My Chevrolet Express van Class B- camper
I have been camping in my 1990 Chevrolet Silverado Blazer 2-door for the last 20 years. When I removed the back seat there was just enough room for a 3/4 sized (Hollywood, as some people called them)...

Looks great, I like the lower profile you achieved, Can I ask where you got the gutter mount cross bars? I haven't found any that are as low profile as those Just the ladder rack type that are much taller.
I ordered them from Vantech USA in Brooklyn, NY. They are called "2 bar Chevy Express/GMC Savana Ladder Roof Rack 1996-2016." I can't find them in their online catalog, but here is a website that has what they look like.

I found some on ebay for about $80 so I didn't pay the price shown on the website above. I included that link so you could see what they looked like before I modified mine.
I cut the crossbars shorter http://www.rv.net/forum/index.cfm/fuseaction/thread/tid/28113784/gotomsg/29091420.cfm#29091420 so they would fit under the side brackets rather than on top of them. That is how I achieved the lower profile. Then I painted them the OEM body color of my van. Next I looked around until I found a basket that would fit my lower profile roof rack. Hope this information helps.
