I have finished welding up my new roof rack and it felt pretty heavy to me so I put it on a scale and it weighed 40 lbs. I was a little surprised as I expected it to weigh at least 50 lbs, but that has gotten me currious, so how much does your home built, roof rack weigh?
For a comparason if you purchased a rack and put it on a scale post it up for a comparison.
Include the rack, the mounts, and any cross support poles, if applicable, but no equipment attached when weighing. This may give the "your raising the center of gravity of you rig" crowd more ammo, or a reason to shut their mouth (I don't notice the added 40 lbs on the roof until I add the spare and hi lift).
Thanks. :wave:
