Roof rack and ladder on my 2004 Northstar TC800

[spokeyjoe]

I have called and emailed Northstar asking for a schematic for installing a roofrack and ladder on my previously owned camper, and get no help. Can someone help me determine if I should drill into the fiberglass roof and find studs, or should I use drill and use capnuts? How about placement of a ladder on the back?

For the roofrack, Yakima has a pretty sweet set up for laying down a set of tracks on the roof to attach the feet and bars, but I don’t want to experiment without some knowledge.

Thanks in advance,

I will send pictures tomorrow of our 2011 NorthStar that has a rack as well as a ladder.

We use Ohuhu extension ladder. This Aluminum Telescopic Extension Ladder has been a big help when I have work to do on my RV like washing the roof and other minor repairs. The extendable telescoping ladder with spring loaded locking mechanism non-slip ribbing. Takes up very little room under the RV when stored.
