I'm a little concerned because the truck sits outside everyday - no garage.
I can't change your mind for you. But I can say that I've had mine installed just about 2.5 years and I park outside in the driveway - all without issue so far.

I like it. That's the look and the stance I want for my rig.

Did this and mine leaked pretty bad. Went back and applied some GE window silicone. Worked like a champ. Love it.

1. Do you still have the parts for sale?
2. I actually want to put a canoe rack on my car and the stock rack is too short. Does anyone have any ideas? I thought maybe some kind of Yakima/Thule or other rack with 78 inch cross bars spread as far apart as possible.

Neither Yakima nor Thule makes anything that will clamp on to the 4 Runner so that you can spread your cross bars apart to carry a longer canoe/kayak properly. Their racks will only clamp onto your stock rack rails, with about 3 feet of cross bar spread. For this very reason, I put a Gobi rack on my 4 Runner. Gives me 6 feet of space between bars. Expensive solution, but I paddle nearly every day and take my boats on the highway in the winter.

got my parts ordered today.

They wanted +$90 for all the parts. thanks goodness an old buddy i know from the old car club walked in and worked there.

Got the price down to $63 which is the amount of credit I had left over with the parts department.
