Regarding MK3 owners, should there be an interest in a mk3 version of some of our SZ products, a rack being a good example, we will make any product mk3 specific within our bespoke program but if 5 mk3 owners order that product we will produce it as standard.

Many thanks

Whats the hold up fella's??

Just read all of this and I'm impressed.

I'm on the waiting list for a Gen 4 (a bit like waiting for a hip replacement!).

Putting in my 'two-penny-worth', I would be interested in a roof rack - but a small, light one - which may or may not echo with what other members are looking for.

I understand that the maximum roof load for the new Jimny is 30kg - which is, presumably, for everything, rack and contents. As a fisherman I would propose to put a couple of roll-top waterproof stuff-sacks on the roof, filled with waders, rain jackets extra clothing - that sort of thing i.e. lightweight and 'compressible'. I would hold it on with bungee cords - so a mesh base to the rack would be most flexible and ideal.

It may be impracticable, but an alloy rack frame with an insert light steel mesh could meet all my needs - and not compromise the roof loading.

Please feel free to tell me I am talking rubbish. It wouldn't stop me buying your products!

You sure about that? Earlier questions on the forum suggest 70-75Kg.

Thanks TaterTot - I'd missed the earlier forum discussion on that.

I was basing my comment on the Suzuki UK Gen 4 Accessory List.

www.reedx.net/temp/20181212_suzuki_jimny_uk_accessory_list.pdf

This quotes "Maximum roof load capacity 30kg" for the roof bars and Suzuki roof rack, and " Maximum vertical load 75kg" for the rear door mounted bicycle rack.

Of course, this may just be for these specific products - but it seems odd that Suzuki UK would offer products with significantly less loading capacity than the vehicle will tolerate.

I don't know - and look forward to clarification.

Thanks for raising it.

Look at that. Well that is a major bummer for me. 30Kg is just not enough.

I was of the impression that this was referring to the max load limit that the relatively thin roof bars themselves would safely withstand, not the max load that the roof is actually capable of taking. If 30kg was the maximum load then all these superb and tremendously expensive powder coated framed roof racks from the likes of Frontrunner and K9 would be rendered useless because they physically weigh around 25kg unloaded. In fact, when the load is distributed via six or eight strong gutter brackets the maximum loading should be high enough to withstand a two-person roof tent platform . . at least I would hope so.
