Because someone stole my Thule roof rack that came with my used camper shell, I had to try and re-create it with discontinued components. If you are wanting to do this, here's what you need to know about the pieces you need and where to find them. It may not be easy (or cheap), but if you keep looking, you'll be able to do it. Here's what you need and how to get the best price. Some important links about the various bits of hardware I mention:
Available but expensive Thule 430 Tracker: www.etrailer.com/Accessories-...
INNO load bars: www.amazon.com/dp/B00120OKKI?...
Mission Automotive end caps: www.amazon.com/dp/B0949RFJ23?...

Thank you for taking the time to make this video and sharing the details. This will help me. Nice truck and rack system!

I'm glad it helps. This is why I make videos like this. I had to do a lot of research to find out all this stuff in order to buy the right parts. If this saves you time and effort, or makes it easier, that's what it's all about!

I bought a used leer camper as well but the 180 for my 2013 tacoma long bed And I found a thule cargo box and the bars came with it but i need those parts that actually go on the camper. That sliders (what you're talking about) and I cannot find them. You just taught me a lot. Thank you. I still can't find them but I understand what I need a bit more.

Glad it helped. Mine came with the track already installed, plus the original Thule rack, which as I mentioned, was stolen by some scumbag. To get those tracks on your shell, I would check with truck accessory stores. I bet they could mount a set on them for you. A professional job is crucial for something like this, as you want the holes they drill to be watertight.

Have you hauled a 12-foot aluminum car topper boat, and if you did, how did it handle the weight?

How do you get the locking cores out?

do you have any play or wiggle in your 430 feet where the bar goes through the square hole? got some used ones today and am just noticing a little wiggle where the square hole connects to the rest of the foot. ty for video! very helpful!

Do you mean where the load bar goes through the top of the tower, or how the tower connects to the foot? It should all feel pretty stable and secure, no movement. If it's where the load bar goes through, tightening up that allen bolt should do it. You may need to play around with those pieces without the bar on to make sure they are working and nothing is missing. The bolt needs to go through the right place so that it raises the top part that presses against the bottom of the load bar. I had to mess around with mine at first a bit to get everything in the right place. You should see that top piece rise up as you tighten the bolt. Make sure it's working first without the bar going through.

I’m looking for the lock cores and you have the same rack towers. Do you know what model number those lock cores are?
@vfxtutswithdan1893
@vfxtutswithdan1893 Год назад
I don't know. Thule makes cores that fit in all sorts of their stuff. I just bought a set from ebay. The main thing you might be looking for is the number for the key.
