Does anyone have experience with these racks?

Kind of looks like a rack made of conduit then painted black, not something I would be happy with, especially at that price.
For about the same price I would go with this: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Weld...ryZ33651QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem
There was a thread in the 80 series section about his racks and they looked very good for the $$$.

It mounts to your factory rof rack? That's a joke right there. It'll hold "300" pounds? Big whoop... We've loaded 900+ on out roof racks.

For all the pictures and text, he tells you nothing about the construction of the rak, and only one picture shows you anything at all. Looks to be a bolt together construction, with "flattened end" tubes for the components.

My take is that it might be appropriate for a minivan or roadbound jeep gran cherokee. But not for real use on a real rig.

x2 on marks comments. even the 'luggage' rated Thule/Yakima load bars will only rate their loads at 150lbs, tho I've put way more than on my Yak w/no probs.

second ebay rack MUCH better. Now can we teach him the difference tween Land Rover and Land Cruiser? (last photo on his page)
