PrInSu Design Studio Roof Racks BS Thread

Anyone mounting their eye bolts anywhere but the channel horizontal bars?

 

I have a switch pro. So wiring is pretty easy.

Ran the wires down a small conduit along the side of the windshield (with wires for my scene lights) into the engine bay where my switch pro lives.
Wires from the s2s run through more conduit and zip tied to the crossbars right up against the side plates of the prinsu so they are hidden.

 

Hi,

I’m new here. I was wondering if the rack ever goes on sale ?

Thanks

 

Not that I've seen but possibly black Friday

 

Well this is a problem with my Toprac to Leer connection.

 

I ran into the same issue with mine. I stacked some extra washers I had until it sat right on the shell. There are possibly better ways to solve this but this was quick and easy. Everything is firm and i've put tons of stuff on the rack and haven't had any issues. I did have to get 1" bolts from home depot so I had enough room to stack the washers.

 

I may have to go that route if I can't figure it by tomorrow, I want to use it this weekend. I'm working on a way to shim the gap between the cap and the Prinsu feet so the bolt tightens flat and the outside edge is supported. Hopefully it'll come together.

Do you have the Cabrac too? I was wondering about the height differance between them? I have a Cabrac, just haven't installed it yet.

 

Are you using different mounting hardware? Seems like the stainless steel spacers it comes with would mark up the roof from off-roading and or vibration. I remember seeing someone that recommended using some nylon or rubber spacers instead but I can’t seem to find that post or link to buy those instead.

 

I do have the cab rack. They sit pretty level to each other. I mostly use it for kayaks and put one rack mount on the front section and one on the back and it works great.

 

That looks good. It probably depends on the brand and model of cap, but hoping for the best.

 

just ordered my cab rack today, any tips for install, etc? and are they shipping now with the rubber gasket for the bottom side of the wind deflector now as well or is that a item purchased separately?

 

If you haven't gotten one shipped to you, I just contacted Rogue Off-Road and they are shipping one to me here in Guam ($160 shipping via USPS Priority Mail)

 

Looks similar to my setup when I goto the Gulf Coast for shore fishing. My Prinsu CabRac has paid for itself already in the amount of use I've gotten out of it.

 

What did ya use to mount that panio case?

 

This

 

Oh ok! Ya used the rubber washers as a sandwich for inside and bottom of case?

 

Exactly! Mainly the interior to prevent water from coming in.

 

Thanks alot! That looks secure!

 

Got all the hardware at Lowe's

 

Awesome! I just got more recovery gear and needing a place to put it! Been wanting to do this!
