HaulMaster Roof Mounted Cargo Rack/Carrier/Basket 6 MTH REVIEW Harbor Freight Gear That Doesn't SUCK

Here is my Harbor Freight Gear That Doesn't SUCK HaulMaster Roof Mounted Cargo Rack/Carrier/Basket 6 MTH REVIEW. This rack has been on my 2008 4Runner for 6 months now and it is time to see what condition it is in. Other than the paint fading and some small rust spots that I can repair, I think it is in relatively good condition. Remember, not everything that you get at Harbor Freight is junk...

    Great video, I did an 8 month review of ours but we live in the PNW and park in the garage when we are home so no rust or fading for us thankfully! Thanks for uploading.

    Thank you for saving me several hundred dollars. Your first video, then this one -- SOLD. I can get a gross of cans of Rustoleum for the price difference, LOL.

    Thanks! You should be fine in AZ as you don't have the humidity we have in FL

    Thanks for the video. Picked on up. Have you found a cargo net to fit it yet? I've had no luck. Painting mine with truck bed liner spray to see if I can ward off some of the light rusting you are seeing. Again, thanks for the video.

    I have a bed cap on my truck but no roof rack on it. Could this bolt directly to the roof without having a rack if you left the bottom of those brackets off and used bolts to secure it? Weird question, but I can't tell too well from the videos if it'd have enough clearance to mount like that lol

    Yes you could do it that way and it looks like it would work fairly well. You would still have about an inch of clearance between the bottom of the rack and your topper...

    i wonder if painting it with truck liner before installation will help protect it? im thinking of picking up one for my rav4

    do you keep your car in the garage at night and do you live in close to the ocean ? that could accelerate the rusting process

    whole thing is already rusted..... theres something you can buy that you brush on and neutralizes the rust and i believe is a paint in one. i forget what its called but you should be able to get it from home depot.

    Yeah, Rustoleum has a new spray paint and brush on rubberized paint that converts rust and seals the metal from rusting further. Walmart sells it in the automotive section. People are raving about in reviews I've seen so it might be some good stuff for this application.

    Just spray it with Rustoleum Rubberized Rust converter and sealant when you get it and reapply every couple of years and it should last a long time.
