Sal die Thule roof bars op my D4D pas?

Post by BosveldBul »

Manne, ek weet nie hoe lyk die rails op my D4D double cab nie. Sal hierdie fittings op hom pas?

Dankie by voorbaat

Dunno either, what do you plan to carry? Canoe, bike? :think:
But my guess is you'll need a track to mount them on.

I would like to put my tent and poles on the roof of either the canopy or the Lux itself. They take up a lot of space inside the canopy.

Doubt it - looks like they are gutter mount - i.e. SFA type.

Is see on your profile picture that your canopy has roof bars. The expensive option is to buy the Thule footing for the roof bars or the footing for the gutterless cab. The cheaper option is to try the Holdfast roofbar option or the canopy. I think it might fit on the Thule bars. Check it on their website http://www.holdfast.co.za/?portfolio=fo ... with-rails" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;. You can also make a DIY plan if you have time. See the Holdfast picture.

I have the same problem.
Got the old SFA type roof racks.
Could one just buy the new footing part?
Problem is it might be too short as well. when i tried this roofrack on the suzie canopy it just just made it across.

Anybody got roof bar / rack to fit d4d cab. I just need one. To hold the front end of the fishing rods

maybe consider those sucker cups ... afterall, this is only to hold the tip, the actual weight is firmly carried over the canopy.
