L300 roof rack towers?

Post by jiminbc »

I bought a Lund roof basket yesterday and went to Cap-it to see if they had towers to fit my L300 highroof.
They didn't.
They sell Yakima and Thule but, he assured me they won't fit.
Can someone please tell me what does?
Thanks!

I have Yakimas with tower extensions that fit great, tell your lazy ............. dealer to crack open a catalouge. Make sure you get the little rubber gaskets for the roof

Just in case they're of interest, I do have a set of the Yakima 1A Hi-rise towers/locks and bars in my shed.

I'm also in the process of trying to find a dealer willing/able to bring in the Spacegear specific Thule kit that our Aussie and English friends can buy. Will post the outcome of that effort...

Thanks everyone.

I'm going to have another go with the dealer or, another one that is more interested in a sale.
To be fair, he did grab one tower and showed me that its angle made it touch the side of the roof. I'll see I can find a set that is more vertical.

And to bullwinkle: I may interested - got a price?

If you want a heavy duty setup I'd suggest using the custom made edition from Noel @ Enviro. They're not cheap but I'm sure they'll hold anything the gutters would support. I've got a special length he made for my boat loader. I don't have it on right now but if you want to see what they look like let me know. Web http://www.enviroimports.com/
