Title: My New RoofRack
Post by: brianb on February 20, 2010, 15:50:20

Hi All

Just picked up my Safari roofrack from a small company in Bradford called LandyRax and I have to say its fantastic :D :D :D

If anyone is after a roofrack then look this guy up, His website is still under construction http://landyrax.com/ (http://landyrax.com/) but it has his contact details and a link to his Ebay store.

I'm  in no way connected with this seller but was SOOOOOO impressed with the roofrack I had to share.

Hopefully my pics should be below

Nope it was not cheap at £350 BUT i had been looking at some going for £200+ that were rusted to hell and the wrong size...thats how i justified the cost to myself :D

And yes they do make a noise at 70, its not too bad and i think that if you have a load on it it may not whistle as much.

Just got to work our what spots to put on it, They must be recatangular with black back.

It is very much like the SD racks and is very well made.  I can walk on the roof rack and i'm 17 Stone.  Well worth the money.

I got one of these racks from the same place i'm very impressed with mine, noise levels are surprisingly less than i thought. I would definately reccomend these they are very similar to the safety devices rack at a fraction of the price.

to me they look that alike i think some one has nicked the SD plans the only difference is a cb mount and 2 rear work lamps
as the SD rack has 1 rear work lamp mount and no cb mount
