The one I ordered came with three different size mounting brackets, 30 mm 65 mm and 85 mm I drive a Toyota Prius how do I know which clamp is the best fit
How did you determine which of the three sets of clips to use? Is it clear in the instructions? This is the only "clamp on" type roof rack that I've found anywhere that claims to fit a late model Dodge Grand Caravan. Probably because the roof edges are like no other vehicle I've seen. There's simply nothing to grab onto. I may order one anyway, knowing I can send it back if it won't work. But after shopping far and wide without finding a supplier on this planet until now, I'm just a wee bit skeptical. But thanks for pointing me to it.
@@MommyCheDugan I may just give it a shot and see what happens. Or maybe ask at Amazon to see if anyone has tried it on a vehicle like mine. Thanks again :-)
@@glenmelton9308 I would have sworn I replied to this a couple of weeks ago but I don't see my reply now. Anyhow, no, I didn't try it. I decided to have a permanent rack bolted on instead of a clamp on type. And I see that this one is no longer available on Amazon.
Also placed the entire rubber thing in and didnt allow for the other end to be mounted with those 2 screws. Had to remove and cut im guessin. Overall decent vid thgh
That was awesome. Thanks
Glad you liked it!
I agree. I tried this type and returned it. Rachet type worked very well with the large size.
Life saver. Great video
My question I wan to buy roof cross rack , so I would like to know does it make noise when you drive ,
Please tell me if you found a similar crossbar. Also if it'll fit a Chevy Cruze please let me know
I've been considering these for some time now, just wondering if they work loose at all? The big brand name racks are outrageously priced.
It works for us.
How much weight? We are considering putting a rooftop tent on one or one similar
no, its good for like 150lbs@@taylorbruch4703
Have you test if it's sturdy? I'm thinking about getting one of these for my trip next month. I'll carry a roof basket with some cloths.
Yes, just follow the weight capacity.
Awesome. Thank you 🙏🏻 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻❤️❤️❤️
I prefer speaking over music, but thanks for the video

We use 30 in the front and 65 at the back.
Why didn't you mention the brand or a link to it? There are many 48" universals out there.
Does this scratch the paint of the car? Like the areas where it clamp on?
Fantastic sharing 💖

My husband said it's trial and error. We figured out what clamp to use in ours by trying it.

@@rphantman8224 good idea :)
Did you get this to fit? looking for a rack for my 2012 GC

This type is crap. You need the ratchet strap type that pulls at ends . This type lifts brackets up as you tighten. Very dangerous.
You used the wrong clips on the front but the correct ones in the rear
Thanks for noticing.

Will it fit a 2019 Acura MDX?
I found the clips far to thick and made doors very hard to close.....solution?
I binned them
Where did you get this set and what brand is it?
I got it in Amazon but I noticed that the item is unavailable but I will message the seller if there's another link for the product. Thank you
Where did you get the rubbers for the bottom of the bars? It only comes with a rubber on top
It's included in the package
@@MommyCheDugan I didn’t get it in mine, so I had to improvise with scotch tape
It also makes a whistling noise while driving over 50 miles an hour. I’m gonna have to get a windbreaker.
It sounds like a stove, old-school tea pot that whistles when water starts boiling
Maybe that's the reason of the sound
This crossbar price please
Where did you use all the washers and lock washers
0:41-1:00
@@MommyCheDuganthe washers or gaskets as they’re labeled are not used in this time frame- just the locking washers.
The music is awful! Good video.
Whats used to strap boards on the top?
Search for Amazon Surfboard Tie Down Straps.
@@MommyCheDugan thanks so much!
Uh no locks no keys this roof rack could be stolen easily
