I agree 100%. Just got back from a trip to Montana where I encountered various weather events mainly windy from all sides. The two cargo boxes attached to the roof rack were solid. Wind noise minimal most of the time except when coming from the side which I attributed more to the shape of the...
Traveling in Montana and so far no unbearable noise from the rack or cargo boxes. Recovery gear in passenger side box and fly fishing gear in the other.
Here is what we wanted from the beginning. We wanted cargo boxes that didnāt look like Yakima ( which we have ) and Thule. Low profile to the roof and large volume. And the ability to remove the roof panels. Leitner was the only company of all the ones we contacted that met those...
Hope youāll pardon me for putting this here:

We successfully installed a Leitner ACS roof rack on our ā25 Heritage. Price for the OEM roof rack was dropped to $450 pickup or Iāll meet up part way up to 2hrs...
It shipped same day I ordered. I had it in days, so within a week. It was a big heavy box and everything was wrapped very well. Same instructions as what is online.
Yeah, I would have that confirmation for sure.
Temp placement until the brackets for our cargo boxes get here. There are a total of 6 cross bars with ours 3 to the front and 3 to the rear.
Iām very impressed with the build of this system.
The slots were definitely not 1ā. And when I contacted Trailmax and others I checked the depth then Leitner replied theirās would fit. Interestingly, the price jumped $550 shortly after we bought ours which was a little over two weeks ago.
We just finished installing the Leitner ACS roof rack. Iām relieved it worked out so we can continue with our plan to mount cargo boxes and other accessories. Before I bought the racks I contacted them and they said they it would mount on the painted roof. And the roof panels can come off as...
If anyone in the Seattle area or similar distance in Oregon or Idaho wants the rack Iād travel 1/2 way to meet. The rack can be broken down smaller for transport.
Switching to another system this weekendāknock on wood it fits.
This OEM roof rack was removed yesterday. Excellent condition. Nothing was mounted to it. We purchased the Heritage Nov ā25 so barely used in the sun. All hardware including the special wrench is included. Iām in SE...
@BuckinBronco69 Leitner replied their roof rack will work with the painted top:
āThank you for contacting Leitner Designs. Our roof rack is compatible with the Painted Hard top! Please let us know if you have any other questions.ā
When the rack arrives first thing Iāll unpack is the clamp and...
the painted roof has shallower slots In the rear area. Trailmax amongst others have said their racks donāt fit. Doesnāt stop some folks though as youāll see those back clamps flexing near the slots. Leitner said their racks will fit the painted roof. I have theirs arriving next week and will...
Iām waiting to hear back from them about the painted roof issue many of us are encountering with companies like Trailtax. Thank you for the quick reply.
