HOOKE ROAD Roof Rack...............Ubox-offroad.com

Sorry been off like lately

The rack is tapered
If you look at your roof line it tapers smaller in the rear.
I had another set of feet that I used

The stock one would work. But I had to cut the rails even. Too a jiz saw and straight line added my hole where I wanted the feet and done

 

Woot! Mine came today. Been waiting for them to refine it more. For the money it seems so far like good quality. I wish it was a bit wider but I'm really a function over form guy. I'm not building a mall crawler and at the end of the day this rack is a darn good steal. I'll be able to put the excess money towards my awning, trax, and a water system. Ill be mounting 2 of the lights on the side and maybe 2 on the front not sure yet. Will be installing this week.

 

Awesome! Make sure to post some pics after mounted

 

OH you know I will! I wish there were more pics of it up around the web but now I just get to see it in person. Lol all parts accounted for. Silicone ready to go. Just need wire to wire the lights up to my ditch lights but I'm not to worried about that right now.

 

Any idea how much weight this rack will handle?

I'm on the hunt for a rack that will accommodate about 200lbs of speakers.

 

I would imagine its near the OEM spec of 150lbs as mounting points are essentially the same. There are some that have successfully loaded a substantial amount more weight than that. I wouldn't want to place anything too bulky up there for sure.

 

This is on Amazon but I wouldn't be surprised if there is varying info found on other sites

 

Close, this is the average set up...

 

Held my RTT, me the wife and some gear

I had this rack on my 05 DC but I took it off. Anyone who wants it for free in the San Jose area, pm me.

 

Realistically so far as I'm concerned, for the price this rack is a great option. It's rock solid, holds me easily standing on one cross bar with no flex on the rack or the truck body. I mounted the lights on each side and still need to wire them up. Overall I really like it and am happy with it! It looks nice and finishes off the roof line in my opinion. Sure it could be wider and look a little cooler but at the end of the day a rack is supposed to serve a purpose and not just look cool and it will do that fine!

 

Idk why pictures arent working to upload. Dangit.

 

Only if u was closer to Vegas. Lol. I'd give u some $$

 

So did anyone end up cutting one to make it work on their camper shell as well? Figured I’d ask before scrolling thru all 35 pages.

 

Yes... start scrolling

 

Did I see a pic of someone who cut the edges off and rounded them ?

 

Page 15 shows a pic

 

Yep just found it lol. Thanks. I have a home made prinsu style on my shell and if I could make this one match the roundness on the back id be satisfied enough to not rip it off and sell it. But most likely it’s gonna come off and build another prinsu style.
