Confer Roof Rack

[1962fj40]

I have a Confer Roof Rack that was on a old International Scout and I'm wanting that on my FJ40. Are there clamps available that won't break thebank?

I'd call @65swb45 . His number is on his profile and he's well versed in Con-Ferr.

If you want the Conferr style clamps that are made for that rack, you're in luck because these guys reproduce them.

Pretty sure these are the heavy duty mounts that Mark’s Offroad created. As stated Mark takes phone orders.

Gamaviti makes some excellent roof towers that will fit an Fj40.

Yup, those are mine. Pretty sure that’s one of my racks I sold to CDan for the museum.

Mark A's are definitely the least expensive of the bunch, great quality and a dead-match to what Con-ferr produced. We actually sold the Gamiviti units with our roof racks before we developed our Bulldog 2.0's. They're very nice units, too, but more $$ than Mark's.

You mention that you got the rack off an IH Scout. I'm guessing that rack is probably around 54" wide. The typical rack (both Con-ferr and DiamondRax) for the FJ40 is 60" wide. If your rack is substantially narrower than 60" you'll need to do some retro-fitting to make rain gutter clamps work (just like in the pics of the rack on the FJ55 in post #4).

Hey Mark, what spacers are you using in the Karmacruiser to space the rack up above the bracket?

 

[65swb45]

Mark’s Off Road 1” spacers. No catalog listing. $3.00 each.
