I'm not in the rack manufactoring business or rack sales.
I'm only a Mirage Rack owner
The Mirage Rack can be ordered from The Rack Warehouse
Starting the 3rd summer (summer 2002) with my Mirage Rack, the sun has fadded the once black tubes to a light bronze color. Plastic parts are good as new.
I've been up to Highway speeds with 2 kayaks attached. Weight of the 2 kayaks is close to 100 lbs.
Installation was simple, only had to drill 6 holes into the sides of the bed (3 on each side) to attach the rails.


The plastic connectors

One of the four Corner braces

One of the upper corner pieces with the end tube inserted

Dissassembled rack in storage bag. Note holes in tubes for various rack lenghts & widths

One of the three bolts holding the rail in place

Another added feature of the bed rails is that they protect the upper truck bed from scratches & dings from items inside bed of truck.

Looking back at the rack & kayaks at 60 MPH.
Notice the tennis balls on the top corners?
I cut a small hole in the balls & slid them over the top corner piece.
