What springs did you go with? It looks like the front sits a little higher than the rear.

That's a hell of a roof rack for being homemade. Nice job!

Lift looks good. Roof rack looks sublime. Mind sharing how you built it?

It is the OME heavy duty springs, forgot the actual numbers. My neighbor had an above ground swimming pool and decided to throw it out. So he gave me the tubing that was used for the frame. You cannot see some of the flaws but the top of the rack is 1/4" larger in overall size. I had to make fish-eyes for all the tubing(pain in the ***! I made all mounts for the shovel that's mounted ax and hi-lift jack. I have 1" spacers coming today for the rear.

That's an amazing use of a pool. No, I don't see the flaws at all. Nice job.
