Awesome! Can't wait to see your photos of it mounted on your LC!
 
Finally got the rack on Friday, now I've got to find the time to install it. Anyone have any tips on the install?

It should go up top, near the roof. ;)

Jokes aside, isn't there some type of instructions? I'm guessing just a bracket system then the rack mounts to the brackets?
 
Yes, there are instructions but I'm hung up on two things; 1. Should I leave the gutter trim in or take it out? 2. Under the factory feet there are rubber seals that fit around the two bolts and seem to be epoxied in place, do these need removed or do you bolt the new feet directly to them?
 
I just checked my installation, which Paul did for me, and the pads/spacers need to be left in place.
 
Got the rack installed last week and I love it. I'll try to post some pictures soon.

Since the directions were a little unclear to me on how you're suppose to install the support brackets, I took some step-by-step photos of how I did mine. That way you guys can let me know if I did something wrong or maybe it will be some help for the next guy.
 
Here's a few snap shots of after the installation.

With the deflector, the wind noise is negligible. Not really an issue at all.
 
TXBeachCruiser612 - is it hard to wash the roof with so much coverage? Do you have the removable panel over the sunroof (off in the pics)?

With the lift I can't see it anyway. :D No, seriously, there is enough room to get a hand under it. That and the ability to get a hook or strap from the underside are reasons not to try to mount it closer to the roof.
 
um....Gobi Racks...try google.

They are not listed on their crappy website. Only the FJ-60 rack.

I was just wondering if a Mud vendor sold them.

No big deal. Jut looking for pricing.
 
He is so busy keeping up with orders they haven't had a chance to update their website! Call the main number 720-479-9372 or Paul, the owner directly at 303-947-5623 on his cell.

Wow, it really is crappy... @Gobi Racks, I know a guy, let me know if you'd like a web designer :D

On a more related note, I love the look of this rack. Pretty slick.
