I saved up to $180 by doing this myself with items that can be found at Walmart or any home improvement store.
This is the greatest rod rack that you can make for the money, making it on your own.

Love this simple hack! The inside of my CR-V is going to get a lot neater and my rods will be more safe to boot.

@B_the_Cameraman 4 жыл бұрын

Put a pool noodle around the rod in the middle of the cab. The rods will tick against the pole while driving and it gets annoying. You can also cut little slots in the pool noodle as well so they don't slide around.

I’ve seen the bars like that where the rods sit on top of both bars but I’ve never seen the rings. Neat idea

That's pretty cool but I would put some pool noodle material with grooves cut in it for the front curtain rod for stability and quietness. Just a thought.

On the front one you could add pipe insulation kinda looks like a pool noodle. Cut notches in it. It will stop the rods from sliding around

That's a great idea, but if I my suggest that up in front u take and zip tie half inch plastic spacers, and put them bout 2 inches apart. That way when u turn the car sharply the tips wont sway side to side, wat do u think.

@B_the_Cameraman 4 жыл бұрын

I did have to make an amendment to the design for this very reason. I ended up using a pool noodle with slots cut in it for two reasons. 1. So they don't slide around 2. So they are cushioned so they don't make noise bouncing around on rough roads

@monalisa1711 4 жыл бұрын

If you use a 1” or 2” thick strip of black foam weather stripping across the whole top bar with slits in it that will keep the poles from sliding or chipping.

Carrying them inside, makes the roof liner dirty, i have got some rust marks on the roof liner from the rods. It's also difficult to carry longer rods... I did this for a year and now moved over to the solution from GearRak. It's kinda expensive but build quality is solid. If I get lazy after fishing, I can just leave the rods there and the rods can be locked in place... Here's how it looks - kzfaq.info/get/bejne/na2FaLar1rG9nIU.htmlsi=onFfFW_2OUGqcAF0. There's a possibility that that it can still get stolen but not that easily.

I have a 2004 Highlander. I use 2 " velcro straps to secure the rod handles to the frames of my back side windows and use a 1" wooden rod for the front. I still get a bit of rattle, but that's ok. Do you have any problem with the rods sliding forward when braking?
