I've got 4 mounting legs (for 2 bars) sitting in my garage collecting dust. You'd have to source some new cross members as the original ones were destroyed in a tragic roll over. I'd be happy to pass them off to someone who would use them. They were off a 95 L400 high roof.
The only down side is I live in Edmonton... if you know people who ski tour that would adopt a splitboarder I could be convinced to wander down to that part of the world.

I picked up 4 of those for cheap (they were on sale) they work perfect and sure beats paying THULE or Yakima prices

Does those make any noise when driving on the highway if you don't have anything on the roof? Curious why did you go for 4 vs just 2, more stability?

evenly spaced out.
allows for different size items to be places.
it was either 2 spread 7-8 ft apart or 2 spread 3-4 ft apart.
for the price.. why not get 4.
Does it make noise. Yes and no, only at a certain hwy speed. one way to fix it is wrap a bungee cord around the front bar or put a pool noodle.
something to break up the wind.
every rack will make noise at some speed.

Cool man thanks! Think I will grab a couple pairs for my Deli. Been looking for a new rack after my basket got stolen!

Stolen?
What kind of dick would jack a roof basket? :)

Seriously right? It was in my back yard, and honestly the thing was starting to rust a bit and was heavy as hell. I don't know why anyone would take it.

I'm planning to get roof racks for my van also so that I can haul my canoe.

You put these on a high roof or low roof? What's the gap measurement between the rooftop and.bar bottom?
Thanks

It turns out there were a hot little item and I sold them to an awesome dude from Calgary last year.
