D3 - Roof rails & cross arms

**Ezeman** · 15th March 2018, 08:04 AM

Does anyone know the distance between the D3 roof rails?

My disco is away getting fixed (the TDV6 plastic water outlet split in the middle of a steep high country track) so I can't measure it or find any measurements anywhere.

I need to fit rails to hold my 1200mm wide rack. Too long a story but, when I get the car back, I'll have only a couple of hours to fit and load up before heading on a trip. So I'll need to buy the kit before I get the car back.

Basically, if the rails gap is less than the width of the rack then I can fix it directly and won't need to buy cross bars.

1080mm approx. centre to centre, i just put some rhino heavy duty bars onto a pair of RLTP legs and they overhnag the roof a bit but not overly.

Thanks, I somehow missed this reply (& a PM).

I ended up getting a full Rhino Rack platform fitted - works great.
