Just brought a full length ARB roof rack, but it had no mount so I have ended up with mounts of a troopy, the only issue is they sit a lot taller, I was just wondering how high u guys run your roof rack before I start cutting n modifying the mounts!
Give it a good 2"/50 clearance from top of the roof, should be heaps, maybe up to 60mm
you'll see what looks right. not too high or low so it'll flex. IMO
04 ST 3lt auto, not enough Mods to keep me happy, but getting there
Just had a measure from the roof to the bottom of the rack. Mine sits 80 mm - 90 mm off the roof and little higher at the front due to the slope of the roof. I assume my mounts are genuine ARB as the GU came with the rack fitted. Cheers.
I'll have a look at mine tomorrow morning and let you know, off GU8.
