this is just a rough drawing. i used cad for some of the measurements got the rest with the good ole tape measure.. its basically a 4 foot by 3 foot roof rack mounted to a headache rack with some kicker rails down to the rear stake pockets and side rails for structural support.. tell me what yall think..

yea i had it drawn in cad and a cool 3d model but froze the comp and it didnt save... 2 hrs of work lol.. but i luckely wrote down the measurements of the kickrails it calculated.
 
yea.. i regret not doin it but o well... ms paint is the king lol.. should be a fairly easy build.. just gonna get a headache rack and a 4x3 roof rack weld em together and get some tubing for the kickers and the supports
 
Looks kindof along the same lines as the rack on my Ranger that I mounted to the rollbar.

I took it off though as it steals a good 2 MPG (fawkin' $4.50 a gallon, every bit counts)
 
It looks good but I would run another diagonal that splits the difference between the one that you showing going vertical and diagonal.
