  1. I replied to the text. Can you call me back? I'm getting voice mail right away
  2. Where in the Sacramento area are you? Can you direct message me if you’d like. Or text me at 614-496-0408 I’m pretty sure I can arrange the pick up
  3. I will take them as long as I can arrange for pick up. Friend drives truck long distance. Any idea if the y are same size as 2015 model?
  4. Ditto on the hardware. Traditionally these are called plus nuts in my circles and work wonderfully. I have i think 4 that secure my channel. Some were installed using factory oval holes and couple i had to drill. Important getting visual on where you will drill. Especially around where curtain airbags are . Tape measure is your friend. Reinforcement crossbars are also should be avoided.
  5. In my opinion having that channel helps spreading weight of the feet over wider area. I only carry pipe on the rack. 100 lbs maybe 125 at most. System is rated for much more. As someone mentioned Ford has limit on roof load. I used TC for camping also. I moved cross bars closer together and had Thule cargo box on it. All felt secure.
  6. The feet can slide up and down on these Channel and you can have as many feet as you want. My cross bars are connected to these feet
  7. I installed Vantech USA roof rack that has channel i bolted using some original plugged holes and adding some anchoring points of my own. I will try to post some pictures
  8. Hello, collinjx! Please send pictures if your fan is still available. Thanks! Oleg
  9. I use same VanTech USA crossbars and love them. I didn't install them in fixed positions but rather on the U-channel/track I also bought from them. Plus nuts were used to attach the track and slider brackets hold the brackets. I can slide and position it anywhere on the track. Two nuts secure the brackets in place. It is all aluminum construction. I'm happy.
  10. Checking with a friend who is a trucker to see if he has loads in your vicinity. I have a LWB cargo van that I think by adding 3rd row will let me do some camping with kids and a dog. My 2015 van has attachment points for seat belt assemblies. Do you have this as well? I wonder if they're the same as your 2014?
