[xj40] XJ40 Roof racks

Date: Wed, 3 Dec 2003 17:56:33 +0100
Hi G Loader
I have used a Yakima ski/bike rack with the
cross-members designed for cars, (like an XJ40) with
rain channels along the roofline. It works very
well,
although you will get a LOT of wind noise that
silent
jags usually never produce. Also, not many XJ40’s
are driving around with roof racks, so you’re liable
to> get a double-take or two from other motorists

Its that time of year again. When you live in the
north you might
as well enjoy winter. In that vein, does anyone
have
recomendations on what ski racks work best on the
XJ40? My last 3
vehicles have either been hatch-backs or trucks and
I
have not had
to put my skis on a rack for a couple of decades.
