Do you happen to have a part number for the proclip mount as I can't seem to find it on their website?

I think they're redesigning it a bit since I ordered mine. The one in your link looks a little different... The larger platform probably helps keep it steadier with larger devices.

Thanks! Dethloff Mfg. made my rack... It works great with the ramboxes - very happy with it.

Nice truck and cleanly built.

I think the wheel size and tire size ratio looks great. Safe to air down I mean. These trucks are great. I have a friend with a hemi with 220,000 on the clock. He was never nice to it, Tow’s a huge mastercraft with it and it’s still kicking. Good luck bro. One thing I know is when you start to hit that stock overload capacity this truck will sag and bottom out just like a smaller truck. A rtt, fuel cans, full size spare which I highly recommend getting as well as all the other gear is going to weigh heavy. Btw these look awesome with snorkels...

Here is my 2015 Rebel. I figured I would post pictures here since it was heavily inspired by DVC.

I've gotten into SUP lately, and the bed rack with a Rhino-Rack Pioneer platform on top ends up being the perfect height for a board on my Thule DockGrip carriers. Marcus from Dethloff Mfr made me some custom brackets to connect the platform to his 2" cross bars... Much cleaner than the stock Rhino-Rack brackets.

Looks like you're pretty much building out what I want to do... I appreciate so much what you're sharing. I'd been waffling back and forth on the ramboxes, just because I wanted to be able to do the tonneau and rack system.A few new additions to the truck...
White Knuckle Off-Road Rock Sliders - I got these mounted on the truck last Friday, and they proved essential while off-roading at AOAA last Sunday. They bolt to the frame, so they're very solid (you can use them as a jack point); the extensions work great as side steps, and at helping to deflect obstacles from the bottom of the chassis; and I think they actually look great on the truck.
Dethloff Mfg Expedition Rack - Dethloff was kind enough to revise their existing Rambox-compatible rack design to fit short bed Rams. I've been working with him to get all the required dimensions, angles and specs for quite a while, and at long last the rack arrived a couple days ago. (A few days too late for the AOAA trip, but oh well). It bolts into existing holes hidden underneath the bed rail end caps - except it's recommended to drill one hole on each side at the front corners...the HDs have holes here already, but 1500s don't.
Once mounted, the rack is rock solid. And the curved bars are a nice match with the flowing lines of the truck...I really like the looks of it. It comes with two straight cross-bars (not mounted in the pic) that can be positioned anywhere along the length of the rack with roll bar-style clamps. There are optional riser bars for use when carrying long items that would stick out over the cab. Thule and Yakima rack accessories will all easily mount to the 2" cross bars.
I also worked with Dethloff on an idea I had for a low profile MaxTrax carrier that fits up between the cross bars to minimize obscuring vision out the rear view mirror...he's working on a design for that, and it should be completed soon.
Looks so awesome :)
