Thanks for this Adam. Just did my own order and basically copied you almost exactly, with a few minor changes here/there (see attached screenshots for parts list). I am going to use the 5/16" T bolts that came with the tie-down kit for the Elevate rails and drill the holes in the gussets that attach to rails to 5/16" (0.3125") from the .281" (9/32") they come bored with using my drill press. Wasn't happy with other T slot bolts I could find (both in price and most importantly in size). I'll update with pics when I get my extrusion and see how it goes (just placed order 11/2/23). Appreciate your pictures and thoughtful planning to make it easier for the rest of us. Goal is to have 2 kayaks and a large rooftop box on the wider crossbars. Also got some shortys that I can use for bed racks for solar panels (like you) or maybe bikes like the guy on the Jeep Gladiator forum did.
