Standard; didn't want it in front of the sunroof.

Not sure yet about noise, still evaluating. Weight capacity is 130 lbs., per the stock rails.

I do have the Yakima LoadWarrior and looked at this bracket, but on the Yakima the tube running parallel to the factory rack are way more inside than the Rola which may require a lot more work to make it happen. Someone local to me suggested he could make some similar brackets but never followed that.

@ b407driver
do you know if that rack will fit inside of the factory rails. If so I might build some custom brackets so that the basket can be mounted as low as possible.
Your setup looks clean, thanks for posting.

The picture above is of it mounted inside the factory rails, so not sure what you're looking for. You might be able to get it a bit lower with something custom, but not sure it would be any different than 'hanging' the rack from the bottom of the 'flipped' bracket. Despite some peoples' fears to the contrary, I'm not sure it would be any less secure, and I may try it for the 'fun' of it.

I stupid questions, but does the basket come with its own mounts and will it fit with the stock rail or you have to order a different mount else where. If you order different mount where can I get the mount where you use .

The mounts that come with it are for factory (or other) crossbars. The link to the low-profile mount is in the original post, above.

@ b407driver
:
I have the Rola Vortex with extension since I have a '16TE not premium. I also want to lower the cargo basket to see if I can get into the garage. I'm wondering if you can help me with something. 4xInnovations.com also has brackets, but only tested on the 4th Gen. I'm wondering if you think these will fit on the 5th Gen since you've already gone through the install. The vendor is willing to let me test fit his brackets and if they don't fit, will let me return to him. I wanted you to check it out because I am not handy at all, so I figured you'd have more insight. For reference, although my basket has the extension, the shark fin is also inside my last bar on the rack. Here's a link to his brackets:
03-09 4RNR Rola Rack Mount Kit
And here's a pic of my truck with rack on it currently. Let me know your thoughts.

Those are the exact brackets that I used (they are linked above in the original post), and are shown in the pictures in this thread. Am I missing something about your question?

Mannn, nope you're not missing anything. It's me, reading forums on my phone at work and for some reason thinking you bought brackets from elsewhere. So there's my answer, they work, they're just sturdy as mounting on the crossbars, but just flip them over backwards, right? Man, I'm nuts...is it Friday yet???

Right. Hope you're better with tools than forums. ;)

What did you use for spacers? Any up-close pics to share?
