Re: Carawagon wooden roof rack diamentions

My sw 109 is far from road worthy, I'm hoping to have it on the road for the end of the summer , but it all depends on work and finding some of the bits I am missing.

But when it's MOTed I be ordering!

Re: Carawagon wooden roof rack diamentions

Dear all, I've decided to go with a meta rack in stead for the wooden one. As I feel in the long run it will probably be stronger and last longer.

Carawagon wooden roof rack diamentions

Hello

I am looking to replace the wooden front supports of the roof on the carawagon roof. Mine look like they have been cut and shaped to the roof. I would like to add the supports for the rack. Dose anyone have a template for this? Or a drawing?


Thanks
Ben
