nicely done!
daze,
Are you still having to the racks off to clear the door? If so where are you taking them apart at?
What mirror arm do you have that was shown in a pic hanging from the tower? You have to take it off to drop the tower getting in the garage?
From my experience with Chase's 2013 LSV, the 2013 racks:
-Are ugly as sin; they have sharp edges, and look like an afterthought, not an OEM piece
-Hit the tower; regardless of adjustment, they still hit the tower
-Don't swivel all the way in, and don't lock straight back. Super annoying.
-The locking pins vibrate lose and cause the racks swivel unexpectedly.
I'm glad I had a chance to play with them on Chase's LSV, because I'd be upset if I bought them for my OBV.
These Monster racks have me rethinking modding my Roswell swivel racks to fit the OZ tower, and just going the Daze route!
If his racks have the black handled pins that you pull out to swivel the rack vs the pull up knobs, then he doesn't have the redesigned 2013 racks. I haven't had any of the issues he has encountered with the new racks.

I think they are 2013, they have pull up knobs;

(Didn't have a direct pic, I cropped these 2 because they were all I had)
Yep, those are the same I have, but they shouldn't be hitting the tower or swinging in without pulling up on the knob.

I dunno. Even if they didn't, I still think they look cheesy.
I do have to remove the racks to clear the garage door, they remove by taking out the single allen screw, the clamp stays on the tower. the clamp and bar have this multi point star pattern that locks it in place when its tightend down.
mirror arm is allso removed for lower the tower, it removes with no tools needed--got it at Bakes marine i think.
I remove everything off the tower-speakers, mirror, and racks cause my wife or daughter actually lower the and raise the tower while im tightening the 2 bolts which I do from standing outside the boat.
