great buy, easy to install.

We had to purchase for our extra storage space on top of our vehicle. Easy to install, heavy duty material.

Well, #1, east to intsall, I had the star bit to take out the temporary screws (cant take them out with the wrench in the package. #2 After reading other reviews I invested in a $3 set of hex head bits for my drill, took 5 minutes to installthe bars. #3 Shame on you guys, the hex head wrench did not fit the adjustment screws, luckly I had a hex head set and found the right size. #4 Listen to this purchasers.... for the back one loosen the adj screws, pull it out and screw in the 4 screws into the bar, THEN take a piece of tape, wrap it around the bar then take off bar, tighten adjustment screws, then reinstall. A. wrong hex heads on adjustment B. Cant tighten adjustment screws after install or you will scratch top of your explorer..C. Get a hex head set for a drill or screws diver and save yourself 1/2 hour and lots of swear words. All and all, its better than buying the same OEM Ford product for $200+ .

Ordered this set of cross bars for an XCargo 20 (one of, if not the largest cargo carrier around). I was a bit concerned about the "100lb" limit, given that the box itself probably already weighed in at 20. We packed it full, took it on a 22hr drive across country and had zero issues with these bars. They never gave any sign of being overloaded (I didn't measure, but it had to have been close), and at speeds of 75+mph. They adjusted well, and took about 15mins to install (the factory allen wrench means you can only get a 1/4 turn or so at a time, so it takes a while. Grab a cordless drill and you can have these on in 5 mins). I did have a problem in that one of the screws came with either a bit broken off in it, or something left from a rock washer that they run them through. It was wedged in there and meant that I was unable to tighten. I informed the seller, and without even seeing a picture (see attached), they shipped a replacement out next day. Can't ask for better service than that!

I bought these crossbars to install a cargo carrier that I bought weeks ago. All of the pictures with this product show the rear cross bar in the middle position, but when I tried to install the rear cross bar it would only fit in the back most position. After taking them down and getting ready to return them I saw that the rear cross bar is adjustable. After adjusting the bracket outward it fit the middle position perfectly. When I went back to the instructions I saw a footnote mentioning the need to tighten the underside of the bracket (where this adjustment is made).Overall, I'm very happy with this product now that I got it to fit the position I need it.

Zipper broke with first use. We still used it with the other zipper but could no longer lock it. Couldn’t return because I bought it three weeks before vacation and then had no choice to use it. I had one month to buy and return it.

Order arrived quickly. Cross bars were easy to install and fit perfectly. So far so good. Waiting for ski attachments.
