PrInSu Design Studio Roof Racks BS Thread

There's a few on TW discussing CAD drawings of their trucks- do a search for that- perhaps you will find dimensions there?

 

Limb Riser project has been completed...

Messed up one of the Ferrules, so need to fix that, but other than that... pretty sturdy.

I need to get a picture of the bracket that I made for them still.

Total cost I believe was less that $25.00 or so, would have to look at my receipts and see.

 

UPDATE: I ordered my Prinsu Cabrac on 8/5/17 and just recieved shipping notifacation today 9/26/17.... soo about 7-8 week wait time I had on mine. Should be recieving it on Monday! During that period of time I traded in my 14 and got a 17... I know that the rack fits, but I apparently it won’t fit the back crossbar with the fun antenna? I’m not a fan of just ditching the back crossbar... I need suggestions.. So, post up some pics of the top view of your racks (2016-2017) to show me how it looks and how you guys set it up to accommodate for the antenna. Thanks!

 

Add the 1x1. Only $20 more.

 

Looks nice! I also stand corrected- the plain crossbars also look good on dark trucks!

 

20$ more? Where.. my rack is already on the way, on their website it says 30$ and my shipping would be 15... total of 45$.. ahh

 

Turn the last crossbar vertical

Not sure how much shipping would be, but...

 

Do you know about how much cable you used per side?

 

Less than 6ft per side, I bought 20ft of 1/8 cable and had plenty of left over, enough to make one more just in case.

 

I think I used roughly 5' per side. Add a few inches to fold over the cable on itself for the turnbuckles etc

 

You dont happen to know the what the distance is from the top of your bed to the top of your rack is do you? Im trying to fab up a bed rack for my rtt and I want it to be level with the rack when I buy it.

 

They made Australian flag models for a few select people that I would gladly rock if I could find them.

Screw that, go for broke and use LumiLor. I'm thinking of doing the interior of the canopy I get from @ChandlerDOOM with it.

 

I can get measurements once I get home from work

 

Thanks man that would be incredibly helpful!!!

 

What cases are these? I am looking to get one soon for my spare parts as well

 

Most people run the Plano 42 inch:

Although, the ones pictured look like they could be a little shorter and possibly the 36 inch:

Thank you man! Ordering one soon. Just found out my passenger inner boot on my CV is torn. Im going to buy a replacement and reboot my OEM one for my spare or vice versa. Looking to build up a nice little spare parts kit

 

For all of those that are worried about the shark fin antenna and the rear crossmember on your Prinsu racks....

The shark fin antenna is just a shell for a much lower profile antenna. You can shave/trim the antenna without affecting any performance or reception. You can also replace the antenna with a lower profile version if you are not comfortable with modifying your factory antenna. See pics below.







Here is a link where someone shaved theirs down.


Be mindful if you have navigation in your truck, you will have an additional antenna in you fin that sticks up slightly higher then the XM one, see below.

 

Don't have the numbers on hand but I tried to do the same thing with my setup. My Relentless bars I used are ~8" tall which puts the top of my tent roughly even with the top of the prinsu. Not entirely helpful but gives you a general idea.
