Default Roof Rack

I am going to be making my own Gobi stealth with sunroof style roof rack and I need to know some of the specs of the rack. Is anyone willing to do some measuring for me or does anyone have cut sheets on dimensions?? I checked the web and I can only find sheets without measurements. Any help would be great, Im going to build it regardless but it would be nice to have some specs. Thanks in advanced!!

Alright me and another engineer found several measurements, and we are going to scale the measurements to all of the ones we can't find and input into CAD. This will be my drawing and template to make my own rack. I will update when I get drawing together and throughout the build.

in your future updates please upload larger pics

are you specifically trying to copy a gobi rack? You should try to make an H3 version of this rack!

Welded Mount to H3 u-strut on roof, need to grind out nice and smooth

This is a 4' x 8' sheet of expanded steel 9 gauge, this will nee to be cut to size for the floor



Base is welded to the proper length, need to clean up welds


This is my offset for the top rail where the lights will sit

Got the back of the top rail bent up need to weld it up to the correct length, its getting there.
