Thread: Gutter mounted roof racks

Where have you sourced the clamps from?

A classic roof rack is pretty simple, and I have one if you want the pattern (actually, I wouldn't mind selling it or swapping for a disco rack). It's fully gal, full length.

Disco is a bit harder due to the drop.

Attached is a sample of the clamp I think would be best.

I have the same mounts on my WindCheetah roof rack (which is essentially a Rackmaster from OL). Very secure...didnt have to tighten it on my last Simmo trip. Although mine has a grub screw that goes through the shroud around the thread which clamps down onto the thread to stop it moving...if you get what I mean.
