I haven't seen a need for adding a roof rack until this video. Most setups seem too tall or bulky, or they limit the use of the freedom panels. I really like what you did. Great idea and thanks for sharing with us.
I had a couple of those on my Tacoma a few years back. Unfortunately, I didn’t have the foresight to brace them and they cracked under the abuse of the sun and high speed desert washboard roads. Plus, I’m pretty sure I overloaded them. I say, if you can keep your weight down, throw a few braces inside and shy away from jumping your truck; the case will most likely have a lengthy lifespan.
Thanks! Wind noise that’s hard to say I have MT tires, aftermarket exhaust, and the sunrider so it’s alaways loud 🤣. Adding the rack and box made it a little louder tho…
With the mud terrain tires and sunrider suntop was already loud, so it’s hard for me say whether the box is noticeable louder. I would say it adds additional wind noise, but it’s not super loud.

Thanks! It’s been nice to have the added storage capability.
As always, great info. You have become my go to person for ideas because it is solid advice always. Keep it up.

Liked and subscribed. You got me thinking about some solutions to my situation.

Thanks for letting me know. I’ll keep an eye on it and add some braces when I have some down time.
This too! How did this hold up? Did you end up putting a UV protector or something on it?

Any roof noise winds?
