Expedition roof rack

Are the roof track systems on the RRS and the D3/4 the same distance apart along the length of the vehicle?. Seen a rack that I’m interested in but don’t want to jump before checking this out, many thanks Andy.

So are you asking if a sport rack will fit on a D4 or a D4 rack fit on a sport? 2003 BMW M5 - 5 Litres of V8 Optimax Slurping Goodness in Carbon Black

Remember the RRS roof is basically flat where the Disco roof is stepped and had 3 rack variations - a long one where the mounts take into account the stepped roof, a short one for the front section of the roof and a medium length one for the rear section - likewise there are variation in the track - long and short.

If you have a rack that will fit a RRS then the mounts should take be adjustable to fit. 07MY RRS TDV6

Sorry that was not clear at all, will a D3 long rack fit onto the RRS ?. The mounting brackets fit into the track system my concern is are the the two vehicles the same width from side to side..

Im going to say no as Disco 4 genuine roof bars wont fit because they are to wide, even though the track you are talking about looks the same. I tried this many moons ago when i first got my sport. Also a D3/4 roof is alot longer than a Sport roof. Are you looking for an Expo rack for your sport? Thumbs Up 2003 BMW M5 - 5 Litres of V8 Optimax Slurping Goodness in Carbon Black

That was my thought so let it go, there seems to be a steady flow of D3 racks coming through various market places but not many RRS ones at all. I'm at the point where i would consider buying another Front Runner rack but they do not list one for the RRS.

Thanks for that and only 25 miles away only one problem, I thought I had it Β£350 to see what would happen but must have hit Β£320 by mistake. Then Β£320 comes up as winning bid great I thought only to find out someone else had bid Β£320 before me so they win it. The hunt goes on.

I agree with you Auto, i'm just looking at the feet on the D3/4 rack as they seem more adjustable and still use the T track system that's on the sport. I've had a couple of F/R racks and they are expensive but good quality and they were always willing to help, 2 years ago their Euro base was in Belgium and i was close by one afternoon so decided to pop in, gave them my name and they looked on computer and it was like a lost old friend found. Tour of the shop with coffee and then a tour of the warehouse and shown new goodies that were coming out,money spent with free shipping to home arranged for when i got back off holiday. Based in Hanover now i see so trip to Germany to see the Black forest again may be. Rolling Eyes
