How does a T bolt help? I'm looking to setup my ARB awning on my cross bars and have only thought of drilling or using U Bolts to hold the mounting bracket.
Hey how far apart of the legs to attach to your roof rack? Just curious if there was any info(that you recall) for how lost it could be ? I'm going to order one but I know on my car, my roof rack rails are maybe 2'-2.5' wide. so I'm wondering if that would be wide enough for this model
i know this comment is old as dust. but i wanted to say the same thing. just undo the cross bar and fit the bolt in between the channels trim the bolts if they are too long.
Does it not affect the structural integrity of the bars to drill them? These things come with weight limits. Can you still use those numbers as reference after drilling them?
Hi there, if you were worried about the structural integrity of the bars you can get tbolts to slide into the crossbars instead of drilling :) Cheers, Courtney
Hi Andrew, Unfortunately, Adventure Kings products are not available outside of NZ and Australia. Hopefully this is a development we can make in coming yeards. Talia
Very grateful for the t bolt suggestion. No drilling. I used m8s. Secured without issue.

@@hansoffate hi! I know your post is 2 years old but did you find a way to attach them to your cross bars?
I think he meant U bolt
What Anthony said, don't drill! Use a T-Bolt.
or get a decent awning.
@@kmariechapman8282 I think you mean get a decent roof rack.
Or the slotted track in the crossbar?

Hi, where can I get these mounting brackets from? Cheers
Has anyone mounted their awning to Kings flat racks? I have the foxing 270 awning and I'm trying to work out what I need to mount it
Awesome!! 👍
Bunnings has a mushroom head M6 x 12mm bolt that works perfectly for $4
What's the point having T.slot why do you drill?

How can i install this on a Land Rover 2004 Discovery?

Hi. Do you know the size of the u bolts? I’m trying to look for them everywhere but no one seems to have it. Thanks.
Where did u get it?
Hello there! Usually at Bunnings, and they will differ in size depending on what size your existing racks are. Regards, Isabelle
@@AdventureKings hey. I went to Bunnings but they don’t have that short, they only have the very long ones.

I have round bars...hmmm.
Has anyone any idea where to buy U-bolt for Thule cross bar? Thank you
Hi Kris
U-bolts can be purchased from any local hardware store! Cheers Isabelle
How does the the bar not slide around under the u bolts?
What about connecting the bolts using the crossbar Slotted track? Is it strong enough?
Hi there,
This would be fine!
Cheers, Courtney
@@AdventureKings It would be great if there was more video on options to Connect to a roof rack. Quick release options?
What is the required loading rating of the CrossBars? I have found a set for my KIA van that is rated 90Kg Loading.@@AdventureKings

I couldn't find this u bolts even I Bunnings. Does anyone know where to buy ?
bunnings got U Bolts mate, just make sure its the correct width and length before you buy. It should be there in the nut & bolt section.
I used a toyota hilux my dad's save me
Dodgiest shit i have seen in a while... Why drill?
That first method is terrible 🙈 Second I’d better but T-Bolt is the best way.
@Mak H the awning’s L bracket can slide out of the clamp
