You can just add a new toggle latch with padlock on the back… add 2…

Found a space trailer in NJ if anyone’s interested.

Finally took it out last night! Hamptons for the week. It drove great, but I’m still a bit nervous about the rack- especially when hitting bumps on the road. But we made it! 🎉

What light fixtures did you end up using?

Wow! 3 weeks! I did my registration online here in NYC. Got approved the next day.

Everything attached except for the black plastic end caps. But I’m still wondering if these extrusions held by a few bolts are really strong enough for a 150lb RTT driving around… is the weight evenly distributed to the 4 uprights? Would it make a difference if I added 1 more upright on each...

Found one in Buffalo

Hey @perkj did you use a transition bracket here? I’m currently just using the 1.5x1.5 extrusions for the crossbars since I don’t have the proper bolts for the 1x3…

@perkj hey! Where exactly did you place the washers on the long extrusions with the Bumax bolts? While I had the cover off the trailer and I had 4 additional M8 bolts - I ended up adding 2 bolts on each side for the long extrusions...

Anyone here have pics of their RTT on top of these trailers?

Thanks to you! how long did it take you to figure this whole thing out? If it was me doing this from scratch- I definitely would’ve had to make at least 10 separate orders from them 🤣🤣 Also, what made you use 1x3 extrusions rather than the 1.5 x 1.5 for the cross bars?

You’re right! They weren’t in the original list that I went by. Just ordered them now. Temp fitting for now.

Just got the hardware in. Seems like none of the nuts fit the M8 Bumax screw. Hmm....

Did you end up adding more bolts to the 73” extrusions on the sides? Also, did you use loctite? Thanks! Noel

I have a couple of spare Thule crossbars laying around somewhere. Hoping one set will fit- I know they’re mostly T-slots so I’m not too worried about that part.. I did 52” extrusions for the sides and the same 18” for the uprights...
