Roof Rack
Is there a Roofrack expedition type that will fit a 1989 LWB 280? Ta!
Cheaper the better!!
Patriot Roofracks in Bedfors make one that fits the G. Great piece of kit but it ain't cheap. Recently there was another make on eBay and it went for about £200. Good luck in your search.
How about getting any old rack, welding it to any old bars, weld them to the appropriate fittings and then, if you think it necessary, weld them to the G? I have standard Thule bars and fittings on mine.
As far as I know defender racks fit but sit high. I think twodogs fitted one...
If you're putting it to serious use and on rough terrain then I would consider spending "enough" as you do get what you pay for with racks...
Thanks for replies I will def look at different alternatives!!
