On the roof of a 110?? I need a full length roofrack that'll take 8x4 sheets of ply etc, to fit on me 110. But I'll be fooked if I'm gonna pay 4 or 5 times the going rate for a roofrack, Just because someone has had it fitted to a Landy. :mad:

So!! Has anyone fitted a rack off anything else? Transit sprinter etc etc??

If ya have, can ya list what it came off. & what mods were needed to get it to fit. Any thing that can save us fender owners a few quid has gotta be a good thing?? :)

I have 3 rhino roof bars from a high top transit. They are a bit on the high side so you might consider normal or mid roof bars but 2 of em can take the weight of my roof tent and myself and the ballast. A set of 3 should sort you out. Transit bars often go cheap too.
 
not sure its what you had in mind, but might be handy none the less.. Off a mitsubishi L200, bit of modification needed, but does the job for light stuff...

not big enough Has to take 8ft x 4ft sheets of ply & palsterboard etc.. & be strong enough to load up with 60/70 mtrs of 4"x2" timber etc.

I did :eek: What sort of advice is "FFS don't get the doors wet & install a pump in ya boot"?? When I told em I'd had water over my bonnet & didn't have a boot, They attacked me.. with what looked like curling tongs???? :confused: :confused:
 
£200 gets you a new bog standard galv rack from Paddocks. A pukka Brownchurch one is more obviously. Branded Aluminium ones or other types are also considerable more.

If that's too much then they can be had for £100 or so off eBay usually (usual eBay price variance applies!).

Yep but transit ones of better quality go for less :confused: :confused:

So Once I've found someone who's stuck the rack off another vehicle on their 110 I'll know where to start looking.

Saw a Ally rack (cheapy copy) got for £400 :eek: Mitsa****ty ones go for about £50. And are usually reasonably good quality.

Seems all a seller has to do to sell a roof rack for stupid money i put Landrover in the title.

Yes please If it'll fit me fenders gutters. I know Disco ones is wider. Cos I've had to bend the legs out for a friend who bought a 90 one for his disco.
 
Red, I have three rhino bars and have carried 8x4s loads of times. I was luckily as I picked a pair up of fleabay for £33 then bought a new one for £60 (I needed it straight away).

Just a thought: if you buy from Craddocks let me know and I'll collect it. Landyzone carriers can then get it to you.
 
Ive got 2 roof bars on my 90. Cant remember what make they are, bought em off blue beasty.
Ive had 300m of roofing batten on em and they copped well.
Cost £40 i think.
Why dont you make your own?
