Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)Rack is well built and looks to have really good paint coverage. The mounting brackets that come with the kit are 6-8" flat bars that are to be mounted one above new rack and one below existing rack, then through bolted (they did provide locknuts, washers, and bolts). There are 4 sets for each rack. These are to provide the most flexible mounting options. I would recomend ditching this hardware and buying some "U" bolts (the ones with the crossbar) from the local hardware store. If you buy the same size "U" bolts you can still use the provided locknuts and washers. I suggest this for 2 reasons, first, the rack on my rincon sits very close to the body panels and it would be almost impossible to get a hand or tool in there to attach the washer and nut let alone hold it to tighten, secondly, the "U" bolt will provide a much more secure mounting option. I installed the "U" bolts where frame members on the new and existing rack crossed, in one spot that was'nt an option so I put the "U" bolt through the existing rack frame and up through the new rack wire mesh and put one of their 8" flat bars on top to spread the torque when tightened down. I did mount all the "U" bolts open end up so the it was very easy to install and tighten the nuts, I then cut the extra threads off an dabbed on a little paint.
This is MUCH easier than my ramblings may suggest, I just wanted to get all the data in there.
Bottom line, Great price, Great product
