How To Install Roof Racks, Accessories & Cages
Overview
Packing your 4WD for an epic adventure doesn’t have to be limited to your internal cargo area, or mean you have to tow a trailer. With a wide range of roof storage solutions such as roof racks, roof storage boxes and 4WD accessories and more, you can easily create a setup which better suits your needs.
Roof Bars
All roof storage setups start with a set of roof rack bars. These are designed to be compatible with all vehicles, with a separate roof rack fitting kit available to match your specific model. With a little bit of assembly, these clamp onto your roof with minimal effort.
Roof bars alone are great for carrying large items such as ladders, with various accessories available such as bike carriers and more.
Accessories
For packing many smaller items, and increased mounting options for accessories; Supercheap Auto offers a variety of roof racks and roof rack accessories.
These are not vehicle specific, and mount easily to existing roof bars using simple brackets and thumb screws.
Now all your loose and lightweight gear can be thrown onto the roof and easily held in place with a cargo net or elastic straps.
Modular Platform
If you prefer a more structured approach to your setup; there are roof rack platforms and trays available with a range of accessories to keep your gear tidy and secure on your roof.
There are mounts available for high lift jacks, recovery boards, jerry cans, awnings, shovels, spare wheels, light bars and more.
All of these mounting accessories are designed with a focus on easy installation and removal of your gear, while still keeping it secure across the toughest terrain.
Having your gear organised and accessible will make for a more enjoyable experience off the beaten track, so head into Supercheap Auto and choose the setup for your next adventure.
