Title: Show us your rack!
Post by: ebewley on October 18, 2011, 08:31:03 AM
There are a couple of roof rack threads on the site but I thought it may help to have a quick picture thread of finished roof racks people have done that can spur conversations and help people to build or buy their own.

So, show us your (roof) racks!

The God's have GONE CRAZY !!

1st) a Junking Buddies send me a e-mail attachment of Red Green's cure to backing a boat in...LOL
2nd) My girlfriend has no clue who Red Green is ; so I show her the Red Green web site...LOL some more
3rd) My Dad calls about his progress in heading to Florida (He's Turned into a "Snow Bird");
        They are a Lovely Couple....He CAN'T Hear......She CAN'T SEE...out loose in TRAFFIC !!! LOL sadly
4th) I see your post with the VW ........LOL I gotta go Pee !!!!
       PLEASE FORWARD TO MY  "PM" SO I CAN DOWN LOAD IT !!
       Living near the Major Artery heading to the Great North Woods,
       you would not believe the calls our volunteer Fire Dept. gets out on US 51/I-39. I want to frame it & put it in the Fire
       House display case. 
 FYI....when a travel trailer hops off an UN-latch hitch ball......It looks like a 1/2 mile long YARD SALE down the Median !!!

That LOOKS GREAT!!

Where did you get the Flares?
How about more information on the Sidekick?
And more photo's of the back compartment.

Very nice job on the roof rack too.

Nice rig!

How about some more shots of the bed and interior?

At first I thought I had entered the "NWS" forum by the thread title.

How about some shots of the connections?  Especially the back one.  Was the Steel Horse rack for a Tracker?
Looks interesting.

Someone that was hardcore in zuks did mine, someone may recognize truck, it used to be white and has plaques inside that read Death Crawl.  Its a Calmini rack with upper front loop shortened and an air deflector installed.

I'd love to see how it attaches to the rear. I'd love to put a rack on my vert, but don't want to lose its functionality.

If your back seat is still in, there isn't much room left for an elk.  I don't run a back seat, and had my hunting partner and a friend with his quartered 4 point elk in my Tracker.  I was running on the bump stops and wasn't much room left, but it sure beat his walking or packing it.

Ok - I know it's not a Suzuki, and it's also not mine (the red & silver behind it is mine), but I thought it was an interesting rack, so I'm posting the picture - it's made of bamboo and is fitted with lights on the four corners, amber facing forward & red facing back.

Nice and light and I bet it's fairly strong too. Interesting.

What is the silver one? I like the lines and the bamboo rack is an interesting idea.
Title: Re: Show us your rack!
Post by: fordem on December 12, 2011, 04:49:47 AM
The silver (and the red & silver behind it) are Mitsubishi Pajero iO - these were never sold in the US - depending on the country they were sold in, they will also be known as Montero iO, Shogun iO, Pajero TR4 (Brazil) or Pajero Pinin (Europe) - the Pinin name is in tribute to the Italian design studio Pininfarina, who did the design.

These are the five door versions, about the size of the 5 door Sidekick/Tracker and came with 1.8 or 2.0 litre in line 4 cylinder engines, and either a 5 speed manual or 4 speed automatic transmission and Mitsubishi's "Super Select 4WD" - 2H, 4H, 4HLc & 4LLc - 4H uses a viscous coupling between the front & rear axles, 4HLc & 4LLc lock the coupling, hence the "Lc" designation.  Construction is unibody with MacPherson strut front suspension and a five link live axle rear end, rear LSDs were available from the factory.

There is a three door version, which is also available with a 1.6 engine.

Thanks. it was designed from zero, even it was built with round tube 1 1/4", I guess the stock rack on gen 1 was square tube.

I will post later detailed pictures if someone interested on it.
