Need some help to fit an ARB Roof Basket to my 1991 LJ77

[JungleJames]

Hi all!

I am looking for some help to find the correct sizing and part numbers to order an ARB aluminum roof basket and the correct fit kit for the truck.

The truck is a 1991 LJ77, the LandCruiser II.

The roof is about 53" x 96" in total so I am figuring that the I would order the ARB 4900010M as it is 87" x 49" and the fit kit...maybe the same kits as for the 80 series the ARB 3700060?

Any help would be awesome as there seems to never be anything made specifically for the 70 series, never mind a LJ77.

Thanks!

Toyota make a rack to suit the 1991 LJ77.

Why not contact ARB and see what they say ?

Yes but from what I an see it is made up of 100 parts that will all rattle apart from my experience living down here. I also want the ARB look and build quality. Thanks.

I did and they said their fitting guide does not include the LJ77.
Not very helpful at all.

I have that rack or one very like it on my LJ78. All aluminum, it fit very nicely, and works very well! id you manage to figure anything out?

You have the ARB rack on your 78? My 77 is the exact same dimensions as your 78.
Do you know the exact part number for the mounting kit and for the rack?

When I order I have no option to return it so I had better get this correct the first time.
Thanks!

OK sorry for the slow reply. Here is what I ordered, that was what the fellow came back with.
3800010M ARB STEEL WITH MESH FLOOR ROOF RACK BASKET 87 X 49 INCH
3700050 ARB ROOF RACK FITTING KIT

Except that I ordered the 4900010M, which is the alloy rack (aluminum) I am not sure about the fitting kit, there are only those numbers available in the catalog that I have.
The fitting kit allows adjustment sideways to perfectly fit your gutter. That is the 87" rack that is the full length of my roof, and is working great!

This is the bit of catalog the fellow sent me.
Good luck
