I know where their is a rack i think its simular to what you are talking about and is for sale, the only problem is its located here on the Gold Coast from memory its off a 109 I last saw it about 12 months ago.

I've got an Expedition rack I bought with my D4, to be honest I didn't like it (too noisy), I've riveted a rubber strip to the front edge, down to the roof and that helped but still noisy in a cross wind. I'd be happy to sell it for a grand but transport is the problem, packaging etc. I'm 200km south of Perth an d you will need your own short roof rails.

I can echo KENL, now I have an Expedition rack, I think they are more about the look than practicality. They have very few cross rails, and you cannot just chuck items up. The rack is also very noisy. I have used a filler tube to block the airgap on the front to shut it up.

Can I suggest you have a look at the new Rhino 'Pioneer' alloy rack. It is a lot lower in profile, and the side rails are optional. ( you can have it as just a flat tray if you wish.) Apart from that, Dolium have a good option in their Windcheetah range. ( Opposite Lock sell this range. The Windcheetah is a lot more practical and nowhere near as noisy.

Great advice, thanks guys!!

Hi All,
I think that the OL Rackmaster is the FrontRunner WindCheetah (from Sth Africa, through Dolium).

I have the WindCheetah 2.2m rr. To date, the wind noise hasn't been an issue. If it becomes so, I will fit an Al plate to the bottom of the rr.

Best Wishes,
Peter
