@828findadventure How high do the Victory crossbars sit over the side rails? Or better yet, how high are they compared to the shark fin antenna?I am sure something could be fabricated to hold a bracket. BUT, the ends of the OE cross bars are plastic, and the rails are extruded aluminum. You could drill some holes and bolt them on but a better solution would be new cross bars like the ones from Victory 4x4.
I like how these crossbars mount and clamps right on the oem rails with the provided adhesive rubber grip linings. Thinking about going this route and create a full platform with 4-5 of these Victory crossbars.. their install instructions on all their products are top notch.I am sure something could be fabricated to hold a bracket.

Im thinking the same thing as well.
Yes, you can certainly fabricate parts and I've looked into it. I posted something about that, but no replies. Ultimately, I think I will put on the new slim sport 3 from Frontrunner and then no fab necessary.I am sure something could be fabricated to hold a bracket.

The crossbars sit just above or level with the shark fin. They clamp to the roof rails and can be positioned anywhere in that section, unlike the OE cross bars.
Awesome! Ive got 1.5" of garage clearance from the shark fin, so I was already very limited on racks outside of a few. And Id hate to have $1k+ in a rack plus install, just to find out I cant fit in the garage with it on.
Without putting a level on mine, I would say yes based on what I see on LFDs website with a similar product
This was my other option . I didn't like the fact that iit does not have the rubber grip protective lining within the clamps that attaches to the rails.Without putting a level on mine, I would say yes based on what I see on LFDs website with a similar product
Just to throw in some measurements. The shark fin sticks up a half inch above the side roof rails. The victory 4x4 cross bars stick up about an inch. I think pulling into your garage will be close, but I think it will clear.
