YES!! Yakima does.
But you can't do it ... That's my idea. ;-)'
Now that you know you can't do it.. Here are the part numbers
Part #8000105 .. you need one of these *It's the 4 Towers*
Part #8000662 .. 2 of these *Comes in packages of 2, the attacment to hook onto the roof*
Part #8000408 .. and 1 of these *2x 48" bars*
Go to http://www.yakima.com/ to check it out.

I took a Thule rack from a Jeep and used it to fit on mine. It was a tough job, but I still did it.
Looks pretty good too.

You can check it out below.

Hey Ayrow-thats a great site you got there! I was wondering what a sunroof would look like, and how it would work. You provided some good info! Nice looking truck too. I was also going to install some euro markers on the side fender, but my truck is 400 miles old and drilling threw new paint is a little scary!! The nirror looks like a good idea.

I just got the Yakima rack.. Cost me $260 from REI. It took me a minute or 2 *1 hour* to get it on and I ripped my seal on the back door on the drivers side :'( but after I figured out what the hell I was doing everything went on w/o any problems. I would have to suggest with a lot of emphasis to get the wind guard because this rack makes a very loud howling noise once you get over 45mph below that and it’s easily ignored.

Thats sounds like a good price, where did you get it? Did it come with the round bars or square?

I got mine from mopar.com they cost around $200.00 if I remember right. Installed them myself. Took about 2 hours. They install with rivets and sheetmetal screws. Any roof rack will make a whinning noise when cruising down the highway, so be prepared if you install one.

Mine is from Yakama they are round bars no drilling threw my roof it's clamped on w/ locks I have the guard in front so there is no wind noise. I couldn't stand the noise that they did put off with out it. I should have some pictures in the next couple of days.

I've been looking for a roof rack for a 2001 Dakota club cab that is similar to the heavy duty one on the Nissan Frontier. I haven't had any luck yet. Need something that can handle the bulk and weight of a canow on the roof.

I'm looking for a roof rack system too, but I need one to extend all the way back and attach to my topper, so I can slap a canoe up there.

I'd be glad to hear how the roof racks turn out. The Frontier roof rack should really look good on the Dakota
