P1000 DIY rear expedition rack & build P1000M3

New to the group and my first post. I have read a ton in so many categories and have found the information posted to be extremely valuable!

Here are a few pictures of my rack build. I will run it for 8-10 months and make any additional fabrication changes I need to. This fall I will have it sandblasted and powder coated. Don't mind the dirty shop.

It's the first one...... Mistakes were made

Thank you! That’s exactly why I built it. It worked great. It’s a little heavy maybe 100-125 lbs. These pic were from yesterday.

I like it. Would be cool to adapt that to replace the rear section of the cage on a 5 seater so It would act as protection for the rear passengers but also add overhead storage

I was looking hard at a 5 seater (Prior to purchasing the 3) and thought at the time if I got one I would modify a standard 3 seater roof and add a custom cargo basket to the rear roll bar. I ended up the 3 as the I wanted more bed space and it's rare I need to deal with more than 2 buddies. No one likes me that much I will say though that the honda bed rails are not as rigid as I would have liked. After purchase, I decided instead of resting the rack on the bed rails I would make it look that way 1/16 inch gap between the bed rail and rack with a bicycle intertube cushion/wear but actually have the weight of the rack and the attaching point in the bed itself. Time will tell if that was a good idea or not :/

I have the exact same machine. I'll come down and we can go duck hunting. Our season sucked up here.

Sucked here too. The season ended yesterday. We can get something set for the 2020/2021 season.

That rack is almost more art work. Really good looking.

Update-
Installed the factory winch, wire harness for the LED lights on the rack and tighten the rear springs. -Winch took about 4 hours.
-Rear springs took about an hour and a half. Removed tire and springs. I would have spent even more hours on it if @Cuoutdoors wouldn't have spent some time via email supporting though it. -Big Thank You-
-Wire harness was a little over an hour also. Mounted the two relays under the hood. I have ordered a 4 gang rocker panel with voltage gauge and 2 usb. This will be attached to a aluminum plate I’m making that’ll replace all the safety feature puplic announcement plaque. Got a project for next weekend.

Thank you! I’d say way to much time hahah (prob 30 hours) but it’s been worth it. Lots of trial and error. Prob more error. I ended up adding a bunch more to it. Addition water tank and spare tire tail gate. I’ll get some pictures added.
