When converting a van for vanlife the roof rack is a major consideration. Most van dwellers, either full time van lifers or weekend camper getaway people want to use the space on the roof for something. Mercedes Sprinter vans and Ford Transits are all able to have a roof rack added during the van build. Some want to have solar panels, maybe a Renergy Solar array. Some will want to be able to carry a boat, kayak or even have extra storage such as a Thule Vector storage box. Whatever your needs are in a roof rack, it should be designed to support the weight it needs to carry. But this report is specific to the Dodge Promaster Van. The Promaster has a unique system of studs built into the roof in the factory that allows for a roof rack to be added without having to make any holes in the roof itself. In this van build video we compare the Van Of Action roof rack system to the Fiamma Roof Rack. Specifically the clips that connect the roof rack to the van roof. The Fiamma system is beautifully engineered and is shipped as a part of the complete roof rack. While both roof clips are designed to hold the roof rack to the van roof, both are very different in how they accomplish this.
