Everything You Need to Know About Roof Rack Leg Sets
When preparing what to bring during your family trip, you need a checklist to ensure that you don’t forget to bring the essentials. With the right roof rack leg sets, you can easily load everything that you need for an unforgettable experience!
Why You Need Roof Rack Leg Sets
Roof rack leg sets are one of the most important accessories you can put on the roof of your truck or SUV. Together with the roof bars and fit kit, roof rack legs play a crucial role in maximising the space inside your car and letting everybody ride comfortably.
Since roof rack legs are a part of a complete set, they’re just as essential as every component. And in order to get full functionality, they must be compatible with the entire racking system. You can also expect the following:
Increased storage capability. With a reliable roof rack set at your disposal, your car becomes capable of carrying a kayak, surfboard, or some sizable equipment securely on its roof. Now you can easily fit in all your smaller gear inside!
Stress-free installation. Most roof rack leg sets include a kit that typically provides everything you need for installation. Although you have the option to get it done professionally, you can just as easily do everything yourself as the setup instructions are simple and straightforward.
More legroom. Though trips are usually fun once you arrive at your destination, very few find the actual drive exciting -- especially if your legs get stiff easily. With roof rack leg sets, you can safely store luggages and bigger bags on the roof while having all the legroom you need inside the car.
Better load management. Driving on rough roads is hard and can be made even harder by the heavy load on the SUV's roof. When you have solid roof rack leg sets installed, the weight inside and outside your vehicle is balanced properly so you ride safely even with challenging road conditions!
How to Know Which Roof Rack Leg Sets to Use
Each racking system offers its own unique roof rack leg sets. The mounting points on each vehicle varies depending on the type, brand, model, and other factors. While certain vehicles only have one available mounting option, others can be mounted in multiple ways.
Below are common types of roof rack leg sets along with their biggest benefits:
Clamp
Clamp roof rack leg sets are the most commonly-used installation type for bare roofs. This system is best suited for vehicles with no factory concessions on roof rack usage. This type of roof rack leg goes nicely with a clamp.
Biggest advantage: A major benefit of using this method for mounting your roof rack is its versatility. This type of roof rack leg is often seen in sedans, utes, and other common vehicle types.
Flush Rail
In this type of installation, the roof rack leg clamps onto the rail without actually touching the roof. In some varieties, a moulded rubber bushing is used for clamping while others utilise a pin-type system that may not be suitable for all vehicles. Depending on the brand, flush rail sets are either generic or vehicle-specific so you need to choose carefully.
Biggest advantage: Flush rail roof rack legs can, to some extent, move back and forth along your car. This allows for some accessories like bike racks and roof baskets to fit seamlessly while also having the highest load ratings.
Raised Rail
This type of roof rack leg setup applies to vehicles with an open or clear space between the roof and rail. It provides more freedom to fit racks and use multiple methods for mounting. And with a bar spread, you’ll have more options available.
Biggest advantage: Though some rail types limit the options for installing roof rack leg sets, they are generally the most versatile among all rack mounting methods. They are also a great choice if you don’t use spread bars very often and if you’re particular with aesthetics.
Fixed Point
Similar to the flush rail type, fixed point roof rack leg sets can usually be found on vehicles that don’t have rails. If your car roof already has rails, you’d need to remove them to accommodate this mounting type. The fixed point installation may also involve making minor modifications to your car to make the legs fit.
Biggest advantage: The adjustments you need to make to improve its functionality are fairly minor.
Gutter
It’s considered a classic installation method. Gutter roof rack legs are the ones you normally see on older vehicles such as the Land Cruiser 75 to 79 series, the Toyota HiAce, and the GU Patrol.
Biggest advantage: Although many consider it old-fashioned, gutter mount legs are very easy to install and perfect if you prefer taking an older SUV or truck to adventures.
Track
This type of roof rack setup is where a metal track running the length of your vehicle’s roof or canopy is permanently placed. Installation kits for track roof rack leg sets typically include two bars, and involves drilling and riveting.
Biggest advantage: One thing you can expect is it can accommodate any number of additional bars. With our professional and reliable track installation process, you can expert tracks that fit most roof rack system components available.
