DISCLAIMER: Obviously, building a roof
DISCLAIMER: Obviously, building a roof rack that you're going to strap things to on top of your vehicle and then drive down the road carries some risk. Please be careful and take responsibility for your own design and build quality. I'm not responsible for any issues resulting from using something like this on your vehicle, :D.
In this video, I'm super excited to share with you how I created my own custom DIY roof rack using unistrut/superstrut. The whole thing cost about $100, was super easy to put together, and solved a lot of problems with the stock Nissan Xterra roof rack when it comes to mounting a roof top tent, awning, traction mats, and more.
I'd love to hear from you guys in the comments below if you've done something similar or if you have any questions about how I built this thing. Post up below and let me know what you think!
If you want to easily build your own version of this DIY roof rack, here are links to the items I used for mine:
3/8" x 4" x 5" U Bolts (need 6): amzn.to/3aWHJg2
5' Unistrut Channel Piece (need about 6 for Xterra, may vary based on your application-you can get this cheaper locally at a hardware store, but if having it shipped to you makes sense for the money, you can get it through Amazon): amzn.to/39Dyh3G
1/2" bolts with channel nuts (better way to do what I did-I used 20 so you'd want two of these sets): amzn.to/3lFfHum
Don't have Amazon Prime shipping? Try it free for 30 days: amzn.to/37zKapE
