about the rig

Pulled the bumper for this rig to access hard mounts on the frame. Integrated speed rail starter onto the frame and built out with speedrail and hollaenders. Used over unders for our main hard mounted support piece to add rigidity. Could have used steel pipe but we didn’t have any on hand. Triangulated near the camera mounting position with more speedrail to 10” & 6” suction cups. Sometimes when doing vehicle rigs I like to ommit using any sort of leveling head and just mount the dovetail straight to a cheeseplate. I find those mini ball heads slip unless you can triangulate the crap out of them and this is sometimes a better solution. At the end we put the bumper back on.
