Thule Gutter Foot
1988 Toyota Ex cab
1993 Saab 900
My rack is a Thule with gutter feet. It has a set of bike rails on it at all times but Ive hauled everything from a couch to a canoe to a kyak to a dining room table! I did have my bike on there one afternoon and thought I would buzz through the car wash, I was wrong! The best was then I bought 8 16' 2x4s and strapped them to the top when the rack was on my Saab.

1. '99 4runner/'97 LC
2. Factory roof rack w/ Yakima SpaceCadet(15 cu. ft). Cargo box is used in both vehicles depending on which one we take on trips. It gets taken off and stored when not in use.
3. Golf clubs, stroller, hockey equipments, camera tripod, misc. things. It's mostly packed to the max when in use.
4. Sorry, no photos.

Stock rack
Ladder, Christmas trees, dog crates (collapsible), and for road trips I have a soft car-top carrier from Cabela's that holds luggage, water jugs, tent, sleeping bags and dog food.
Good luck with your project.
