Anyone running a roof rack?
I have thoughts to add a roof rack and have been searching and have come up empty handed. I can not afford a smittybuilt but was looking at this one from curt. The only problem I have is the mounting hardware.

ETA: The tab shown in the pic in my earlier post supports a full walk on platform on a TV ENG van with roughly one tab per foot of platform length.

^ I have the yakima setup for mine. just the bars and q clips though. Went sturgeon fishing with some friends, we used his ski rack clam pieces and it held pretty solid. Fortunately for mine I can use the bars with different clips on my wifes Toyota.
What are you going to be using the rack for and how often?
Check out your local craigslist, may have the bars and some other attachment for cheaper.

What size bed do you have? I carry an 18'2" canoe and 17' kayak and the racks on my cap that are bout 7' apart work fine no need for aything on the cab. I would look at somehing for the stake pockets or cap if you have one and not mess with the cab. Not neccesary and mort trouble than its worth

thanks for all of the replies. i have gotten some good ideas from the responses.
to anomic, i have a short bed. i want the roof rack/cargo basket so that i can through my dirtbike or 4 wheeler in the bed and then use the rack to carry gear and whatever else i may have at the time. it will also make a good mounting point for some trail lights.
