If you need some inspiration, In this video I show you how I built a roof rack, low profile, slim, platform rack that looks expensive but costs less than half of the big brands.
This rack is designed to be universal for any vehicle that has roof rails.
The great thing about this rack is it's highly customizable.
Dimensions of my rack, 75" Long x 45" Wide.
Would love to answer any questions you have about the build!

First time I've seen welded unistrut. Looks fantastic.

This is brilliant! I've been looking for a way to make a good rack for my Discovery 1, and I believe a modified version of this could work for me! Thank you for your ingenuity, and for sharing! Also, your video production quality is excellent!

NICE WORK! I have a unistrut rack from home depot as well! I'll be incorporating that rounded corners style from you as well, it looks much nicer!

Nice job! I am wondering how did you made mounts for roof rack because those Discovery rails are curvey and unparallel...

@joetrigone5068 3 ай бұрын

Definitely looks good. What might be the best way to attach to roof rails, or perhaps cross bars?

Looks fantastic! How is the road noise? Does it whistle a lot? Curious if all of the holes help or add noise.

@brandonpetrykowski 11 ай бұрын

Thanks! Surprisingly low noise. Only noise is wind audible from the first 2 rails that are right above the sunroof. Remedied by stuffing a strip of pipe insulation that was ripped down the middle. Fitted it in gap of the front 2 bars 👍

Hey, the mounting brackets that vertically come off the track to secure the unistrut... where did you find those?

@brandonpetrykowski 6 ай бұрын

Hey! I actually made them! Watch my other roof rack video and it shows a little how they’re made.

Any idea how to mount on a car like a Hyundai Pallisade, where the brand solutions clamp on to the side... rails? Not sure how to call them..

Great video, I have a LR3 as well. How did you attach the mounts to the car? I see you welded an L bracket but I do not have access to weld.

@brandonpetrykowski Жыл бұрын

Hey Jose! Search Amazon or eBay for any generic LR3 roof rail mount. Anything that has a mounting point that you can bolt to will work fine 👍

I just did this roof rack but unfortunately the wind is so loud and it howls. How do you have this from not howling?

@brandonpetrykowski 9 ай бұрын

All racks make noise unfortunately. Hopefully you used the half size unistrut instead of the full size. Also, depending on where you have the rack placed on the roof. Farther back the better. You can also “pitch/tilt” the rack to be shorter in the front. Last is cutting pipe insulation wrap in strips and wedge them in the unistrut channels so wind won’t catch. hopefully some of this helps!
