Yeh, this is a Tigerz thread so lets keep it on topic if we can, and ive got a fridge thread going already if you wanna talk about whats the go in fridges.

But yeh, who cares what the badge says, as long as the beer comes out cold, its the best fridge ever made !

with a load capacity of 250kg, it will do me.

Good luck putting 250kg on the roof unless you want to turn your truck into a convertible!

X 2 ,,,250kg seems a bit high, my rack is supported by two Rhino roof racks if I use three it will support 100kg safely.
I'm sure it would carry 250kg but no way breathing would I load it up to that weight.
First bump you hit with that much weight would see some serious damage to your roof area

I think the maximum load for the roof of a Patrol is 150 kegs and that includes the rack.
Wouldn't want to turn a corner with 250kgs up top. If you hadn't already damaged the roof, you'd be laying over before you knew what had happened.

Yes, people forget they need to add the weight of the rack to the total luggage/carry load.

This is where the tigerz alloy rack shines, as it only weighs 35kg, you are then left with 100+ kg for a load.



They had a half size display alloy rack at our local display centre, it had no legs/gutter mounts bolted on it, i layed it down on the concrete floor and i stood in it (65kg), walking all around, attemting to find a nasty flex point (there wasn't one)

The powder coat also got a nasty rubbing on the concrete and so was scratched quite bad, it had not gone through to the alloy, nor had flaked off in chunks.





After seeing and feeling the demo one, id definitely not buy one for your trip around Australia, nor if you will be loading it to "capacity" every single weekend.





But, for the odd trip here and there im confident the rack will work out well (guess ill find out) ,and for lazy people like me who wish to leave the basket on the car 24/7, "only" adding a extra 35kg to the car is a bonus !


Realistically, ill mostly just shove a gazebo, or a tent (or both) up on my rack , and only when the inside/back of the car is full, so i doubt i will ever be asking it to carry a 100kg, and i foresee ill only use the rack on the odd trip anyway.

Their products are getting cheaper, the market must be tight at the moment.

Ridiculously cheap. Last week on the 4wdsupa site I saw Tigerz GU steel bullbar for $299.

They are "scratch and dent" seconds apparently. Seroiusly, if you can clear them for that price, how well are they made. I wouldnt touch one with a 40ft pole...........
