Re: Fortuner Roofrack & Awning
I got the idae form looking at one of my friend's awning.
The idea was good but they made it unnesaserily complicated and with to many joints and parts. I am a firm believer that the viewer parts there is the better. (Less to go wrong with)
I agree in using aluminium for this.
Look at teh weight difforance between the two.
