Currently building my roof rack out of parts from Harbor freight atv 2 inch reciever rack. Attempting to complete project for less than $200. Will post photos when completed.
Nice to see your in Seattle.. I grew up in Washougal. Yes I've seen the builds where they bolt them together.. I cut mine apart and am attempting a Garvin clone. So far the cutting is mostly done for the ends. Holidays cut into funding for the 6 sticks of 3/4x20 ft sticks of steel I need. But so far it's going well.
