Roof rack....please give details.

Size dims
How many rack to roof feet attachments
How it attaches.....screw...bolt...rivit?
Brand
Price
Etc.......

How do you like it's quality....paint/powder coating

Accessory gear and brackets

Would you do anything different, if starting over? I have a extra cab, so I have a little less room to work with.

PS. Can you remove and replace it with reasonable help, in case it became necessary?

It's made by Surco. https://www.autoanything.com/roof-racks/surco-safari-roof-rack
I didn't order mine from there but that has all the parts. Mine is 50" by 60" sitting on two 53" crossbars with about 8 attachments to each crossbar I believe. Had to drill into the roof to mount the rails for the legs. I like it for what I've used it for so far. Definitely could use a better powder coating job but for the price it's great. I also ordered the flooring kit that Surco has for it because it only came with three or four stock.

Hey Ya'll!

My Name is Logan and I'm from Wilmington, NC.

My Rig is a 1985 Jeep CJ7. She's a labor of love but I wouldn't have it any other way! I love to camp, backpack, hike, spend time at the beach and anything else that'll let me be outside. I'm pretty pumped to be a part of Overland Bound and I can't wait to hit up some of these meetups!

I'll be posting pictures of my rig soon... I just threw a 4in lift on her and she looks pretty silly with those 32's. Once she's got her new shoes I'll show her off to the world! Aka this forum.

Hi everyone. New guy here. Californian now in Indiana that drove a lifted Subaru WRX as my AWD fun vehicle for 16 years that finally gave out on me last summer. Picked up a double cab long bed Tacoma Off Road next. I love getting out to nature and am turning it into my camper vehicle with a shell and bed and insulation and lights. I can't wait to continue working on it and getting it dirty.

Hello everyone! My name is Ngoc (pronounced Knock). I'm from San Jose, CA. I recently picked up a 2015 Toyota Tacoma TRD OR. I'm really new to the offroad/overland scene but I have always been an outdoor enthusiast. ESP when it comes to backpacking, camping, mountain biking, etc. I've been following the overland bound scene for quite some time and I'm really excited to join the community and get out there!
