***CLOSED***2016 PRINSU Design Studio Roof Rack GB FEBRUARY 26 - MARCH 11

Thanks for your unwelcomed opinions.

Uhhh, of course I know you are not Zach... my point was you are not him, so don't pretend you know what he is thinking.

Next time try to learn some proper response from other good TW members here, as an example:

Sipxelz:
Guys, you are all in good hands! I am sure Zach is working hard to get all the orders processed in a timely manner. I can only imagine how busy he is, between this, his normal job and family. I ordered just after the groupbuy because I was still on the waitlist and don't expect mine for weeks, it's just the way it is with a GB of this size. Alot of time and effort has gone into this on his part. Just sit back and wait, the end product is amazing even if it takes a little longer.


Lets try to treat each other with respect and courtesy on this forum.

Also, next time when you decide to comment know your definitions of

Analogy:
a similarity between like features of two things, on which a comparison may be based:
for example - the analogy between the heart and a pump.

Order Fulfillment:
(in British Englishorder fulfilment) is in the most general sense the complete process from point of sales inquiry to delivery of a product to the customer.

Customer service:
Customer service is the act of taking care of the customer's needs by providing and delivering professional, helpful, high quality service and assistance before, during, and after the customer's requirements are met.

You will probably respond with more demeaning words and rudeness. I welcome you to prove me wrong and have a civilized discussion.

Thanks but no thanks for your input so far.

 

You're welcome. Enjoy your rack Alvin.

 

Benefits of working from home is normally a lot, but right now it's really hard to focus with a pretty box sitting in my living room...

 

Meanwhile in portland...

 

For anyone who has mounted their roof rack already. Any clearer instructions on how to measure and cut holes for the spacers to go through the roof molding?

 

which lightbar did you use?
is it making much noise?
we're always looking for tried and true!

 

I went with a Black Oak single row 40inch. It was a little more spendy than ones you find on Amazon or ledwarehouse but it comes with a lifetime warranty and IP69k rating. Since it rains here 9 months out of the year, those things were important to me. Plus they're a family owned business out in Florida with excellent customer service.

 

As for wind noise, its there past 65mph but unnoticeable if you have music or pod casts playing. It's more of a "wind drag" sound vs whistling. Honestly not a big deal to me, every roofrack/lightbar combo will make noise.

 

Aaaand that confirms why I should not work on my taco. I was cussing so much and a little too loud that the neighbor though I was fighting with someone and called the sheriff to come check on me

 

The hardest part of the install was cutting the weather stripping. I followed the online instructions but couldnt get a clean cut with cutting bit. In the the end i used a sharp exacto knife to make fine adjustments to fit the spacers. I can understand why some members would leave out the weather stripping or cut them into pieces.

 

Thanks for the info. Yeah I realize that all of them make some sort of noise, but you've confirmed for me that a single row works best with the prinsu. I love supporting small businesses!

 

Nobody likes a salty know-it-all

 

Ohhhh yea. Big Brown Truck came by today. I was #109 on the list and ordered the first morning of the code word. Already assembled. Painted stand offs black and going to give them another spray tomorrow. You can tell this setup is quality, not junk. I'm even already fooling around with it, one side I used 1/4-20 stainless bolts to mount the tracks. Used torque bolts sent on the other side until I decide. Big thanks to Zach for a no hassle straight up great deal.

 

@Blackout14 what rails did you use on the shell for mounting the prinsu? Looks like the height came out close to the cab. I have similar setup but have not sourced rails yet

 

Is that an ARE cap? Did you cut the weather trip on the cap cargo rails or just leave it off? Looks great.

 

Do the mounts that come from Prinsu work on the cap rails?

 

Yes. Comes with all the hardware for it.
