    Roof capacity of GU Wagon.

    Does anyone know what the maximum weight you could put on the roof of a GU Wagon?

    I have a 2001 if that helps.

    Try http://www.nissan.com.au/webpages/mo...l#/accessories

    I'm not sure if the weights quoted are applicable to a 2001 model, but it's a starting point.

    Let us know a price when you get one.

    Thanks for the link Ross, they mentioned 120kg maximum load.

    I'm sure you could put more on if you wanted to but thats good to know.

    120kg's is perfect for what I want to do anyways, thanks!

    200 kg, but on a 8 leg rack, be very careful over 100 kg, prone to roll over.

    Hi mate, I would think that would be a motion weight limit for sure. Nissan would cover themselves for worse case scenario situations.

    Someone else may offer better advice but I would say that there would be no "OFFICIAL" static weight limit.
