    Clamps hold tight
    Took me like 2 hrs to install. I had to adjust it but once I got it sitting right it's great. Carries my 24ft ladder and PVC, I haven't noticed any bouncing or rattling. Feels way sturdier than the last one I had. Just be ready to take your time putting it on. Love the clamps, easy to use.

    Worth It
    I used to have a regular ladder rack with straps and it was such a pain. This rack is way better, I can throw my ladders up and lock them down in seconds. It feels solidly built and looks clean on my Chevy Express too. Happy with it.

    Seems To Be Good Quality
    I have not installed them yet. But they came as ordered except the instructions were to a different model number. Which is no biggie since you can get online and print off the correct ones. I assume they should be fairly easy to install with the pictures and all in the instuctions. Weather Guard is on the higher side of van equipment for pricing, I probably would have went with another brand but I already had 2 racks on when I purchased this promaster city. I will update with pictures after they are installed.

    Good Product
    Very good product but it would have been nice if the company sent both stands and not just one. Took almost a week and a half for them to send me another one.

    Works
    Received these pretty quickly and assembly was a snap, once you redrilled the brackets to the roof to align with the factory threaded holes in the roof. Along with some sealant (supplied) to fill holes already drilled and seal your newly drilled holes to prevent corrosion. Hardware was all there and all in Stainless except the M6 bolts needed to bolt it into the factory provided roof holes that were existing, needed to purchase those separately. Strong system though at the time have not tried them yet, look good and feel good that they are all aluminum construction.
