A few days ago I had the roof rails and crossbars from Rhino Rack installed. The whole job, incl installation, was $528.00 or more than half the price I got quoted from LR. I think the roof-rails look better on the car than LR's original ones.[/img]

here are some pictures;
Had it installed by a local 4wd shop, Formula Offroad in St.Marys NSW. But any authorised Rhino Rack dealer can help you.

Nathan,
I do like the Hannibal rack, it is smart and it suits the Disco perfectly.
Do you have the supplier's web address.06 TDV6 SE with many LR and after-market extras. Used only on weekends and trips out west.

Rak40, are the bars and rails from Rhino, or just the bars?

Jamo, Do you have a Rooftop tent on your Rackmaster ? If you do how do you find it on corrugations etc ?
Alan
Yes, i do Alan. I've got an ARB Simpson (it's basically a re-badged Howling Moon Tourer). It's been on there for about six months now and I do about 200km-400km of gravel a week.
No problems at all! Nothing coming loose! And no dust gets inside. I think there's some pics in my gallery.
I have it opening to the rear and also have an annex that I can zip on. I'll see if I can put on some more pics.Have a nice day!

Thanks, Jamo. I was thinking of something similar thru Opposite Lock.
I see you have a dual wheel carrier. Are the swing bars detatchable when not in use ?
Yes, they say it's a five minute job, but it's really about ten!
I got my rack at Opposite Lock. I've also got a gas bottle holder, shovel holder and spare wheel holder. Great stuff!Have a nice day!

Anyone know where I can get these from in the UK. I like the Hannibal and Frontrunner options.
Thanks

Frontrunner Rack with rails on
In the Beginning there was nothing, which exploded.
Nice job, Andrew - are the bolts along the sides for the uprights on the rail?
Worringlyexcited - the Front Runner rack is available from Frogs' Island (?frog's island). If you're near Yeovil, you're welcome to pop over and see the one on mine.Time flies like an arrow; fruit flies like a banana
