    Roof Cages

    Has anyone tried these roof cages out??

    Aluminium Alloy Roof Cage 4 Landrover Discovery1&2 | eBay

    Almost looks too good to be true for the price but I don't need anything too heavy duty for the tent and few other bits.

    Interested in your opinions.

    Cheers,

    Rob

    Mmmmm I don't know. It's a good price but some others are close these days too as advertised in 4wd mags or eBay too.

    Do the other ones come with the cross bars too??
    I checked out some prices for HD Rhino Rack cross bars and they were in the $200's just for the bars.

    As far as i know the cage can be removed to allow you to just use the cross bars but I haven't seen the maximum carry weight.

    Might have to take a drive up and have a look in person, they have a factory in Campbellfield.

    The cage is 5" high, cant be very big, check the dimensions, Bob
    I’m pretty sure the dinosaurs died out when they stopped gathering food and started having meetings to discuss gathering food

    A bookshop is one of the only pieces of evidence we have that people are still thinking

    Looks like a knock-off of the Rhino HD crossbars/legs & their alloy tray.

    I have a genuine Rhino tray & 3x HD crossbars/legs (2.0m long - just like the one in the 4th photo). Just make sure the legs are high enough! Rhino say to use their 280mm legs for the D2 ... I used the 210mm legs with 2x 10mm spacers each leg and re-profiled the inside of the legs to clear the radiused edge of the roof.

    For $209 (tray & bars/legs) is pretty cheap .... as long as it's not made using el-cheapo nasty plastics, I reckon it's a very reasonable price.
