How do you have that mounted to the roof ???? Looks like pop rivits or sheet metal screws.... I would suggest adding two more one on each side....With a heavy load on top & if you need to do a panic stop

yea just sheet metal screws, and well the only thing i would be afraid of would be my roof giving out before any of the screws metal binding lol cause with 300lbs of coolers up there i had to do i couple of panic stops on the road.

i used 1x1, and pretty much impossible to bolt down, cause when i pulled down my headliner there is a piece of metal then a gap then the roof metal.
