    I’d love to help but I don’t think I could recommend this roof basket for standing on your roof. It’s not very strong.

     

    Your best bet will be making your own out of steel or aluminum tubing

     

    Maybe ask this guy for a guide? He custom built one and it looks super strong
     

     


    Thanks so much for getting back to me! I do have someone local fabricating the roof rack for me. However, I am still curious if you recall the brand name or part number to share my ideas. I seem to be finding more designs for the Xterra for some reason?

    Roof basket just went on. I also relocated the LED pods to the back so that they would work better, and I’m debating moving the main light bar so that it’s mounted to the rack itself rather than leaving it in front of the rack on the OEM crossbar. I’ll probably get to it eventually but it’s not a priority. First I need to finish hiding the LED pod wires properly and find a cleaner solution for mounting the tools.

    I also ordered some generic eBay traction boards and a set of the 9449 springs because the extra weight in the back has basically negated my lift at this point. Hopefully the extra stiffness will help. Once I have the cash, I’ll spring for some bilsteins to compete the rear

     


    HELLO! I really love this setup you have and I believe that I have the same vehicle. I am specifically extremely interested in your ROOF RACK system. I love the front light bars and rear back up lights as well. Could you please share more information about your custom rack build,  please?

    I am curious if it would hold my weight to shoot photos from the roof as shown in your photos? I'm about 250 pounds and it would be nice to fabricate something my sweetie and I could get on top to view wildlife and/or pitch a tent similar to the GOBI RACKS. Ideally a small passenger-side ladder would be fun, too.

    If you can you point me in the right direction to buy the basic Roof Rack and Light setup online you would be my hero!

    THANKS SO MUCH!
