safari roof rack question - 6/30/2008 12:07:33 PM    Drifter666   Posts: 31 Joined: 5/4/2008 Status: offline ok i know a few of you have thos surco roof racks that attach to the lugage rack, my only beef with thos are that they dont cover your entire roof, they stop above the back doors, my question is does anyone know of a roof rack that you can buy for the 1st gen blazers that goes all the way to the top of the winshield? _____________________________ Bags Are For Groceries Post #: 1
