Here is my "cobulated" idea, admittedly done this way to take advantage of parts in stock:
http://www.fafcosolar.com/download/402/Cobulate.pdf Unirac Solarmount rails, sandwiched together and lagged to post, and a brace from L-Feet and ΒΌ"x2" aluminum bar. Modules top or bottom mount clips to rails. Think this will work, or will the "east-west" twisting be too much?

It can be side of post mounted, but I'd prefer top of post to get it up a little higher. Any ideas/products appreciated. Jason Szumlanski Fafco Solar
