Coleman Safari Rack

[Brock]

It looks like I got on this too late as they are no longer offered by Costco...and could only find one on Ebay currently.

Same rack made for Thule and Yakima by SportRack it appears but with a huge price difference.

Does anyone have a line on this rack near them or online? Only other things I could find were $300-600 each for a decent basket setup. Thanks for any research as GOOGLE was not much help other than making me cry for missing the $59 special at COSTCO.

check t4r.org or YotaTech

There are some other alternatives but not at that fine a price.

Check the latest postings on Coleman safari rack threads on t4r.org or over on YotaTech for suggestions.

I've heard of rusting issues with the Coleman racks, not sure how much of a problem it is though. I have the WAAG basket insert, but haven't installed it yet. It's pretty solid, but not cheap at over $600. I still think that's a good alternative to a full Gobi rack.

yeah they got rust water where they connected that dripped out....so most get spray on bedliner in the can...cover them in it and that does the trick for surface rust and helps keep it out of tubing.

You might try a Coleman Outlet, I was at the one in Pigeon Forge, Tn last week and they were $139.99.

FWIW.....don't know how these will hold up, but the price isn't that bad. Thinking of getting one myself if I can't find a used Coleman.

Sent you a PM about a possible lead....

Edit: Did not see the date on the original post. If you are looking for the sportsrack and around WNC give me a PM. I know where one is new in box and can get discount to cruiser heads.......
