Hi Kenny, thank you very much for doing this video!! It's excellent. Just some feedback, our initial installation video was done in 2016. Aside from being our early days, the roof rack has had several upgrades since then. The reason for needing to use the 2 inner slots is that the rack is now 100mm wider. It was 1050mm wide. We found 1150mm is a better fit. Also, the height of the brackets have been reduced to lower the profile, so the installation method you've shown is the way to go with the lower profile set up. Sorry about the mix up with the incorrect bracket. Also, we're stoked that you're happy with the OCAM roof rack. Your feedback encourages us to continue working hard on making quality 4x4 accessories more affordable!! Thanks again.
Great vid mate! I was stuck trying to figure out what I wanted for my prado 150. Don't feel like spending a crap load on a alloy pioneer rack and didn't want a steel one either so this is a good middle ground.
Good job of it. Just about to fit one to my MUX so I hope it goes well. Just one warning. I fitted backbone rails to my 120 and found that the mounting nuts in the roof were loose. Dropped the first one into the roof lining and had a big job getting it out. Used wire to hold the rest of them. Take care.
@@Kenny_B finally installed it lucky I did the way you did it , started raining so i will straighten it properly on a sunny day , but got it on there after a few beers lol
hey mate, have you had any issues with the rack since you've had it for a few years now? Any rust forming on the fixings/brackets? How's the paint holding up?
Hey mate, nah still no issues with the rack at all. The bolts are made of steel so i've seen some really minor orange stain in the area from rainwater sitting on the bolts. Only cosmetic. The rest of the rack is all aluminium so no rust issues at all.
@@Kenny_B awesome, thanks for getting back to me man. Trying to decide if I should buy one or not. Had a kings steel rack that faded and rusted. Just fixed up the roof damage and want something better 👍🏻
Hey mate, it’s not very noisy. Just a slight wind noise . Doesn’t howl or anything like that. I also have 2 solar panels mounted on mine now and it’s still not too bad. About as good as 99% of racks I’d say 👍🏼
Hey mate, nah, definitely no obvious or excessive noise. I’ve got mud terrain tyres which aren’t very noisy but neither the tyres or the rack make any noise that catches my attention
Yep planning that at the moment, I’ve since fitted solar panels to the roof rack. I’ve got a few other mods to do and also looking at raptor painting the whole car so I’ll be doing another video in the next week or two 👍🏼
Hey mate, yeah it’s still holding up fine. No issues at all. I just pressure wash in the gap but I’m not overly worried about my paint anymore. It’s purely a 4WD these days. The clear coat on my bonnet died and I just raptor lined it black 👍🏼
Still no issues mate. If you watch my playlist doing Cape York this year you can see all the gear i had on it. It has a 270 awning on the side, two 110w solar panels and maxtrax. Plus we carried both swags up there each day on the trip. A Rhinorack or Pioneer platform obviously has better bolt on brackets and things but it's 3x the price of this one.
Hey mate, i just had a look at the Ironman one online and it looks nearly identical. The OCAM version is only &50. I still haven't had any issues with my one.

Thanks mate. Yeah that was the same scenario I had.

Thanks Greg. I’ll check mine again after the next trip 👍🏼
How did it go on the mux? Im about to purchase one for my mux too.
You just saved me some dollars brother, I'll be using your link Thank You ! Subscribed Bud !
Happy to help mate 👍🏼 I’ve got the solar panels mounted up on it now and looking at a new awning.
Thanks for sharing the video! Even i’m not in favour of spending so much just for roofrack!! Will be going with same !
Awesome stuff bro , going to install mine soon , legend
I've had mine for almost 2 years now with no issues. Enjoy!

Awesome video mate 👍🏽
Thanks mate.
yep same thing happened to me 5 brackets with 2 holes and 1 with 3 haha
hey bro, i want ask. what name cover you plug on your roof rack? before you install some stuff
Top vid mate
Thanks mate
Hey mate - great videos! Glad to have found your channel. :) What did you use to attach your maxtrax to the rack?
Thanks mate. They are just held on with a strap. One of those webbing sort of ones with the cam lock type thing that bites into it
Hey buddy, great video. Whats the wind noise like the ocam when you driving high speed? Cheers
Pretty standard mate. Like you know you’ve got a roof rack on but it’s hardly noisey. I have two solar panels on there now as well and it’s still ok.
Hi mate, looking at grabbing one of these, what is the noise like when driving on the highway / any high soles?
Hey mate, it’s not very noisy. Just a slight wind noise . Doesn’t howl or anything like that. I also have 2 solar panels mounted on mine now and it’s still not too bad. About as good as 99% of racks I’d say 👍🏼
@@Kenny_B thanks for the info!
Hi mate, just wondering if the rack makes obvious wind noise?
Hey mate, nah, definitely no obvious or excessive noise. I’ve got mud terrain tyres which aren’t very noisy but neither the tyres or the rack make any noise that catches my attention
a quick followup vid letting us know how its gone over the last 3 months...?
Yep planning that at the moment, I’ve since fitted solar panels to the roof rack. I’ve got a few other mods to do and also looking at raptor painting the whole car so I’ll be doing another video in the next week or two 👍🏼
How many washers did you have left over?
How has it held up? And how do you wash your roof?
Hey mate, yeah it’s still holding up fine. No issues at all. I just pressure wash in the gap but I’m not overly worried about my paint anymore. It’s purely a 4WD these days. The clear coat on my bonnet died and I just raptor lined it black 👍🏼
Salut, tu es content de ta galerie de toit ?
Only 599 its like it was made for me 🤣🤣
Over a year of having it. How is it holding up
Still no issues mate. If you watch my playlist doing Cape York this year you can see all the gear i had on it. It has a 270 awning on the side, two 110w solar panels and maxtrax. Plus we carried both swags up there each day on the trip. A Rhinorack or Pioneer platform obviously has better bolt on brackets and things but it's 3x the price of this one.
Anyone know if this is the same one sold by Ironman?
Hey mate, i just had a look at the Ironman one online and it looks nearly identical. The OCAM version is only &50. I still haven't had any issues with my one.
Long term review?
How much the price
Hi Mae, it was $599 and $83 postage but that’s all the way up to North Queensland.
