I'm shedding my rack for an ARB Simpson III for this years adventures. My question for you is this, have you ever mounted an awning to your rack? Or do you know anyone who has added an awning to an MBRP rack? Trying to find a 'best practice" for an awning mount.
Thanks! K

A friend of mine who used to post here on JKF (many of the first few pages of this thread included his images) had an awning mounted to his MBRB rack--both with and without the extension. His name is Mark Van De Velden--you can track him down on FB if you have questions. He's since moved from Brunei (where the Jeep was) to Belgium, so no longer owns the Jeep. But he's a super nice fellow if you want to contact him. If so, let me know and I"ll message him so that he expects your questions. Here are a couple pics of his rig ...

If anyone is interested, over the past month and a half I've been sharing with some close friends a review of my (and my friend, Ray) Al-Can trip last year. I've taken those posts and compiled them into a Word document. They are a remembrance of the trip, written one day at a time. In writing that, each day I reviewed all of the images I shot during that day of the trip and shared some I had not previously shared--I guess you'd call these the rejects, LOL. Anyway, the document is almost 150 pages long, but that's mostly images. If anyone wished, I can provide you a link to download it from Dropbox. Just PM me your e-mail address.
These will give you an idea of what it's like ...

I've been on this site for a while now but don't post super often. I'm turning to more of an expedition build and recently installed a new roof rack so I thought I might as well post up! Here are some photos of the current set up with plans to build a custom cargo system in the near future, once I have that completed I will post a photo or two of that. I haven't seen a ton of info on this rack, especially on a two door. It is a Rhino Rack Pioneer Platform with their Backbone system and I'm extremely happy with it so far and have plans to mount an RTT on top for summer. If anyone wants any other info feel free to ask.
