So I just put the roof rack on my jk and I wanna mount some tools ( shovel, axe) does anybody know what to use and will work?

 

Depends how much you want to spend and how handy you are. There are several off the shelf mounts you can purchase or you could fab something up yourself with some cheap electrical conduit clamps.

w ww.endroad.com is a popular choice as well.

 

I was thinking about those I just was wondering of there were any locking mounts

 

I've used "U" bolts to attach a lot of things that and basic clamps work. Spend a little time in your hardware store and you can pretty much fab anything up to work.

 

Awesome that's what I was thinking

 

I spend a lot of time in Lowe's, ACE and other hardware stores hunting for mod parts. It always makes me laugh when one of the employees asks me if they can help me find something.....

 

Haha, I agree to that! They always seem to think that just because were looking around, that we have no idea what were doing. XD

 

It's like they get offended when u r there longer then two minutes

 

I always tend to "mess with them".... Like I'll be standing in front of a bunch of tarps & plastic sheeting when they ask "can I help you?" and I'm like "do you have any tarps?"

The mixed reactions are priceless. They don't know if I'm being serious or fuckin with them... but if they lose their cool, they know the manager is gonna erupt.

 

Haha that's awesome! I like when ask for something and you can tell when the person is new or clueless there like "there I no such thing" then I go find it and there reaction is just complete shock.
