What are some good place to look for solar panel mounting hardware? I'll be looking to mount panels on my roof that are roughly 68" x 40".

Just get some stuff off eBay? Build my own from angle iron at Home Depot?
 
Shipping is the real issue for long bars, but I found good pricing for Unirac at City Electric Supply, and they ship free.
Ended up getting the rest of the components at other places and Ebay.

Both Unirac and IronRidge have layout sites. I went with Unirac Flashloc for the roof mounts, very simple to install.

That looks like a Unistrut copy or just it being sold as a kit.

Yep I bought one when it was on sale on Ebay for $106. I have three 200w bifacial ecoworthy panels mounted to it on a rolling rack with 6" castor wheels. Nice and easy well thought out rack. Comes with tools and all mounting hardware(y)

I did the same thing with a couple of these. 1st one I used with 3 - 335w panels & the 2nd was with 3 - 375w panels. I did have to buy a little extra unistrut from Lowes to accommodate 39.5" & 40.5" panel widths. I thought it was a good kit.
 
I used Tamarack from NAZ (Solar Electric) on my roofs (order shorter sections that can ship UPS / FedEx). I'm extremely happy with it.

I used strut from a local electrical supply house, cone nuts and clamps from Amazon, and misc bolts from a local Amish supply store on my ground mount and will be using it again on my next ground mount. I'm extremely happy with it.
