80/20 (Erector set for campers)

[OCD Overland]

I can't say that I've had any issue with the connectors loosening, but then I don't leave my rack mounted permanently so it doesn't have a ton of miles on it. To the contrary, though, I was impressed with both the holding strength of the connectors and the hardness of the aluminum, and if I were to build the same rack again, I'd probably cut down on how many connectors I used.

I'd guess that it would take a good bit of use for things to start loosening, and would be a simple task to retighten if it were to occur.

Tons of info and builds using 80/20 on the sprinter-source forums

Cole on this forum built out his sprinter's interior using 80/20 and is a good example of what you can do. I'll try to find a link to his build...

Here it is - http://www.expeditionportal.com/for...****-did-I-just-fly-to-Maine-to-by-a-Sprinter!

He found his 80/20 locally as surplus - since it is extremely re-usable its worth looking out for it being sold off by a business etc.

The system begins at post 345, so you don't need to look through 30+ pages LOL.

Nice stuff and yes since there are so many applications, check for surplus, check those using computer racks, communications, utilities, government as well.
