H3T Truck bed rack for RTT

[Chris Cordes]

Well I have to say this rack couldnt have looked better on my truck IMO. I picked it up last week and after some welding and paint I had left over from painting my rims I had it ready. I havent seen one of these on an H3T before so thought I would share. Thanks again Jeremy! Now just to find a roof tent

What type of drive train is in that thing? does it have lockers? What kind of fuel economy are you seeing?

 

[txflyyaker]

IMO painting the wheels makes it! BTW nice rack too.

Just saw this truck in person over the weekend. Thoughtful build for sure.

Looks great! Very unique.

Thanks everyone! For the person who asked about drive train lockers etc im not sure the type of transmission but it has a straight 5 cylinder with 239 hp and 241 lb/ft of torque. It has front and rear lockers and last time I checked I averaged at around 14 but i drive in the city a lot with a lot of added weight.

same underpinnings as a Chevy Colorado/GMC Canyon, I believe.

There is some overlap between the Colorado and the H3, mostly the I-5 block and 4l60e transmission. The intake on the H3 was modified to be lower (to clear the lower hood height), the differentials on the H3 are Cast Iron (on newer models) vs Cast Aluminum, forged control arms instead of stamped, full-time 4wd transfer case in H3 v 2wd/4wd selectable in the colorado, lower gear ratio in the H3 (I think 64:1 in the I-5 version). I think the Z71 Colorado has more in common with the H3, but not 100% sure about that. I don't believe you can get lockers in the Colorado/Canyon.

TXH3T - your truck is looking awesome! Makes me want to get rid of my H3 and switch to a truck. You are doing a great job representing the brand and using your truck for exactly what it was designed for!

Thanks! whats the point of buying one if you dont use it! I love the T though you should switch

The rig looks great! I like the rack design, which is very similar to mine.
Mine is lower to keep the RTT out of the wind while driving.

I also made some brackets for my Yakima ski/mtb racks to fit on the cross bars.

Here is mine I built last year.

That looks great! Ya I like that yours is positioned out of the wind. I think for me my truck bed is so small that extra vertical space might be worth it. We'll see as time goes on I guess
