Hello All-
My 1st post here. I've spent allot of time searching for a stronger cross bar system for my factory roof rack. I have a Thule Atlantis 1800 cargo box which has collapsed the weak cross bars. All I can find that will work in this rail system is by Yakima and the price seems outrageous to me. Everything has to be bought separately and although they seem to have lots of different systems, the TB gets only the newest and most expensive components made, no other options available on there site.
For example; my '05 TB lists out as this:48'roundbar $89.00, skyline towers $295.00, Landing Pads x2 @ $96.00, end caps $10.00, roundbar SL adapters $30.00 which comes to ~ $520.00. Really........? And this does not include the locking mechanism!
Anyone, know of something practical that's available out there? and I thought replacement GM crossbars were out of line at $200.00 apiece
