My load warrior came with clamps for the stock roof rack. They are actually kinda slick. They have a quick disconnect design. Only down side of this is that it can be stolen very easily unless you go beyond the design.

I found that the load warrior really hurt my gas milage and that I just didn't need the extra storage so I sold it to someone who actually uses it.

you can get the locking cores for them but its like an extra 40 bucks. I use my loadwarrior for hi jack, coolers, extra bags, jerry cans and what not. Useful but it does kill gas mileage

yah i figured gas mileage would suffer a bit during highway driving at least...

i only plan to use it mainly on camping trips, weekend trips to my cabin, and various occations when extra storeage would be nice or when i don't want dirty items in my rig...

does anyone know if the Thule basket comes with these clamps aswell?
