Inexpensive DIY Roof Rack on my 05-20 Frontier Pro-4x

Don't want to drop a grand on a platform rack? Here's a detailed look at my budget DIY approach using unistrut. I've built this upon the stock tubular rails found on some 2nd gen Nissan Frontiers, but with some creativity it can be adapted to nearly any vehicle. I previously ran a very similar roof rack build on my Subaru Forester.
