Beautiful Rack- Need guidance (1 Viewer)

[FlyFish90]

Hi Guys,

Proud new owner of a 2000 LC and am just starting to build on it (literally from scratch).

One of the first toys i want is a RTT, but the LC has a bare naked roof, so i need to get me some a rack system before i can get one of those. I was hoping to get some recommendations on a good, relevatively inexpensive ($600-700 if possible), rack.

Also, i read some threads earlier and have done some investigating. I really like the Gamiviti rack, but it is just a little out of my price range to get the full rack and mounting pieces, etc. So i am open to any suggestions!

I am located in San Francisco/Bay Area, any recommendations would be hugely appreciated!

Thanks

Baja rack is probably your best bet.

What makes you say that? I do like the Bajas, but was hoping to get one a little cheaper.

Just get Thule or Rhino Rack crossbars. They will get the job done a hell of a lot cheaper than a flat rack.

What do you recommend getting for mounts for the crossbars? It doesnt have any roof rails to mount to...

GAMIVITI ALL THE WAY !!!!!!! Right around your budget and very awesome!

Do yourself a giant favor and check them out before buying anything else

They mount using the holes where the factory rack was. They are really easy to install.

The Gamiviti mounts will work and should be very adaptable to a variety of crossbar solutions. I don't think you need a full flat rack for an RTT.

Gamiviti have half and 3/4 flat racks if you don't want/need the full deal but I would say once you have it pretty soon you realize how much better it is to have it all the way!
I sure love mine!

@FlyFish90 Look in the classifieds. Saw a Baha Rack for sale.

I bought a RTT for my 80. Slapped on some Thule crossbars and mounting brackets all somewhere around $350ish. I really wanted a nice roof rack, but I also like the least expensive and easiest method to get stuff done. Worked for me.
