Land Rover roof bars are a useful way of transporting a variety of loads on top of your 4×4. John Craddock Ltd stocks a comprehensive range of Land Rover roof bars.
Features of Land Rover Roof Bars
There are many types and makes of roof racks on the market. They are a robust solution to transporting large or bulky loads and can free up space within your vehicle. We sell roof racks and Land Rover roof bars by brands like ARB, Front Runner, Mantec and Safety Devices. You can get the extra load carrying capacity for your Land Rover Defender, Discovery, Freelander, or Range Rover.
When choosing your Land Rover roof bars and roof racks, features to consider include:
- Steel tubing is the most common material used to make roof racks. This is because it is strong and aerodynamic. If weight is very important to you, aluminium weighs 30% lighter than the equivalent in steel.
- Adjustable feet and legs allow multi vehicle fittings.
- Evenly spaced cross bars and mesh will distribute the load equally.
- Fitting to the guttering along the edge of the roof/ top of the vehicle sides will avoid damage to the bodywork. If your Land Rover doesn’t have guttering, getting the right means of fitting your roof rack is very important. If in doubt, we’re here to help and advise you at John Craddock.
- Not all roof racks and roof bars are compatible with a sunroof. Getting the right rack will mean that you can enjoy the sunshine and additional ventilation from a sunroof.
- Some roof racks have a high top rail which is good for securing the load. Others have a lower profile, which is useful if driving into height restricted areas like multi storey car parks, or for improved aerodynamics.
