Which roof rack?

[Winchweight]

I am considering buying an aluminium roof rack to fit on top of the pop top on our van. There are several on eBay at present in the £100 region. Has anyone had experience of these?

I am keen to go lightweight due to the pop top, but also I dont anticipate putting huge weight on top, mainly waffle boards, possibly a couple of jerry cans for water (usually empty), awning, solar panel perhaps and eventually a couple of pelican boxes.

The Shogun/Pajero ones always look good, though try to get one with adjustable feet/legs, or you have to bodge them around a bit. There;s a couple on here who have them (not me though....sigh....)

Speak with this fella, http://forum.club8090.co.uk/memberlist. ... ile&u=3569" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; he had a long very good uber light Ally roof rack and bars for sale for only £150. I can vouch for how good it is as it used to belong to me Much better than the one in that link.

Im currently modifying a transit full length one

It does fit, but weighs more that the van!

I'm looking at Pajero and Trooper ones at present.

we´re about to start making them in full and half sizes in aluminium, will post some pics as soon as the prototypes are done

Ok, with prices please. I want one for the pop top, so lightweight is good.

This is our one, The Pajero one.
Light weight goes on our pop top on the Westy roof brackets that sit in the gutter. Very strong can walk on it no problem.
There's a sticker on saying it'll take 50kg.

Perfect! Are you selling it?
