Roofrack Question

[TobyJug]

Hi

I have yet another question.
I am planning a trip to africa (maroc)in the surf for next year around easter.
7 days with a guide and 7 days without.
If u wanna come too let me know....

anyway I want a roof rack on the surf but the problem is with the standard stuff it might bounce off.
Anyone hav another roof rack solution that will be fixed better?

Dont really want to weld it straight to the body..

cheers

I was the first though, same with 'cruiser springs. Does that make me a trend setter?

No just the one with big cahooners, to take drills to your truck.

And I didn't stick my tongue out when I drilled either.

.... which rails did you use by the way?

(↑↑↑ that is actually a serious question to both of you, i'm on a cheap but useful mod-hunt at the moment ↑↑↑)

Pug 406 estate, 20 quid from a scrappy. Had to remove them myself though.

cheers, when i first thought about doing it on my old surf i spent about the next 6 weeks eyeing up the roof rails on every estate car i saw then never got round to doing it - i was a bus driver at the time so i saw quite a few too!!
