A little help ID'ing roof racks.

Post by TheInterceptor » Sat Jan 08, 2011 7:31 pm

Hey all, long story short im looking for some roof racks for the soob.
I came across this on ebay.

http://cgi.ebay.com.au/subaru-roof-rack ... 4aa797107e

Does anybody know what model they're from and/or what model they fit? Also if anyone knows what sorta weight they can carry? That would be brilliant.

Cheers :-D

+1 for the Gen1 Liberty and weight would depend on how it's placed but when these model/types are new they aren't designed to carry much.. when they get older the ends get very brittle and I wouldn't put too much more than a surfboard or fishing rod up there.
You know you are getting old when the candles on your birthday cake start to cost more than the cake itself.
