    Roof racks for a 90..

    I've been shopping around for roof racks for my car and am unsure what I should be looking for... they will only be used occasionally for camping gear (due to the limited space in the back) and perhaps a spare for longer trips and a jerry can.. and to support an awning.. Hubby is leaning towards the Rhino rack system (but I'm not that sold on it) has anyone got any idea's on where I should be looking.. (oh I am on a budget so am not looking at spending thousands lol)..

    Hannibul are pretty popular, look good and have various accessories for securing jerries and spares etc.

    Look here Hannibal Safari Australia

    Indeed, I was only offering my thoughts, don't need to be a vender for that.

    But I do need a vender sub for some other stuff, can you point me in the right direction

    Juddy is a friend of mine so it makes sense that he would send me a PM with info on something I have asked for..

    And thanks everyone for the info... I'll take a look at them now..

    How does one get their hands on Patriot here in Aus without paying through the nose for shipping and taxes?

    Budget? Common Sue, you have limited editon- only the best!

    I personally like the racks the follow defender roof line aka G3 style but have read heaps of threads on this are it seems the wins cheetah and Hannibal are tops + rhinos do the job and also allow individual to lift on and off.

    The last comment is very true. You do have a limited Ed 90, so a proper Rack would be the way to go.

    I sold a hannibal Rack to a owner of the same 90 as you Sue, in ACT a few weeks ago, I also fitted, a 90 rack here in BNE a few weeks ago to a very nice 90, ( admittedly we had issues with the Awning ) but none the less we are working on this.... and the rack looks the D's B's.......

    For such a Fantastic 90, you should really consider Hannibal. Patriot, or Wind cheater, if funds allow.....

    Just try and avoid one of those stupid shopping basket jobbies...
