Re: Roofrack
Go to Front Runner in Midrand - their prices are pretty good!
They have a new model and an older model - I got the latter at around 4k.

Re: Roofrack
Hi Dave
It may depend on what you want to spend, but my custom roof rack was at least half the price of most of the branded makes.
I got mine made to fit 12 ammo boxes next to one another.
OR, when I have the RTT on, I still have 6 boxes on top.
I have not seen a factory made racks that come out in that size.
Also, I had a "man-hole" made directly above the sunroof.

Can you remember who made it for you and their contact details? I am looking into replacing mine.
