Hi Flo! Hope you had a good trip. I've got this setup and I can measure my bars tonight for you. I used the artificial raingutters as well. I also used 1.125" OD underground gas pipe for the crossbars instead of the wimpy Yaki bars. Gas pipe is twice as thick and the stuff I got years ago came with a nifty yellow plastic coating that is also twice as thick as the Yaki coating. Its also WAY cheaper than Yaki bars. I think I bought 20ft of the stuff foe about $25---albeit about 6 years ago. I'll be around this weekend if you want to pop over and check them out. P-mail me for my phone. I'll send the bar length tonight.

cheers, jeff On Jun 15, 2007, at 1:15 AM, Automatic digest processor wrote:
