I want to made a rack for my van, need some ideas for look.
I need a place to mount my awning, tv antenna, work lights and canoe.
So if you have a roof rack on your van, please post a pic of it

I have a 5x7, comes in handy on trips. I have some tabs welded to the pass side for a future awning.

I did a search before posting but didn't find what I was looking for.
Find many racks on smaller vehicles but that's just not the same

Yes, it's custom. I plan to put it into production one of these days, it's just not on the top of the list.

ujoint,

what mounts did you use on that van to mount your roof rack, home made or bought?

 

[ujoint]

Thanks---- The rack is an ORU Defender unit, with their mounts. Basically the same as the old Con-Ferr racks. I modified the rack for my specific needs.

roof rack

here is the rack i made for my blazer. i made it from 1" HREW tubing. the floor is a combo of 1/2" square tubing and expanded metal.
i machined the mounting feet to sit fluch over the factory roof rack mounting points.

i also made a front and rear bunper for this truck but dont have pics. its been sold many years ago.

this rack served me well for many years. hauled anything and everything imagineable. for camping, mtb-ing, canoeing and any cargo.

i will build another for the AWD astro i am going to buy.
