As you all know, cargo room is a problem in SWB 70 series, so I decided to get a roof rack for my FZJ71, I went with a local manufacturer called INTI.

The frame and the floor are all aluminum so it's not heavy, it has room to store jerry cans up front and normal cargo in the rear. You can take down the side rails so that the vehicle can fit into parking garages and other places with low roof clearance, you can also carry a roof top tent on it. I asked them to add a hi-lift mount to one of the side rails.

Let me know what you think:

Inti is a great manufacturer of roof racks...I will love to have one here in Texas, any distributor in the USA? How much they cost in Venezuela for a Fzj70?
 
Nice;) Is it quiet,some roof racks get a wind roar on the highway?
 
I got it installed today so I haven't had much time to test it out, I only got it up to 130km/h and could notice some wind noise, which I assume is normal for roof racks, if it becomes too annoying I might get a wind deflector installed.

The rear bumper is not made by INTI, although I'm sure they could make one if you asked them to, they do all sorts of custom jobs.

This rack costed about 430$ US.
 
Nice rack mate
and love your whole 71 mate looks tops
