Hello everybody, this is Jeff at etrailer.com. Today we're gonna take a look at the Flint Hill Goods Two-Bar Steel Ladder Rack for vans. Has a 500 pound weight capacity. Now this van rack will let you carry ladders, lumber, and many more items with ease. They do use telescoping crossbars. You can see they can be adjusted in or out to fit the width of your vehicle.
The crossbar adjustable length will go from a minimum of 56 inches, all the way up to a maximum of 77 inches. And the diameter on these steel tubes is two inches. It is a steel construction, very strong and durable. It does use a corrosion resistant powder coat finish on the parts to protect from any scratches. And on the uprights, we're gonna zoom in over here on one of these uprights, you can see these uprights have an extra wide base on 'em, to disperse the weight evenly.
And right here, when you put your bolt into the end of the cross brace here, it gives you four height settings to bolt it in. Allows the rack to fit most roof designs. The adjustable high-flow range anywhere from six and a quarter inch, all the way up to eight and a half inches. Also, right up here you notice, have the built-in holes on each upright, to allow you to quickly and easily secure the cargo with bungee cords. Now they are very easy clamp-on installation.
You look at the bottom down here, you can see how these will clamp onto the rain gutters. And then you just tighten it down, there's no drilling required. If you notice right here, these black strips they have on here, these rubber strips will help protect your roof from any damage when you install these. All the hardware you need to install is included. And they are also very easy to remove.
Specs again, this fits application, or the application for these are vans that have rain gutters. We mentioned the carrying capacity of 500 pounds. But you do always wanna check the van's roof capacity and use the lowest rating for the capacity you need to go by. It does come with a nice instruction manual, that'll describe how this all goes together and how it installs. But that should do it for the review on the Flint Hill Goods Two-Bar Steel Ladder Rack for vans with the 500 pound capacity..

Easily mount this durable steel ladder rack to your van's rain gutters. Adjustable height and width ensure a good fit for your vehicle. Tie-down points allow you to secure cargo quickly and easily. Simple installation requires no drilling.Just received this item today. So far the only issue I have is that the packaging was quite tore up. Causing the crossbars to be exposed. Both ends are scratched up pretty bad, down to bare metal, and one set screw is long gone. Not the fault of eTrailer, rather the shipping and handling. No big deal for me as this item will be heavily modified, welded and painted to match the rest of my project. The gutter brackets are surprisingly well made for the cost. Probably be my first choice for future builds.
Easy to assemble with clear instructions, not that you will need them. I am using them as a canoe rack at a quarter the price of the more prestigious brands. Shipping was fast! Less than 24 hours from ordered to delivered and it was free.
This is the second set I’ve bought. Unfortunately the quality is worse than the first set. One of the locating tabs was cracked right out of the package. I’ll weld it back together. But this will be the last set of these bars I’ll buy. Moving on to a different design.
Product as described and incredibly useful. The gutters on my box trailer are relatively narrow, so the clamps needed a bit of adjustment to grip firmly. I expected that from other reviews.
Product came packed and strapped correctly like a product of this size should be??. Super simple install and seems to be plenty strong enough for the everyday painting contractor. For the price point this ladder rack is great!
We bought this rack to haul our canoe on. The rack is very easy for one person to install. There are plenty is places to tie off the canoe, which we also tie onto our van. We were surprised at the lack of wind noise going down the road. The rack is really sturdy as well. Very happy with it.
I actually modified the rack slightly and installed it on a trailer. I strap 2 canoes to the rack, and it works perfect. Money well spent. Thanks again.
Just wanted to say great service !!! My product was at my door in the matter of a day or two , I was a very easy process for the installation and the racks were good quality and a great price . Thanks Donnie Smith
I use this on the cab roof of an E350 box van to carry a spare tire, it has been rock solid over some very rough terrain.
The customer service was exceptional. This part was very well built and seems to be very strong. The only issue I had was the bottom of the poles were heavily scratched and a good amount of rust on them. I sanded all the rust off the ends and bottom then had to prime and repaint. Other than the issue of product handling everything was great.
I like that it can be taken off our van, a chevy express, and put on any other van we may have in the future. The sides have peaks but only a worry if you are going into a garage.
Started rusting almost immediately from inside the tubes. Mounting screws also started rusting almost immediately.
Easy to assemble with clear instructions, not that you will need them. I am using them as a canoe rack at a quarter the price of the more prestigious brands. Shipping was fast! Less than 24 hours from ordered to delivered and it was free.
I'm using them to hold my solar panels. I just got them up there and they are working very well!
Product shipped very fast, clear tracking and no waiting around.
Would order from Etrailer.com

Rust. The cross bars hold rain water and leak a rusty mess onto the trailer roof when it is moved after a rain shower.
