I too would love to see pictures of anything you do as I intend to follow in your foot steps and redo my 1991 Dodge 350 Xplorer. I'd also love to follow your blog when you hit the road.Safe Travels!
Yeah, I saw the 4x4 that uwsed the rain gutters as well as the guy referenced in the YouTube post who braced by drilling through the roof and placing metal anchors inside.I'd rather not drill through the roof as that seems a bit extreme and like dab...
I'm in the same boat with the same question (how I found this thread). Were the side gutters strong enough to hold the weight of a rack? The side rails on my Xplorer look pretty wimpy.
