Coleman Safari Rack (Look)

I am about to order one. They are 60 bucks at costco and are normally $204 if you get them from coleman. And shipping isn't to much from costco either. So if you are looking for a cheap roof rack, here one is. Oh, and it the exact same size as the yakima one. Here is the link

right out of the box, yes it does. it will fill a little over half of your roof and the mounts fit perfect (if you have the factory cross bars).

Hey Conner, let me know how mounting those lights go cause I want to do some, just a little hesitant about drilling through my bumper. I am trying to find a way around but haven't yet.

will do.... i have talked a couple other guys on here that have done it and they put a metal plate beneath the bumper as a backing to give it more support.... if all else fails you can buy another bumper off ebay for like $50

I have not been able to find any but I haven't really looked to hard. Do you think the Yakima ones will work or do you know where you can get some?

I just ordered one. It will be my first non-stock item (aside from my Flowmaster Exhaust)

How would I go about mounting lights on this? And where would be the best spot to put it on the GC? Front, Middle, or Back of the roof.

I've had one on my XJ for awhile. There are a bunch of guys that are building extensions on it as well. I enjoy mine.

I was looking around and it appears it comes with hand fasteners Do you know what size bolts I can replace them with? Those hand fasteners make it real easy to steal.

If somebody wanted it bad enough they would just rip the rails off.
