Hey guys, thanks for the helpful video for installation. Just one thing, the M8 bolts for the rear were a little too short, so fastening the wingnut finger tight was near impossible without pulling down on the rack to give access to more thread. longer bolts would be better. Will be using this rack with a lightweight RTT and your 6.5ft awning, so we'll see how well they hold up in the field!
@@tdeeez I returned the Atlas cross bars and bought a Rival platform which ended up coming with its own set of issues. The Atlas racks are solidly built, just check the back brackets set up and make sure you can fasten the M6 bolts securely enough for your needs.
I actually purchased the product because of this video. The instructions were 100% clear and on topic. No BS. THANK YOU! They work great btw.
Thank you!! We're happy the video helped you with the install.

Any update on your experience? Just ordered this rack for an upcoming trip.

@@DaveAsher understood. Hoping for the best!
how much wind noise because my stock ones have a lot of wind noise when on highway or high speeds
@Ironman4x4 will the 80mm studs bottom out on the roof panel, etc..?
They won't, just pay close attention to the instructions.
@@Ironman4x4America thank ya!
@@Ironman4x4America tightened it until it got snug with a little blue loc-tite. Solid so far. I'm happy!
