Off Road Roof Rack - Manufacturers, Factory, Suppliers

This is exactly what I was (you are) looking for. Seems to be a solid cargo basket, except for the space between the metal extension and the front and back sections. I wouldn’t put any weight directly in the gap. The directions are very simple to follow, but I did use my own Allen tool since this came with a cheap Allen that stripped on the first bolt. Mind the 150 pound weight capacity of this cheaper version. If your car has factory installed roof mounts be aware that it probably isn’t far enough apart to give you the most perfect support. But it fit onto my RAV4 adventure almost perfectly. It looks great and Instead of buying one with a logo on it, I’ll be buying a sticker to put on the front that fits my style. I’ve attached some pictures for you to feel a little more comfortable about it. The most negative feedback I could give, is that it makes a ton of wind noise if you plan on keeping it on your daily driver.NOTE: For the wind deflector, make sure that you put the clips on the right side, and in the right direction. There are three for the bottom which are a larger diameter, and three for the top which are a smaller diameter. The directions don’t specify this and if you start screwing in you’ll have to take it all apart to fix it. To that point, make sure that the side of the clips with the holes are on the backside to hold the nut in place while you tighten the wind deflector down. See photos.

IF YOU DO NOT HAVE THE CROSS BARS, DO NOT BUY THIS KIT I bought this kit because it said that it could attach without the cross bars. That was a lie. So now I have a useless basket until the cross bars show up. Which I needed the basket tomorrow. And now it’s a week waiting longer than I math’d for. ***EDITED TO ADD*** I’ve been using the roof rack for several weeks now. It’s very much worth buying crossbars to use it. Super sturdy and worth the purchase. Just wish they had been honest about the need for cross bars

We got this basket because with 4 kids, including 16 month old twins in monstrous car seats, we had very little cargo space left in our minivan. It was not particularly difficult to put together, but did take more than two hands. The directions while not particularly wordy, are sufficient to get the job done. It does take at least two people to get the fully assembled rack up on top of the car without tearing everything up. We have a minivan, so we did use the extension pieces. Attaching the basket to the cross bars wasn't difficult, but did require some measuring and planning. NOTE that you WILL need crossbars of some sort for your vehicle - this item is NOT supposed to sit directly on the roof of your car! I would suggest getting a bungee cargo net, or a rooftop bag to go in the basket. Overall, the basket has worked well for us and enabled us to do take enough luggage to go on a longer trip than we would have been able to otherwise. We are pleased with this purchase.

Seems to be a well-constructed and well-designed foldable bike rack for use with 2 inch receiver hitch. Bike holders have a hex key wrench to tighten after setting in place. Hold the bikes securely. Kit includes a retainer strap which is good for keeping the bikes from swaying back and forth while the vehicle is on the road.
