Expedition One Roof Rack black Friday Deal, any thoughts?

[IslandJim]

There was a thread started in general discussions asking about this roof rack but it wasn't getting any traction and believe there is more traffic here and wanted to post about what looks like a great deal for $800.

Didn't get a reply as far as the suggested load rating but it looks pretty sturdy and should be similar to other racks. Main concern is will I be able to use this with a RTT?

Here are some screen grabs.

Its 20% off right now and free shipping, comes with or without the light bar cutout. Any other thoughts? Thanks Jim

Damn for the $$ that is pretty slick. Wha is the shipping time?

Thought they said 4 - 6 weeks. Should point out it's an aluminum rack too.
edit; also it's most likely to require drilling. The installation instructions aren't available on their website as it is for other items like sliders and bumpers. Apparently Expedition One has been a manufacturer of mostly "Jeep" items for a long time but I won't hold that against them.

I believe Chivas is running one of those with a rrt last time I saw his rig.

I talked to them this morning and driving load max is 300. With RTT it should be fine with ~800

What happened to the search function on this site? Tried looking up member "chivas" and it just displays "loading" forever.

Looking at this rack now and just thought this might not work with the Gobi ladder and that might be a deal killer.

Expedition One has their own style ladder built as an option to their bumper.

Time for some leftovers, have a great weekend everyone.
