Just wanted to show an example of a boat rack for a dual-cab hilux that was built in about half a day. Actually, this boat rack has already been to cape york 2 times, although it was on a Landcruiser ute.
This rack is made specifically to fit my Brooker 3.6m Aluminium boat on.
It was given to me, and then we modified it to suit the hilux. This involved cutting some bits shorter, extending others, and making up new mounting feet for it. It incorporates the standard headboard in the SR hilux, so the only mods to the actual ute body are a few drill holes (8 to be exact)
Yes it looks super bodgy, but this is a simple design that has proven to be very strong. It will be going to cape york again in May (next month yipee cant wait!).
PS Click on the photo to see the full image. Someone might like to educate me how to make the pictures show correctly within the post.
