Hi guys.
Need a roof rack for my 92 LWB, struggling to find one like in the picture so does anyone know of anything that will fit?
Also can i ask why the cross bars on all the ones i have looked at bow upwards?

Yeah i was not suggesting they were faulty just why would they make them like that, hardly practicle as a rack?

I will be using mine for my Kayak so would want it flat, would not be too happy strapping something on my roof to a non flat surface area.

Hi, I know this is a reply to a very old Post but I've got the roof rack off my old Vitara - looking to sell it and offers as I unfortunately haven't got my lovely, old gal anymore. (apologies for upside down photos, can't see a way here to make them upright.)
