Strut is 1 5/8 by 1/5/8" approx 2 feet long. I also incorporated two washers between the aluminum bar and the U bracket to allow the strut to slide more freely. ![]() I then fabricated from 1.5" aluminum flat bar a spacer for the front side between the U bracket and the rail for stand off and spreading the load. I removed the springs as they were not necessary. Cloth/Vinyl Bucket Seats (G7) become only available in Black/Red. Here are the first pictures of the U bracket attached to the rail system and also a strut configured for the kayak rack.įor the U brackets, I used strut nuts (1/2") that I ground down to fit in the rail system. Rebel 12A (AZ6) package (Alpine 9-Amplified Speakers with Subwoofer, Luxury Leather-Trimmed Bucket Seats, and Uconnect® 12.0-Inch Display with Navigation) has been dropped. Eventually, I will paint the kayak rack when it is finished. Anyway, I will provide pics as I get those done. I did get sidetracked as my wife wanted me to create a way for her to take her kayak by herself. ![]() My plan was to be able to use the same struts and just swap out the hardware for the top vs. I then started on the rack for my kayaks.
