Safari roof racks on a Subaru?


Recommended Posts

Surco makes a 40"x50" aluminum safari rack listed as perfect size for a Subaru, light brackets, spare tire brackets etc. optional. I've seen it listed as low as $167at Summit Racing of all places. I'm tempted to get one for my now outbackified wagon. Searching for opinions on it I saw a Land Rover forum that complained it was flimsy and cheap, but since that's coming from LR guy's who knows how sturdy it may be, those same guys likely refer to our rides in the same manner. I like that the aluminum may be much lighter than a HD steel rack. I plan to attach it with yakima adapters for the factory crossbars and some custom hardware. Now to figure out how I want to mount the Hellas on the front bumper... (fogs on the bumper, driving on the rack)

Yes soloracer34 that would work! It appears they also have brackets for putting lights on the rack. In trying to find their web site I went to surco.com, which is Surco Products Inc. but is for non-formaldehyde cherry-bubblegum fragrance portable toilet deodorant...whoops wrong site! Surcoinc.com works though.
