other Roof Rack For 75'

[adrift]

Im looking to put a roof rack on my 75' 02 so that I can roof my surfboard(s). I found this online but Im not totally sure it will fit.

Ideally I'd like something similar to that that can easily come off the car. Definitely not looking for something that requires any permanent installation. Any suggestions? 02 surfers on this forum - what do you use? Thanks!

THULE or Yakama systems just clamp on and off quickly

to the rain gutter

 

you add the type of carrier you need to the base cross bars.

 

in my case you see a basket mounted to the base cross bars

 

google THULE

Those should work, SportRack is actually a company owned by Thule.

Do you know the model name of the THULE rack you have? Thanks.

get soft racks they move from car to car and from car to trunk. Block surfing products makes some that fit everything,,,,,even goofy 3wheeled cars in Indonesia

I know this will probably be WAY more than what you need, but these are gorgeous surf board racks:

I have one of his racks and the quality and craftsmanship is incredible... albeit at a price point to match!

For Thule, you need the 300 feet for rain gutters.  Search ebay, I see them all the time.  There's two versions, 1 that is taller than the other.  The taller ones are for vehicles like the Land Rover Discovery, old Land Cruisers etc.  For our 02s, the shorter version is fine.  I have both, the taller ones given to me last summer by a friend w/ a Land crusier.  Make sure you buy them with locks b/c they are not made anymore for those old style knobs and Thule doesn't make the keys for them too.  I checked this with Thule b/c my friend's dad lost the keys.  How they got the rack off is beyond me.

I got  a thule rack off of craigslist.. the feet were $30 for 4.. They fit perfectly.  My wife cracked up when she saw the car, but it worked!

I use the Thule 300 on mine, but need a fairing. (oh, and now a head gasket, but that's another story...)
