5.9 Roof Rack

So... They look pretty nice im not gonna lie... and theres this guy that just happens to be parting out a 5.9 near me and only wants 40 for the entire rack and cross bars... I guess the question is just for looks and cuz its only 40 and I just want to clean up the roof line a little.... Would it be a direct swap and is it worth it?


Thanks!
Dillon

I love mine , it's much better than the stocker , bolts right on , I say go for it , $40 is well worth ot IMO , make sure you get 4 plates with it that go under the four corners

what's the difference between these and the regular 5.2L and 4.slow racks? these one's more or a streamlined look?

I like. I'm really hoping to find a wrecked white 5.9 in my area to grab the seats, other snazzy interior snippets, grille, and hood from. I'll add the roof rack to the list, it looks nice.

Hey, I can dream right?

Dillon, does he have the electric fan? If so, you should ask him how much he wants for it for me!

sorry for the hijack, but i suppose its kind of related? Is $75 a good price for a 5.9 grille, or should i haggle with the guy (i have an option to buy a 5.9 grille)

Terrible deal, but I'm willing to pay it. Send him my way!



I'd try to haggle down to $50 or so, but I imagine I'd pay $75 if it were white and perfect.
