Greetings,
I am looking for advice on how to attach cross bars to the factory round rails on my 1993 Lance 480 truck camper roof. Any advice is appreciated.

Thank you.

Thanks everyone for the feedback. I am really just trying to install two cross bars that run perpendicular to the existing factory roof rails in order to install a storage box or other roof top mounts. I think I found out what I need to accomplish this, but we will see.

If the crossbars are new they should have instructions as to do it. From what I remember they had a slide mechanism that tightened down with a plastic screw. Theirs a groove in the top of the bars already installed on the roof. I don't remember if I had to remove the rear piece of the installed bars or not to install the crossbar slider. I don't think so, I think they just go in the groove and turn. Mine have been up there for years and have a roof pod attached. I can't really answer your question better than that but I can take some pics after work if it's still daylight. This is all from memory, so not really reliable. So I'm told... LOL
