 Fits and looks great! Dec 15, 2009
I love this thing! I bought it for my cross country road trip and it has been great. I put two huge footlockers on top of it with two ratchet straps and it stayed put the whole way. The only gripe I have is that the hardware, the bolts, weren't long enough! (I have a 2005 Nissan Xterra). I ended up having to go to home depot and buying longer ones and having my husband custom make them at work. All in all it's easy to put together which gave me doubts but so far it has lasted from the salty airs of CA all the way through rain and snow blizzards!

 Great Versitile Rack Jun 09, 2009
I purchased this rack from Amazon and it arrived quickly. I first mounted it to the tower on my boat to hold camping gear for a river cruise that we did. It worked great for that. I then purchased the extention and mounted the rack onto my suburban for a Yellowstone camping trip. It worked very well. Assembly was very easy, all of the holes lined up and I had no problems. It is very stout, but not too heavy. I am very happy with my roof rack.

Rack and 22 inch extension- rugged, looks good, but... Sep 04, 2008
... it didn't marry easily with it's two ends. Something got lost in the template for it's counterparts resulting in misaligned connecting tubes by 3/8's of an inch. An avoidable, manufacturing quality control issue.
Now, fighting the sturdy and rigid construction of this rack is no easy task. And maybe I was unlucky in this particular item. But I ended up having to use metal files to expand the feeding taper on the "male" end, create a taper on the inside of the "female" end, then soap both surfaces, use a wooden carpenters clamp w/shim for the male side to compensate for uneven pressure, squeeze just till the pipe started to crush then whack the end of the rack with a heavy, soft rubber mallet, then touchup with rustproof flat black and presto! ... an hour later. Also, the air deflector is sub-par-flimsy. Don't over tighten or it may crack, or use it as a template to custom make one from aluminum plate.
Considering the relative higher cost of comparably designed racks, and the undeniable ruggedness of this one, I would have spent at least another $150 or more for a final 66" X 39" dimension. I guess it was worth the hour spent making it work.
5 stars for the rack itself, (less one for the unexpected workout)

Sport Basket on a Jeep Compass Aug 16, 2008
The Compass has non-adjustable Sport Bars that necessitated making a 4 1/2" extension between the 2 halves to fit properly. If you have adjustable Sport Bars that this Basket is intended to be used on you'll have no problems. I do like the way that the brackets are curved which makes for a better fit when compared to some other baskets. Good product and did the job well!
