I spaced the rods 4 5/8" apart. I drilled the holes at the same height, but you could drill the back hole lower so to make the pak level when on the rack. Just a thought. An additional note; because of the depth of the tour pak and the shortness of the shelf brackets, this is the only orientation that the pak will mount. If you turn the pak around, the front will hit the wall.
How many beers was this job?

Looks good, I kinda did the same thing with some speed rack angle brackets.
I am kinda laughing at the "3/8" Lock Nuts" on the ends though.
That's kind of over kill isn't it. You get a lot of vibrations on your wall? LOL

Lock Nuts
WOW... Now that's a lot of **** for just using a few lock nuts!!! I just rummaged around in my nut bin and found just enough to do the job. I didn't have enough regular nuts and had four extra lock nuts. I didn't think it would hurt... and I didn't want to make a "special" trip to Ace Hardware. If I knew the **** that would come out of a couple lock nuts, I guess I should have made the trip. Take it easy guys.....
