Anyone with a skylon tower similiar to below. What size is the rectangular horizontal tube between the round vertical tubes.

Not sure, but there are clamps made to fit it.
My 04 supra SSV has similar rectangular bars

I know. I'm wondering if they are similiar size to the bars on my samson tower. I don't like the racks they make so I'm looking for others.

Those bars are 1"x3" approximately. Be careful, I've seen a couple of older skylon towers with a 1"x4" (just like the nautiques). Make sure you measure first.

Most oval bars used on towers only come in three sizes. 1x2, 1x3, and a 1x4. Hope that helps. We do make clamps for all the listed sizes.

David,
I have this tower on my boat and the horiz. tube is 1.25" X 3.0". That is what mine is and don't know if it has changed over the years.

Thanks. I thought it looked a little bigger than my tube. Mine is 2"x1" anyone know if a rack manufacturer makes a mount that would fit that? Or do any of them do custom mounts?
