FS: Garvin Wilderness Roof rack

[Sporin]

Garvin Wilderness Roof rack
82.5" x 60" x 6"
8 legs, great shape

My piggie came with a nice Garvin Wilderness roof rack, 4 mounts on each
side. I would like to sell it if anyone's interested as I doubt I'll ever
mount it again, tight trails here in the northeast and I won't being doing
any extended offroad trips so no need for extra carrying ability....not to mention I'm completely paranoid about the piggies drip rails.

Great shape, wooden rails could use a new coat of poly is all. It has 2 brackets on the front for lights.

You pick up in Windsor VT, no shipping please

New they are over $400, I'm asking $200 firm.

dave is there any chance the rack is made of steel if it is i am very interested. The length is good but the with is a little to much for the 4runner but it would not be difficult for me to cut out 6 or so inches out of the middle and rejoin it

Yea, when I saw this I ran out an measured mine, way to wide. : (

 

[Sporin]

I believe it's steel, too heavy to be aluminum, but I'm no expert.

Lane,
I've got the lights for you. You'll need to rewire them but they are your's gratis.

Thanks!

From the Garvin site, it looks like the rack is made of 3/4" square steel tube.

I liked the rack on there Dave I use mine to protect my roof on the trails. I try not to wheel without it have used it many times as a roof saver slide. I would fix your gutters and put it back on or atleast hold onto it and put it on for when you wheel it.

dave if your not going to keep it ill give you 200 and some help wrenching on the pig if you would like

 

[Sporin]

With all due respect to Jason ;P I am definitely not going to keep it, but Mark Woytovich has first dibs at this point, sorry nat.

 

[fogblanket]

I thought it looked good on your truck. I use mine to carry all sorts of stuff. its great for home depot runs and will be a platform for my fold out tent on a couple trips that I don't plan on bringing the tailer. to each is own I hope it nets you some other cruiser parts.

[Sporin]

yeah, the money is going into other essentials at this point. It does look cool, but I honestly just have no interest in using it.

 

[Sporin]

Jason,

You'll be happy to know I'm keeping it. It will be mounted for the FG. I'll curse your name when I get it caught on a tree.

Sara and Jack REALLY like it so it's staying.

Plus, I can stow my gear up there when I'm sleeping in the truck at night.

 

[fogblanket]

man it took you 4 months but you finally came around I say you keep your gear in your truck and sleep on the rack

 

[Sporin]

No way I'm draggin' my monstrous, Incredible Hulk-like body onto the top of my truck.

 

[fogblanket]

soon you will have all your fav possesions on the roof

Jason how does having something like that have an effect on your gas mileage?

 

[Sporin]

back on the Market, Nat (nat88toy) has first dibs now I believe

Dave think nat went and bought a yakima so think hes outa the running for the rack.
