I know the pain guys, many roofs have bloody curved sills and the prices of A/M parts are simply bullsh1t. The issue I see here with yours is that all the weigfht is held by the screws and those tabs. Many get stuck on the weight of what they put on but forget about the real reason for the limit, hit the anchors hard or have a vehicle impact and that weight up there amplifies and usually keeps going. The "backbones" need to be folded under the sill to grab in the moment of brown-pants stop/hit.
@@smarttouringsystems-garage I have had urges in the past to drop the head lining and insert a doubler plate behind roof skin and use a heap of RivNuts to propperly secure a low profile rack on hard points like many light to heavy trucks have.
Nice video, I’m enjoying the whole build. Thanks.
Awesome as mate
Doing well
Round holes and dimple them would have looked more modern instead of the rectangular shape
Thanks for the feedback

That is a great point and yes we will be careful not to load it up too much .
