Hey is there anyone on here thats into offroad?

I want to add a roof basket to my Honda Element, and am looking for an affordable option.

Thule and Yakima are crazy expensive for some welded steel. What are some cheaper alternatives?

 

No suggestions by anyone?

 

I have the Yakima load warrior, it fits my Jeep and my Suby, yea its a little $$$ but well worth it in its quality.Plus you can mount anything to it, bike racks, wheels, lights etc.Look on craigslist for a used one or go to the swap meet, I see em all the time.

 

Same here - I have a Loadwarrior with an extension that I grabbed cheap (ish) on CL.



They really are still good value for money.

Okie's in the hizzy!

 

damn you two!! Im trying to convince myself to buy something cheaper but those load warriors are SICK!!!

 

this is something i picked up around 2001. from the rack store (a chain of stores in the bay area that specializes in roof racks and stuff).

i think it was around $200 then.

 

there's one on CL for $175 NIB

 

he already sold the one on craigslist

 

Did you check Rack n' Road?

 

is that a website? Im new to this "off-road" / "safari" vehicle thing. Its intruiging, but i know nothing about it.

 

It's a store that sells racks. All kinds of racks. If you can't find the Yakima Load Warrior for a deal I have one in stock. Just in case.

 

pming you

 

Try Rack and Road. They sell Used Yakima/Thule stuff. They might have a used Loadwarrior.

Or try Etrailer.com

Megawarrior.

 

I used to run a Con-fer rack on my Cherokee...was used mainly for hockey equipment, but I had a high-lift and a shovel mounted on the side and it was great for carrying off-road accesories....plus when we got really bored we attached lemon/potato launchers to the side and had somebody lay in the basket to fire them while mudding....kinda fun...
Edit: it is really easy to install, bolt on-bolt off etc. So easy a girl can do it!
I have to check and see which racks we run on the CJ's now cause they are sweet too!

Kind of a bad pic...
