You are typically left choosing between heavy, permanently welded custom steel racks that destroy your fuel efficiency and rust at the coast, or rigid universal baskets that force your solar panels, roof vents, and air conditioners into highly awkward, pre-determined layouts. At \u003cb data-path-to-node=\"1\" data-index-in-node=\"477\"\u003eWEST COAST VANS\u003c\/b\u003e, we know that maximizing the utility of your extended footprint requires total layout freedom and industrial-grade strength. Enter the Unaka Gear Co.

Featuring a highly adjustable, lightweight structural framework, this system lets you slide and lock your crossbars precisely where your layout demands it, giving you the perfect baseline to build out an off-grid overland powerhouse.

Pro Tip: Because this Standard Roof Rack kit features fully adjustable crossbars, don't tighten down your structural side hardware until you have dry-fitted your large roof appliances. Map out your MaxxFan openings, skylights, and rooftop air conditioners first, then slide the Unaka crossbars into position directly flanking those components to serve as rigid, localized structural guards. If you plan on adding solar later, remember that flush-mount solar panel brackets are not included in this Standard configuration; however, you can easily purchase Unaka flush brackets separately or upgrade to our Premium Rack configuration to drop your arrays perfectly level with the side rails!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"3\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"3\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003ePRODUCT OVERVIEW\u003c\/b\u003e The Unaka Gear Co.

Unaka Gear Co. engineered this modular rack system to anchor directly onto the factory metal roof pins that are already present on your ProMaster's roof skin. This preserves your factory paint and guarantees a 100% leak-free installation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"32\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"32\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eQ: Does this Standard Roof Rack kit come with the flush-mount brackets for solar panels?\u003c\/b\u003e A: No. The flush-mount solar panel brackets are excluded from this Standard kit configuration. If you want to drop your solar arrays completely flush with the top edge of the side rails, you can purchase Unaka's flush-mount brackets separately on our store, or check out our Premium Roof Rack kit option.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"33\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"33\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eQ: Will this rack fit a standard 159\" wheelbase ProMaster van if it isn't the Extended version?\u003c\/b\u003e A: No, it will not. The side rails of this specific kit are precision-cut and spaced specifically to span the full length of the 159\" Extended (EXT) High Roof body profile. For standard 136\" or regular 159\" non-extended wheelbases, please select the corresponding shorter model size from our collection menu.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"34\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"34\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eQ: Can I adjust the distance between the crossbars after the rack is fully installed on the van?\u003c\/b\u003e A: Yes, absolutely. The beauty of this modular system is its long-term versatility. If you decide to add a new roof fan, air conditioner, or a different size solar array down the road, you simply loosen the crossbar hardware, slide the bars along the side track channels to their new location, and torque them back down.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"35\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"35\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eWHY TRUST WEST COAST VANS?\u003c\/b\u003e Every product we sell is vetted by our team of builders in our San Clemente shop.
