    Instead of legs, I would weld a deeper RHS or angle across the width next to the existing beam to stop the deflection. This leaves all the underside clear to store stuff.

      So much for getting a set of legs. Will need to have a go at making a set from memory. The part I can not picture it how they attach to the rack. Anyone want to share a pic?
      What website are you trying to get too?? I am on the site right now (try using IE) I have John's number if you want me to PM it to you (it was answered by messagebank)

      I got this off their website gallery

        Had thought of this but wouldn't be able to go deeper as some of the items I fit under it just fit now so any lose of height would be no good at this stage. But stil thanks for the the idea.

          I have no idea what I was doing wrong but just tried the web site again and it all worked. It must have been a case of operator error. I will give John a call tomorrow and see how I go.

            With all this getting ready for the 2012 GTG, I thought I would show you what I have added to my rack to get ready.

            The fridge slide has been on since day one but have just added a bracket to secure a couple of extra boxes to the rack.




            I have a couple of legs coming to support this when we are away. It doesn't bend but does get a bounce up when off road.

              For those who would like to know what the support legs look like close up, here is a picture.

                I have had a PM asking how I have held my fridge slide to the rack so thought I would just post the pictures up here.



                As you can hopefully see I have just flat steel spanning the mesh to take the load and bolts with nyloc nuts to secure everything.



                The front left corner is mounted directly through the frame. This was so the slide can sit as far to the left as possible.

                  I use the boxes from Woolworths they just fit under the shelf with the rubber mat installed there is a pick of the boot loaded up in my post today in trip reports. You can fit the ARB compressor in a box and two of these boxes in on one side of the boot.

                    Hi Michael

                    I am about to buy a second row fridge mount and just wanted to confirm that the 47lt ARB fridge does mount without any modification to the Lifestyle mount? Also does the door open all the way in the second row without hitting the roof?

                    Cheers Brett.

We have subsequently bought the 2nd row fridge mount and it works a treat. Better for fridge and access as long as you have passenger room IMO.

                      Hi All,

                      John, from Lifestyle racks has stopped making these, because demand dropped off. Is anyone interested in getting one made? Maybe if we get enough numbers, he will do another batch. Failing that, does anyone have a rack for sale. These are a great rack, easy to put in and out. I had one on a previous Prado.

                      Cheers
                      Geoff
