Went for a little drive along the coast yesterday to collect my roof rack!!

Very nice. Just needs a hi-lift on the side now.

Pics???????

[Chillitt]

I'll take some pics of the feet when its light if you like. They are cast ally, with stainless plates to hook in the door frame.

Was lucky to have one of these on my truck when I got it. Not only looks good, but also works well. Every little bit unbolts so easy to customise. It's like a big meccarno set. Took the sides off mine to fit the roof tent. The only weak point is the feet at the rear which appear to not be secure as I would like. Yours looks much more secure..Your feet/mounting points are very different at the front.

[tintin]

Front mounting points are "clipped" into the door frames like any roof bar.
The next ones back are in the wrong place as they should be central to spread the load (will be sorted tomorrow hopefully, as you say, it all comes apart easy)
The rear "feet" (like the mids) just sit on the roof, but they are shaped to fit the drainage channel and have rubber pads under them.
The rear is fixed to the rear wiper arm pivot point by a bracket (shaped to go through the spoiler) and there are two brackets that hook under the rear window frame and bolt to the back rail of the rack!

Nice addition there, Alan. BTW, Has the breaker still got Rusty's 33's?

Looks great. Nice and sturdy looking.

Won't that huge vertical pole bolted to the back of the rack be a problem going under low bridges though mate?
