PrInSu Design Studio Roof Racks BS Thread

Really liking the Prinsu. Went from Front Runner Slimline II to the Prinsu. Two totally different styles but the Prinsu is a better fit for me.

 

Cool thanks.What did you end up doing on yours? i'm gonna have to pull the rack off and have my rails fixed before I do anything.

 

Just noticed on Prinsu website they now have Leer mounting feet. Maybe that will correct the issue. Would have been nice to know before I thrashed my tracks.

 

For some reason Prinsu’s website is not smart-phone friendly for me; do you mind sending the link to those? Thanks.

Here you go.

 

Anybody have a problem with Carriage Bolts in the rails? I just tried mounting a box to the rails and before the nut could go all the way, the carriage bolt spun and created a circular hole in the rail....

 

Does the wind deflector usually sit that far back to where you can see that much roof between the rack and the windshield?

 

No, it should mount farther forward. Atleast it does on the double cab.

 

That’s pretty far back. Should be like this

 

Thanks for the idea @IYAOYAS

 

This is on a gx470.

 

New member here. Just installed mine last week. Absolutely love it. Thanks for the ideas, I'm definitely gonna go with the pelican case mounted on there

 

Haha, jokes on me. The rumble noise I thought was wind turned out to be a bad wheel bearing on front passenger side. Bearing replaced and ride is now a lot quieter. Figured it out when taking a curve at highway speed and notice the “wind noise” disappeared when making right turns

 

Easy install. Tape, 3/4" tapered punch, 3lb hammer, silicone and a extra person to get the rack up top.

 

third gen people this may be of interest - with this you can use the rear cross bar

anyone know where i can find 2"x2" replacement bars for the prinsu? i bought mine used the previous owner had them on and i could use a couple more but my googling is coming up empty

 

“T-Nutz” I assume you are looking for 2”x 1”. You can also get them from Prinsu/CBI

 

I have the 2"x1" on my cab rack and 2"x2" on my top rack to lift the tent a little. Just wanna add some more to the top rack for peace of mind but striking out

 

Regardless check out T-nutz

 

That might actually work. Thanks man
