upTOP Overland Racks and Accessories - NOW WITH FREE SHIPPING (CONUS ONLY)

generally a week or two

 

Totally forgot how killer the wait time is when you really want to get stuff done, lol.

 

Just ordered my Bravo rack and 2 pairs of grab handles!
Are they shipped yet???
Kidding, but so pumped to show it all off

 

Thanks to @ExploreBackcountry for sharing the wealth! Awesome member sent me this perfect tool. Previously my pins were all left unlocked, because they are way too stiff to turn by hand.

 

I think I saw a video where KC makes a wire cover that runs down next to the windshield seal and covers your wires. Might be another option.

 

Hard to believe it’s been over a year. I remember when it all started.

 

Any thoughts on making an AAP for the victory 4x4 roof rack?

 

Awesome. looks interesting and not bad. https://www.kchilites.com/universal-wire-hider-kc-6300.html

 

Looks a smidge bulky, but a pretty clean method.

 

Ya. I zip tied mine on the top but now Im thinking i could have just just used small strips of 3m tape on the wire harness coming down. It's not noticeable when driving. The zip tie kinda stretches the rubber that's there and I don't like that. But i think just some 3m tape applied to the glass and just stick the wire harness on to it will work.

 

I’m probably going to end up putting some cable management stick-ons on the rack to retain the wire. Also, I’ve replaced the drip rail inserts with what came with my rack and have considered drilling a hole through them (2 actually) and coming out the drip cover a little farther back.

 

Just got done installing my bravo setup. The rack is great. Can’t wait to get the roller bar for the kayak and take it out this weekend. The handles are another story. The tie video is great for the paracord but the wire keeps splitting anytime I’m trying to get it in the crimp locks. Have already gone through 3 wires trying to clip when it frays. The locks just can’t seem to get both wires in. Love the rack though

 

I have a question. I am wanting an UpTop Truss Retrax bed rack to go with the RetraxOne XR but I am planning on buy the bed rack first. Can the Truss Retrax bed rack be mounted to the bed without having the tonneau cover installed. Thanks

 

unfortunately not, it need the tracks on the truss to function

 

When mounting a roof rack, what type of sealant is preferred?

 

This worked well for me.

$8 Permatex 82180 Ultra Black Maximum Oil Resistance RTV Silicone Gasket Maker, Sensor Safe And Non-Corrosive, For High Flex And Oil Resistant Applications 3 oz

Really any silicone will do. make sure to get it around the spacer and some in the threads to seal everything up

 

Cool, just like basic silicone sealant, I’ve got that

 

Could I get an update on Order #1942SY?
Thanks.

Edit:
Forgot that it was 21 business days not calendar days.

Disregard my request. Do your thing, you guys.
