so i loaded my rack for the fist time today and it worked great had two loaded coolers and two pop up tents on it held everything with room to spare.aswell i put about 100 miles on with those new injectors and all went well. cant tell about gas mileage with a rack loaded with full coolers,3 passengers and a cargo area full of crap. but seemed to average 21-22mpg on the hwy,going by the stock digital readout.and i was at 20-21mpg with empty rack,no passengers,and empty cargo area,so i gonna say its way better.

got them from the for sale section from a member (Programbo) for 60$ shipped,this was a good deal for me as the jy around here wants the same $ and i would have to pull,clean and test them.
