          Sorry guys, but I no longer work at the rack shop. Went a fucked my life up by getting a real job.

          Still might be able to get small parts here and there but not much.

                  sort of....like the thickness of the sheet of metal. as in I'm going to buy some stock and use my school's plasma cutter to cut out the outline along with some other things.....like take digital calipers to the sheet.

                    if your using aluminum 1/8 to 3/16 should work.

                      So, I just picked up a roof rack off of craigslist. It's an "automaxi" that I can't seem to find much info on. If nothing else, how bad is it to exceed the weight limits on these things? I need to move an older 48" TV that weighs ~185lbs. I was thinking of putting a piece of plywood across the bars, then a blanket, and the TV flat face down, and strapping it all down tight. Sound good or no?

                          My Thule rack was fine. I wouldn't risk losing a TV though.
