You’ve got $500 what are you buying?

Hospital and ambulance took all of mine and a bunch more. No parts for me.

You alright, SP?

Aside from that - A half rack for the roof. I bought some cheapo cross rails that I can use for mounting my kayak, and I thought Id be happy with them, but I really just need to bite the bullet and pick up one of the half racks and install it. I still want the option of being able to easily remove the front freedom panels, but the versatility of having a proper rack utilizing that space instead of the wimpy cross rails is really calling me.

How wide are these? I couldn't find dimensions on their website

About 4" if you can get them mounted. Lots of quality control issues which I would guess is why they are liquidating them cheaply.

Yeah, much better since the surgery.
The 2 ER visits, ambulance, etc. will be killer on the bank accounts.
For me - nothing that time and taking it easy won't take care of.

Luckily, we had Tuvak's treatment expenses covered before all this.

No parts or tools purchases for a while. No working on any cars for a while. But this, too, I'll deal with.
Good thing I didn't trade when I was looking - no way in the world I'd be swapping parts out for a while now!
So sometimes things work for the best. Regroup and move forward! I can still dream. (just not so much about greasy pizza, grease dripping bacon burgers, and a plate of sugar cookies)

Let me guess - coupon for engine, transmission, power steering pump......

Too bad you didn’t win the power ball on that one. ?

About 4" at the wide point, stick out just over 2" and are about 5 3/4" below the sill.
Will add pictures in a few.

Here you go.

I didn't really have any issues with the install. Took my time and fiddled with the mounts and shims.
I installed the first side with the mounts barely snug where I could tap them to adjust them.
I have a full set of 1/4" sockets and stubby ratchet wrenches that came in handy. I could tighten every thing in place.
Then I set the brackets for the second side the same as the first and installed it.
Having a second set of hands really helped to get them in place.

I like them, but they aren't the greatest for a real step. For me they could be further down from the sill.
But for the price I paid, I'm happy.
