Roof cargo platform for Jimny.

I accedently built a roof platform that is to heavy for the Jimny.
50kg in total with the front box loaded up with gear.

The working lights and the compressor are remote controlled.

Maybe I have to acquire a vehicle with greater roof load capacity.

Looks good though

Looks great, think your bordering on a rage rover :whistle: :whistle:

Thanks.

The compressor can easily be demounted if the 10 meter airhose is not enough.

What a great piece of kit you have put together! Looks great.

As you say, seems a little heavy for a Jimny roof... I think it's the same as my rack and tent!

I'll be attempting to put my air compressor under the bonnet out the way I think...

I would agree, there is a lot of heavy stuff inside the boxes. I would probably move all heavy things lower into the car and I would definitely get a roof rack or roof bars that are directly bolted to the roof. I would not trust at all the original roof attachments, even with less load. They are made of plastic and if you go on uneven terrain there are quite some forces to the roof rack.

I know of roof top tents (not Jimny) that came loose with just two properly mounted roof bars, and you will see that the real off road roof top tents or roof racks do have at least three mountings on each side if not four.
