I am wanting to install a Westin HD roof rack on a Jason camper shell. The shell is curved front to back, and the rack installs on tw rigid aluminum tracks that are supposed to run the length of the shell

Looking at other products online, it seems I need something like wedge gaskets. I called Westin, and they discontinued this product and didn't offer anything helpful. Also called a local Millenium Line X shop -- again, no luck

Anyone know where I can get wedge gaskets or some other device to work? The shell is fiberglass and I don't plan to carry more than 150lbs on top

By the way, the Westin rack is very solid -- if it weren't for the limited number of accessories (I have heard that Yakima and Thule don't make a lot of stuff that fits) -- I would highly recommend it

Thanks for advice
Gil
