Warrior roof rack

I bought it and installed it. Its sturdy and doing well with my RTT but I think I need to switch to a different rack. Maybe one that is customizeable.

I like the look of it and if I didnt have the RTT up there I think I would be stoked.

Any recommendations would be appreciated..

 

Pics or it didnt happen.

 

got ya

 

Wow, that looks awesome man, looks like it holds a bunch too, looks good to me!

 

curious... how much MPG loss did you experience with the RTT mounted on cab?

 

any experience with the bed rack from warrior?

 

I'm sitting at 18/19 on the highway and I was getting 20/21 so I lose about 2 mpg.

I want to move the rtt to the rear. On a shell or bed rack.

I have 4.88 gears though so I'm a little low on the highway and better in the city.

 

Nothing with the bed rack.

Here are some thought on the roof rack.

It looks great and it's very sturdy. The wind diflector is solid too.

I wish the rim of the rack was squared off to match the cross bars as it's hard to mate any brackets off the side as the bar sits a little higher than the rest of the rack. You'll see some of my homemade brackets are pointed up from that offset.

It's really tight underneath and difficult to get your hands under to tighten any bolts ect and there's no access from the side or front if you have the wind screen.

If I could attach to the side easier that would help and maybe if it was a half inches more clearance from the roof to allow you to get your hand in a little easier

 

Warrior does offer a new Awning Bracket for the #4860 Toyota Tacoma Platform Roof Rack. It can be mounted to any of the buckets (top or bottom) and crossbars in a variety of configurations. Link: Click Here

 

Thanks for the info on the rack. Have you found any more pros or cons? Have you moved on to another rack? Have you ever looked into the Prinsu?
