MTD's "The Hulk" Build - Narrated by Morgan Freeman

Dude why did you sell?

How many miles was it at ...

Your actions are quite puzzling because your thread has been so active lately. You've been pouring all this cash into it and you just sold.

What gives? Sorry to see you go.

Well last night was the maden voyage of the Autana on the ForeRunner and I have to say despite the bellow freezing temps we are hooked!!! We got to the campsite at 9:00 PM and got the tent and annex setup in under 15 min in the pitch black. I am really glad we bought the annex

I am really considering the Autana as well! Hey, did you reinforce the roof from the inside at all? I am putting mine on a whitson rack, but saw a post (I cant seem to find now) about pulling the headliner out and adding some lock-nuts, longer bolts and steel to the inside. Just curious if you have done any of that?
 
So my Thule roof rack that I have had my RTT attached to for the past couple of months has caused a terrible rattle in the roof of the 4runner. The front half of the roof is not supported because of the sunroof so this is what has been causing the rattle. there have been several post where people have stiffened the roof using flat bar from the inside, but I didn't want to pull my headliner and risk damaging it. I decide that I would take a different approach and build a flat rack that will more evenly distribute the load on the roof. I built this with basic materials that can be found at your local hardware store and used a harbor freight welder to assemble it. Now I have no more rattles that tent is secure and it sits lower on the roof. :ylsmoke:

Whoops! Nevermind^^^ haha

This is what it looked like on the top side before I welded it. Nice and flush, so that the tent sits even on the rack.

I really love the racks! I am curious what kind of tracks are on the roof, I have a 994r with the 2 black strips/tracks but they are not open or hollow for brackets like the ones on your 4runner? thanks for the insight

Yeah you don't have a factory rack then unfortunately... I had the same thing when I got my 2000 and had to find a rack for it. Just the rails are the important part to get, good luck!
