Default Fabricating gutter mounts

Ok, just as the title says, I'm going to ask a question that has been asked a hundred times... I still haven't found any plans, or good ideas in the past... Here goes. I am looking to fab a safari rack with GUTTER MOUNTS! The rack is already going to cost a small fortune in materials and man hours, so I'm not really nuts about buying the mounts, I'd rather fab them up. I am asking you guys for a little advice, pictures, or ideas on how to best fabricate the mounts. Heck, give me ideas on the rack too!

Is it bad that I'm disappointed about this thread not actually being about you beating a dead horse?










Just kidding

Thumbs up

Looks friggin good, man... pretty straight-forward . Do you remember the linear footage? I saw the mounts, is that what you used? I was just a bit confused when I saw your rack sitting flush on top.

The mounts aren't welded on yet. It was about 70" or so long and about 48" wide.
