Installed the
@Sherpa Equipment Co. rack this afternoon by myself in 2-3 hours. Nothing spectacular to report. I followed the directions and all was well. The quality of the side bars was great, the finish was very good, the cross bars appear to be standard extrusions, and they were finished nicely as well. Mounting hardware was perfect and fit great. I appreciate that no adhesive/caulk is needed for this rack and no holes to drill for the front standoffs.
Two observations: First, the forward mounting arrangement is different from the method called out in the installation instructions. No big deal. Anyone can see what changed and account for it.
Second, the two forward crossbar slots are some amount shorter than the aft ones. Getting the screws into the slots is a bit challenging, but not impossible.
Otherwise it’s solid and ready for lumberyard duties.
