Subject:      Thule Rack and Rocketbox
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="US-ASCII"


Hello everyone,
My wife and I are about to embark on a 3-month drive through Mexico,
therefore thought we might need a little extra storage. I bought a Thule rack
and rocketbox which will mount on the sides of the poptop via installed
gutters.
My question is this, does anyone have experience with approximately how much
weight one can put in the rocketbox and still keep the poptop in the UP
position without causing any damage or other adverse events to the poptop or
any other parts of the van or persons?
Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.


Thank you,
Doug Hornberger
