    Mounting Big red Highlift on stock roof rails?

    Factory Roof Rack, Please Help

    If your going to put large items up there, sheet of ply etc. I'd recommend aftermarket, something that will bring your load above the small antenna on the back. With the factory cross rails it won't last long.
