PrInSu Design Studio Roof Racks BS Thread

Both look really clean, nice work! I've hesitant to put any lights on my rack because I was worried about running the wires but I'll have to reconsider.

 

Looks great! Thats where I put mine as well! These rigid scene lights are just perfect for the prinsu rack.. I have six of them all together spread out. Lights up the area amazingly.

 

What adhesive did you use to secure the cable to the pillar? Tried 3M outdoor adhesive and it didn't last a day

 

Very clean install

 

So far, there is no adhesive. It only seems to come out slightly at the bottom. I have been considering some type of adhesive, but since its not really bothering me, i may just leave it

 

Hey all, I think I figured out a way to make frontrunner accessories for the side rails work on prinsu racks.

If anybody is interested... https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads...ead-picture-heavy.488565/page-7#post-15451105

@Jack0928 was looking at running some rotopax mounts and I thought of it.

 

Picked up the new yak, and tried out the rack for the first time!

Need some adjustment on the rack as my antenna is having trouble getting signal.

 

Ahhh I see. I thought it was supposed to be the other way but the guy helping me from the store put it like that and I was too lazy to flip it. Now I know for sure tho

 

I just mocked up some 1x2" extrusion and then spaced it at the max length the rack can go for my length of bed

 

I'm confused by this sentence

 

lol nah it was at Austin Canoe and Kayak in San Antonio.

 

hey im trying to work on a bed rack design with my RTT, anyone offhand know the height that the prinsu sits say, above the top of the third tailight? just so i have a good point to measure off of.
dont want to wait 6 weeks to measure it myself

 

FWIW - this is what i did for my 40" lightbar, for a bracket. It's a cradle setup using the front and 2nd crossbar, that would work sitting behind the shield in a 50" .. just a whole lot of bending involved with a hammer and heat to make two identical'ish bent brackets. As seen in the photo - it's shimmed high and too far back .. that was adjusted.

 

great job!

 

Anyone mounted a cabrac on a DCLB and toprac on a high camper shell with Thule tracks? Wondering how it looks, pic of my truck below for reference.

 

Just Ordered for cab and ARE topper.

 

I haven't, but I like the way that looks. High shell and long bed must give you all kinds of room for activities.

 

Works out well for "sleeping".

Helped lead an install today for a local guy in the overland group. Super fun! Pics of the process in about the correct order. Just for those of you waiting on a rack...and those that will be ordering one soon. His went on easy about 1/2 the time I did mine own and it was a better job. If you can get someone that has done it before it can be very helpful!
