Has anyone removed a factory roofrack for a new model Ford SUV such as an 07+ Expedition or 07+ Explorer with the newer hight profile racks? If so, can they be removed permenantly?

Thanks

Yes. The ends of the each bar slides off (ones in the front to the front and visa versa) then they are just in there with hex or star bits. i think they are like size 11 or something. then the middle part of the bar also slides off. it looks like it needs to be loosened via the hex or star but it is virtually impossible with the angel being too extreme. therefor it just slides off. 6 screws total per bar. i left the screws in to keep rain out. so it isn't 100% flush but close enough. mine is black so it isn't seen really. it is pretty simple. hope these directions helped.
