ARB vs Tradesman Oval Roof racks

[rptdprado Member Find all posts View Profile Close rptdprado]

Hi Guys,

I'm looking at getting a new roof rack for the Prado. I have had the ARB steel rack in the past, very solid but very heavy and a bit too high profile. Does anyone have any photos of the ARB Alloy or the Tradesman Oval rack fitted on the 150. What concerns me also is the fitment of the rail underneath the rack, seems to be a long solid bracket on the ARB rack ?

cheers

Someone posted only a few days ago about the Tradesman Oval being fitted to their 150. Had photos and all. How about you use the new function called "Search". On wait that's not new is it! Sorry if you think I'm being hard but it's just stupid to post lots of meaningless little threads everywhere. Rather than starting a new thread that is directly related to an existing see if there is an existing one first and add the the knowledge in that thread. That way the next person who is after similar information can find it all together rather than twenty different posts all with next to no info.

I had the ARB tradesman with the open front and rear on my 100series. Really impressed with it and the profile was very low.
