The foam on the feet that mount to the gutter seem to be a little lacking. Have you noticed any issues with the foam degrading? Nice video though!

[@MikeWilley]

Not as of now so hopefully it continues to age well. Thanks for watching.

Great video. I am installing a 2 bar system on my 2021 JL. After you set your bar assembly onto the gutters, and positioned the lower clamp under the gutter, when you tightened the allen head bolt, did you have any difficulty getting the feet to set down into the gutter properly? On one side of the jeep, I get the bracket to set into the gutter(I don't go all the way down into the gutter). When I try the other side, the bracket will not set inside the gutter. It wants to ride on top. Thank you.

[@MikeWilley]

I had a little trouble with that on one bracket. Keep the nuts loose on the two bolts attaching the bracket to the bar. Almost completely loose. The bracket should slide into the gutter a little easier. Tighten down the bolt on the bracket and do then tighten the two bolts attaching the bracket to the bar. That should help.

Have you got around to installing your RTT using this? I plan to get the 4 bar system since I'm going with a 160lb tent and plan to have 3-4ppl in the tent. How confident are you with this product while driving/hitting trails? You think they'd hold up just as well as a rhino rack system?

Shes installed and getting tested out for the first time this week. Check out the installation video --> ua-cam.com/video/V0ehf0goRfA/v-deo.html
