No use for the crossmembers, other than large paperweights. Did you check out the Thule racks? They work great on the X and clip on and off easier than the Yakimas, IMHO.
AJ's Dad-I would love to have your crossbars. One of mine is messed up. I put them on when I need them and take them off when I do not need them so the paint does not get scratched. Email and I will give you the address. I will pay the shipping.
Thanks,

AJ'sDAD I use mine to beat the haydes out of the little copperheads and I did have a coral snake once, that come up out of the woods around here. Now they do a fine job on them and last a lot longer than a stick [img]images/icons/laugh.gif[/img] .

If any one else wants crossmembers please let me know. Two more pieces of junk floating around the garage-barn I could do without. Usually, I am ruthless in throwing things out but I have just not had the heart to throw out my wife's X's crossbars. She is a packrat bar none so you can imagine the cat fights. Anyone interested, let me know.
i don't know if it will help or not, but i got ford to buy me some yakima crossbars. i told them about the scratches and they screwed around for about 4 months, but i finally got them.
you bought a *new* truck. paid a lot of money. it is supposed to have a functional roof rack. it sounds like a warranty issue to me.
what they ended up doing was taking pictures of the scratches and sending them to engineering or somewhere.
they are gonna repaint my roof and some other scratches that were on it when i got it as soon as i can do without it for 3 days.
my $.02 and overpriced at that.
bill
added on edit: i also have a set of the stock ones if somebody wants them. email me.

I've got a H&R .410 that does that job quite nicely. [img]images/icons/laugh.gif[/img]

Do I every agree on the shooting them, but I was not joking. I keep one of the bigger ones in the garage and the other by the front door for varmints. If I am outside andrunn across one they are handy.
Now if it is big enough, what I use is my 357 mag. with the CCI pellet shot. I must admit the .410 is supurb every time. [img]images/icons/laugh.gif[/img]
Mind If I ask you a question, Do you know of any comapany that is making a .410 semi - auto? I have looked and asked all over my area. I know years ago they were made.
Thanks and you take care.

I have the Thule racks on my X. They were less expensive but still real good racks. I bought an adventurer box also.
