish the 1st Gen had the tracks like the 2nd does..Dave! Let's put our heads together on this one, see if we can come up with something..
- Location

FYI it's official we are going to start building something soon for sell... I can't tell what yet but we are starting with something easy that I have not seen any other X owners build. My dad wants to start producing something and trying to make some money so we can afford to keep the big shop for ourselves! I suggested the idea at dinner today and he loved it! I will start taking measurements and pictures soon and my brother is going to bring over his solidworks and CAD programs over to run on my quadcore computer (he's a mechanical engineer) so we are going to design it on the computer. We will hope to be in the new shop for building a prototype on my X first and then if we like the design will begin production and selling! We are hoping to get it off the ground shipping by the end of the month! Also this idea is universal and can be used on first and second gens...
Also debating on names for the new business, I am considering using something that I came up with a long time ago for a club but now will be my new business which is United-Echo however my dad's existing business will be the primary company with UE being an subsiding company... If things goes well and just to let you know we are pulling our resources and will also be using "brand new steel" not scrap metal that I buy currently for cheaper then we hope to make a few bucks and start building other various things. The rack wont come along for sale unless we do well with the first product so just an FYI... But to also let you know if I do sell the rack I have a new idea for legs that will make the whole rack more functional and lighter, I will also redesign the feet and may or may not have the drawer system (may be an optional extra)

Good luck Kuma. Don't you think maybe you could share the idea first and see if there is an interest for this product before making them?
I know everyone would be interested in bumpers and roof rack systems if the price is right and the style of course, sliders too. Heck, you guys could just do it all if this thing takes off, skids too. Well maybe im getting a little ahead of myself now...sorry.

A rear hatch tire swing out?
New Front Tube Bumpers?
The market is so small on these.I do agree on the start of a feeler thread. Id hate to see you guys go thru this and end up empty handed. I cant really foresee that seeings how there are plenty of people would buy your rear shelf if you could make it shippable.

Dude when you guys a have a prototype you should do a Kickstarter project its a way to get the funding and sell product all at the same time.
- Location
- Murray, UT
Yeah I have heard of kickstarter before it's great! But at this point we gotta get a design together and trust me we are on it! I will start a thread when I start gathering idea's and plans. I got a lot of project's on my plate right now Lights, Rack, Radio, some graphics I was hoping to have ready for moab but things keep me with drawer's block, and much more
However this last saturday I got something I have been needing to do finally done! I added a lock to my drawer so it will stop flying out and hitting the back hatch when I am driving. I also need to give the face of the drawer something a little more sturdy, so I went over to lowes and picked up some 1/2 inch tall and 3 feet pieces and welded them into place
I did it like this to give a little support on each end with a little flexibility incase the drawer gets weighed down it can bend and flex rather then breaking the rails
Looks mighty nice I think!
Filled in the holes that were way off center too, my welds are starting to get better
Next up was making a lock, so I picked up a little piece like this after getting my Cam Lock from Home Depot
I didn't have any drill bits big enough so I had to use my dad's die grinder with a metal boring tool which worked well except our small compressor only lets it go for maybe 30 seconds at a time then you have to wait about 2 minutes. Once we get the new shop we will have the big one and that will be nice!
Here is a demonstration of the lock in place
Obviously it's pretty simple and most of the day took trying to get that hole big enough next time I will just get a bigger bit
Finally welded in place
Next to prepare the aluminum, I chose the side that has the sticker on it because it looked better but either way I will be sanding or using steel wool on the aluminum to give it a brushed look, may even use the sand blaster lightly on it.
Test fitting everything
It works like a charm!
Got my new aluminum piece ready, still thinking about buying a 3 or 4" tall piece to replace this one
Ugly sticker but I counter sunk the hole so the screw will sit flush on the face
Finally back together and testing!
It works fantastic
Next saturday I am going to add some tie downs on each of the two short sides and maybe something smaller on the front and back then a few supports on the basket and will call it good for a while. Which means paint will follow that!
So hopefully I can do all that quickly next saturday so I can get started on my lights and radio! Waiting now for a new dome light assembly w/ a sunglass holder and it's from the tech package so I will be using that to mount my new switches

Thanks guys, I got a little more to do but you can plan on this rack changing and evolving. I may even sell it and restart later, if I do then I will making one that is a little wider but as of now I am planning on adding some stuff to the sides of it that can be changed out at anytime for example an air compressor on one side and a place to put some oil, brake fluid and steering fluid something you might need on the trail and so forth
Dude that turned out great, If I didnt have a raingler shelf and dogs I'd probably be hounding you to make me one, It looks great. But i'd hate to have something i have to pull out when i have large items to put in, the raingler is nice cause i can just drop the ties and its down. but yours is really great, excited to hear whats coming next.Yeah I have heard of kickstarter before it's great!

Haha yeah I like the raingler nets and thought about doing one but wanted something to really be able to take out and add at anytime, problem is mine isn't nearly compact as I wanted. If I do sell this one and make a new one the legs will be removable and so I could collapse it down to minimal size But I kind of want to get a raingler to over this as a way to tie things down!
