The Tough Touring Gutter mount roof rack is secured by 4 Gutter mounts each side as per Pics above - Running off a 1 piece gutter rail that extends the length of the GQ's roof. The One Piece Roof rail takes away point load issues present in the design of the GU Gutters - Our One Peice design is well suited to spreading the load evenly, to allow securing loads stronger and lower than is possible with single bar type racks.
The Top edge of the rail is OUTFOLDED for easy installation and removal of Tents and Awnings.
Refinements have led to an overall One piece foot rail height of 10 -20 mm from the vehicles roof skin when Fitted.
