Post subject:  Home made cross bars

Somebody on the forum made some cross bars that would fit the OEM KJ roof rails by simply gathering materials from the fencing section at Lowe's. They used sections of chain link fencing post, along with post couplings as brackets, to construct cheap and simple cross bars.

Who was that? And, if they read this.. do you have pics/info. on that project?

I remember that, don't remember who it was sorry :(

however, several of us have gone the U bolt route combined with 2x2ish square aluminum with equally as cheap costs with excellent results

fence posts can be found in 48" lengths im sure, the aluminum, well I got mine in 100something length, cut a 12" piece off, then cut the rest in half
