Good idea with the unit strut to keep it low profile - did you notice a difference in drag from the standard mount on the cross bars?

Thanks it was a big diff in just noise alone. I'm pretty happy with it so far it does need a third support in the middle though do to my mesh floor.
Matt, What you can do is as people start posting there baskets put a link to that basket in the first post so people can jump right to the post they want.

Rage roof basket 62.5" x 45"
First, I had to make some new cross rails that were lower profile (so i can park in the garage at work). I used curtain alluminum rails that we use at work. Cut them to length and test fitted them..............
Then I sprayed them with undercoating/bed liner stuff and installed them in their resting area..........
I gained 1.25"s of lower profile....with the sport bars (including the mounts) it was a total of 4"s high.......with my home-mades it came out to be 2 3/4"s high.
Then it was time for the basket......I picked this basket because of Sal's review and torture tests......Anywho, on to the pics.....
