    They might not be cheap man but that's the best mount I've seen for the XK.

    Thanks

    I'm still a bit angry with how i screwed up the finish of those mounts. I didnt get the surfaces completely flat/smooth for the re-paint, as you can see in a few pics. So when i make the last two mounts im going to put them on and take two off, then do a good job resurfacing and painting them, then continue the cycle until they're ALL painted correctly. Then i'll have 6 mounts and be good to go

    Oh yeah.... once I get all the mounts on I plan on using some blue locktite to help keep those tri-groove nuts in place and then spraying the nuts/washers with a quick coat of the black paint so they blend in a bit better

    That looks great. Does everything fit in the Garage still? Awesome Job!

    lol i'm going to test fit the garage today after my son is done eating breakfast... also going to try moving the rack back a few inches.

    I should fit in the garage. I measured about 8" of clearance and the top of the rack is about 6.5" above the roof.

    That is really clean, I like how close it is to the roof line & those mounts are great.
