What's the I.D. dimensions? I've been looking for a way to haul 4'x8' sheets of drywall, on the top of mine...

Default h3 cargo rack

the i.d. is 48"x93". i made the frame from sch40 pipe instead of tubing like the gobi so it can handle alot more weight.

The rack looks great, looks heavy duty enough, But be careful of the weight limit for the roof tracks. only one full casket at a time!

You should be selling them, I'm sure others would like to buy them...

I'll bet you could even do a stealth version if you put your mind to it! Maybe fill in the sun roof for those that don't have one? Looks like you have cargo hooks welded on, that's a nice feature. Is that a light bar up in the front I see? I think so. I'm sure you could add a wind deflector real easy to the front. That would look good.

I'll bet you could crank them out in just a couple days. If I did not have a rack already, I be reaching out to you about how much it would cost to make me one!

Can you take a pic of what u did to attach it to the rails? We just returned from vacation in Va. and the carrier we had actually dented the roof so the wife asked me to find something better and I think I just did!
