PrInSu Design Studio Roof Racks BS Thread

Uh oh that might be why, the screws are security screws and need to be tightened with a torx bit.

As far as where you can get more:

$11 Fastenere Torx Security Sheet Metal Screws - 1/4-20 x 1/2" (10-Pack) Stainless Steel, Tamper-Resistant, Button Head Screws for Higher Level of Safety & Theft Prevention

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00VVIL6FI

If you want the black coated ones I would just get more hardware from zach

 

Here are the exact one's Prinsu sends:

Steel Pan Head Machine Screw, Black Zinc Plated, Meets ASME B18.6.3, T30 Star Drive, 1/4"-20 Thread Size, 1" Length, Fully Threaded, Imported (Pack of 25)

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00F36Q8MK/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o04_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

 

Good find!

 

See my first post here for an even better find ....Black and SS which won't rust: https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/alternate-hw-extras-etc-for-prinsu.498163/

 

Hmm interesting point about the alternate foot. Mine also had a slope but I cranked the shit out of it until it was secure, but it didn't sit well with me. Just wish the brackets weren't $85.

 

Agreed, however I felt is was a necessity as its a safety issue IMO. Prinsu should supply a set of feet like the alternates I posted vs what they currently have.

 

For confirmation... if I wanted to use a punch instead of drilling my weather strips, this is the one I should get (3/4"), right?

$13 General Tools 1271I Arch Punch, 3/4"es

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00004T7WD/_encoding=UTF8?coliid=IYY25AL4LXFWJ&colid=121LIQS7H4U3Q

Or for a dollar or so more... this set should have me covered:

$20 SE Heavy-Duty 12-Piece Hollow Leather Punch Set - High Carbon Steel, Machined Grip, 1/8" to 3/4" Sizes - Includes Zipper Pouch for Gasket, Leather, and Light Metal Work - 791LP

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B000KE17JO/_encoding=UTF8?coliid=I3LI8OU3FD6JN0&colid=121LIQS7H4U3Q

 

So I was at a client's sight implementing software, and another random employee of theirs came up to me and asked if the red truck was mine, and then asked me all about the roof rack! The prinsu is a top quality product and I told him where to order one. That's just one story!

Funny that after 2 weeks of having it I've already had many people ask me where to get one for their tacoma!

 

Sounds like you need to write it off as a business expense

 

Haha I should.

 

That bottom set is what I used, just needed the 3/4" one. I didn't need to pre-cut the underside or anything, it went through it all nicely.

There is a photoshop request thread here: https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/photoshop-request-thread.17542/page-453

Get a direct side profile picture of your truck and someone will photoshop them on there for ya.

 

you should be fine with the cabrac, Traditional Thule cross bars will work on that shell but I doubt the PrinSu will

 

@zscott Sent you a PM IRT the Cargo Basket kit.
Thanks for your time

 

Some progress. Still have to fabricate some aero bar adapter shims and drill them for these J's.

Made possible by the boss lady, I made sure to get her lunch

 

Wow that's a good sign. I built it at home. Designed on CAD LT. Just right for what I needed.
Here's my build for more info on it: http://forum.expeditionportal.com/threads/164767-2017-Taco-TRDOR-Overland-Build

 

Can someone with a silver or white truck comment on the off hood glare from your 40'' light bar in wind deflector cutout? I ordered a spot beam, hoping to minimize glare, on my old truck the glare off the hood was unbearable from my roof mount led. Hoping with the spot beam and mounted on the prinsu rack it will be ok.

 

Following, installing Prinsu and 40" light on white truck tomorrow

 

Let me know how it goes, my rack is in the mail so hoping to get it all installed within 10 days or so.
