Anyone Running Gamiviti Gutter Mounts and an Ironman Roof Rack?

[bicycleagent003]

I'd love to see some pictures and see how the Gamiviti Gutter mounts work with an Ironman roof rack.

Thanks in advance.

I just installed Smittybilt's HDS gutter mounts on an Ironman alloy rack. They are similar to Gamviti, and lowered the overall height by over an inch.

Thanks for taking the time to post those pics. Much appreciated. Is that the 6' rack, it looks like maybe the 7'2" version? Are you happy with the rack? I think I'm going to spring for the alloy version, too. I'm really on the fence about the trade version you got - I think it will make less wind noise, but I'm afraid I'm going to miss the full basket for more easily lashing stuff inside the rack. Decisions, decisions...

do all the iron man alloy racks come in that color?

Since we are talking gamvitti mounts

This is with a tundra front runner rack.

I purchased the alloy full length 7.2' trade rack. It weighs about 65 pounds. I like the sides for mounting tools and securing loads and the expanded metal floor. About half the weight of my old ARB steel rack. I did fabricate a wind deflector to eliminate noise from the rack.
I did not care for the Ironman mounting brackets. They were too tall and had adjustment knobs sticking out too far. I have used the smittybilt brackets on other racks and like their adjustability.
I believe all Ironman racks are this graphite color.
Cheers.
