    First time I've seen welded unistrut. Looks fantastic.

    Nice job! I am wondering how did you made mounts for roof rack because those Discovery rails are curvey and unparallel...

    This is brilliant! I've been looking for a way to make a good rack for my Discovery 1, and I believe a modified version of this could work for me! Thank you for your ingenuity, and for sharing! Also, your video production quality is excellent!

    NICE WORK! I have a unistrut rack from home depot as well! I'll be incorporating that rounded corners style from you as well, it looks much nicer!

    How is the rack lasting? What level of abuse do you put it through?

    Looks fantastic! How is the road noise? Does it whistle a lot? Curious if all of the holes help or add noise.

      Thanks! Surprisingly low noise. Only noise is wind audible from the first 2 rails that are right above the sunroof. Remedied by stuffing a strip of pipe insulation that was ripped down the middle. Fitted it in gap of the front 2 bars 👍

    Hey, the mounting brackets that vertically come off the track to secure the unistrut... where did you find those?

    • @brandonpetrykowski

      Hey! I actually made them! Watch my other roof rack video and it shows a little how they’re made.

    Definitely looks good. What might be the best way to attach to roof rails, or perhaps cross bars?

    Great video, I have a LR3 as well. How did you attach the mounts to the car? I see you welded an L bracket but I do not have access to weld.

    • @brandonpetrykowski
      @brandonpetrykowski  Рік тому

      Hey Jose! Search Amazon or eBay for any generic LR3 roof rail mount. Anything that has a mounting point that you can bolt to will work fine 👍

    How many kilo or lbs the roof rack ??

  • @josearteaga8733
    @josearteaga8733 Рік тому

    I just did this roof rack but unfortunately the wind is so loud and it howls. How do you have this from not howling?

    • @brandonpetrykowski
      @brandonpetrykowski  Рік тому

      All racks make noise unfortunately. Hopefully you used the half size unistrut instead of the full size. Also, depending on where you have the rack placed on the roof. Farther back the better. You can also “pitch/tilt” the rack to be shorter in the front. Last is cutting pipe insulation wrap in strips and wedge them in the unistrut channels so wind won’t catch. hopefully some of this helps!
