Slim Roof Rack
- drop in roof rack #2 laying low
Xterra 05-15
Xterra 00-04
3 weeks to build at the moment, powder coating adds up to 1 week
Tools needed
9/16 wrench
included 9/16 crow foot
ratchet and 10 inch extension for ratchet
optional: second patient person if available
optional: 12 inch long and 1 inch tall piece of wood or something softer than metal for lifting the rack while adjusting the U bolt mounts
Similar to Lowrider install
The install is similar to Lowrider install, however it's more of a 10-15 minute install instead of 5 minutes
The U bolts point inwards and require the use of the included crow foot for the 4 lower nuts
Install
Place a blanket on top of the roof, then lay the roof rack on top
place the U bolt mounts around the stock Xterra 2 inch tubing, inserting the rubber padding around the stock tubing
You will need to use the included crow foot on a 10 inch extension on a ratchet to tighten the bottom nuts
Tighten the upper bolts slightly, then switch to bottom ones, tighten them barely as well
Repeat for all 4 corners
Tighten the bottom 4 nuts more, but not completely, then match with upper nuts
Finally fully tighten the bottom nuts first, only then the top ones
