Default Mounting brackets for windshield/rear

I seeking mounting brackets used for the following items:
Roof rack
Canoe rack
Light rack

Does anyone sell just the base mounts for both the front and rear ? I want to design and build my own rack but don't want to mess with taking the time to fit the body with home-made mounting brackets. Any ideas?

Thanks

if you want to build your own basket you could get the worrior front and rear light bars... then just build what you want to go between them.

dunno if that helps, but i'm not sure what kind of mounts you are looking for? is this for a hard top or soft top?

It will be for both, I've got the dual top setup. I've seen a few baskets for sale by some 4x4 companies but I'd like to make a custom design from the support poles up and just need some mounting plates pre-made.

My plan is to make a split rack that can be reduced by about half when I'm not needing all of it and also to have a few custom mounts on the rack for my wife's kayak. I'd also like to design a few flood lights on the front and rear of the rack also.

Found this photo but it doesn't show the mounts very good...looks like they might use the light bracket???

I'd like to get something that would attach to the four bolts shown in the below photo instead of the light bracket, I'd think it would be stronger.
