basket.
If anyone is interested in doing this, I do not recommend using the OEM factory rails, they are not strong enough for the capacity of the Loadwarrior.
I was able to install the Q-towers around the outer edges of the OEM factory rails, and used 58" bars across the towers.
Do not recommend 48" bars for the 91-97 Rodeo's which is what some places recommend, they are just barely wide enough, but do not give you area for loading more gear.
Not too bad a deal, $450 for all, and can carry up to 165# - so it says, but I've had the factory OEM supposed only 75# capacity rack carrying 300# at one time or another. So I know this Yakima rack can carry much more.
