    There are two types of Lowrider mounts: Lowrider and Lowrider Max. As near as I could tell, there is very little difference between them, but I do believe that the Lowrider Max was designed for specific applications such as Ford.

    The standard Lowrider is (reportedly) more general and is what I used. If you do have any problems, this could be the cause.

    Best,

    Thumbs up

    You should be OK then ... the part no. for Lowrider Max is 0136. Don't know why the instructions for the Lowrider (0118) would have a Ford logo though

    I went a different route: I took Zeus' rack and added 1" pipes to mount Yakima stuff to. Kind of a roundabout way of getting to the same place, but Ive got a full rack up there that looks pretty cool

    they fit!! they dont look beautiful or anything... but they are effective.. ill have to check back to see how they deal with a lot of weight, because they rest on the roof and not on the rails...
