Another reason to move to AZ.... i can take my own spy photos...
When i first installed my BajaRack I had some wind noise. When I installed the lights the wind noise completely went away. I like the rack sitting up off the roof a little bit. It can be easier to get underneath to attach bungees and I have to get under it to tighten and loosen my mounts. just a couple of thoughts. And dont skimp when fabbing your cross bars because there will come a time when you will want to stand up there.

Talked to my buddy from the bike shop today. Even with his discount, it's just not enough to "not" get a good rack. 99.9% sure I'll be rocking a Doc Rack in the near future
Being kind of excited about it, i was checking out Docs FB page and decided to take a break from messing around with my mounting ideas.... I felt like making an XK sized rack
Doc if you read this, just a quick note.... I've never built my own rack and know you're experienced as hell. I was just messing around with Pro-E tonight. When I get my rack from you, I'm going with your design, not my amateur 45 minute "wannabe roof rack designer" 3D model.
You put more effort into the design process than I ever did... lol... drew it with Sharpie marker on the steel welding table, did some long hand math right there on the table and started bending. Keep in mind my side tabs are not sheet metal they are 3/16" steel plate waterjet cut for precision and accuracy for the holes in the side to mount tools.

lol, well i do failure analysis and mechanical design for a living... how's that saying go? if you like what you do then you'll never work a day in your life? (Well, in my case you have to add in "except for when program managers piss you off" but thats another story, and the reason I read my daily Dilbert comic).
I actually used 1/2" plate for the model and 1" tube. It was just a visualization thing.... and because Jon Stewart was a bit boring tonight.
