Expedition Roof Rack and Front Runner
Hi. I recently went on a trip to Cameron Corner and was challenged with getting my front runner roof rack accessories fixed to my New Defender expedition roof rack. Heading to Simpson desert next August 2023 so starting to think about the roof fit out now. Love the Front Runner gear but its fixings and spacings don’t really work with the defender roof rack. Made some adjustments and made do using Rola T-bolts and extenders. Thinking about getting a fabricated set up made so that it fixes to the roof rack using the Thule T-bolts (as the bars are Thule) and has the layout with fixings for my Front runner gear: spare wheel mount, single and double Jerry can mounts, 42L water tank, wolf pack pro box (for recovery gear) + MaxTrax shovel/track mount. Will also have an awning added.
Looking for any solutions anyone already have. Also, if there’s any recommendations for fabricators who do this sort of stuff, that would be great. I’m in Brisbane.

The biggest issue is what you can safely load on your roof with your system:
I could only load a maximum of 75kg on the old one's roof including the rack!
The manufacturers both vehicle and rack will take a conservative view but over that, the risk is all yours!
Have a gander at this:
