You get better racks yet????? Or you making the basket to go straight to roof mounts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavefromOZ Posted June 10, 2009 Share Posted June 10, 2009 You get better racks yet????? Or you making the basket to go straight to roof mounts Will use my existing racks, they will hold up no worries as long as I tighten them properly. I have designed the basket to incorporate an awning, that will be made sometime in the future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Auspathy Posted June 11, 2009 Share Posted June 11, 2009 you need to cut the roof of that sierra and turn it into a fun buggy We actually thought of doing that cause it wouldve been awesome to take to bribie n double island. That was until we stood behind it. Almost every panel bent outa shape plus a twisted chassis. Was the most fun 30 secs of my life that crash... Planning on not doing it again though.
