stargazer9999 Posted February 2, 2022 Share Posted February 2, 2022 I'm trying to find a roof rack that is probably a little larger than the ones I usually see around town. I believe those may be about 1 1/2 meters long. This is for a mini-van. I would like a 2 meter long roof rack with no enclosures or fancy features needed. I don't need a Thule or anything high-end. Just a boring rack on top that hopefully I can attach without drilling screws holes. Are there any places here or should I try to order from BKK? I see many choices online down there. Thanks.

pgrahmm Posted February 2, 2022 Share Posted February 2, 2022 Check Daeng's off Mahidol Rd....Turn in at the red & white Ricoh sign.... It's a shop that handles, mods, welds, fabricates, everything automotive....Up to, and including custom built big motorcycles.... They have racks in stock + can order for you...Or build as needed.... It's a great resource once you learn/see all that they do....Most things can be done while you wait... At least one gal at the desk speaks English as do some head techs.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's about a 10 minute walk away from Airport Plaza.... I've only heard it referred to as Daeng's..... He is supposed to have a 2nd shop somewhere else, but I'm just familiar with this one ....

captainjackS Posted February 3, 2022 Share Posted February 3, 2022 (edited) I had good experience with this shop. Its on the superhighway East side of the road just south of Don Chan intersection. (Near Boonthavorn tile mega shop) Choon Silp ร้าน ชุนศิลป์ https://maps.app.goo.gl/dcYoaRawu1RriVS36 They sell Carryboy brand. I bought roof rails for my Isuzu pickup. The guys installed it nicely. I noticed they were doing much more complicated custom vans and trucks in the workshop, so they should have the tools and skills to do whatever you need at a reasonable price. They also have a huge stock of random spare parts from years of building trucks and vans. So, if the standard mounting hardware that comes with a branded kit doesn't quite fit your vehicle, they will find screws / mounting plates / whatever to make it fit.

grin Posted February 3, 2022 Share Posted February 3, 2022 My stepson had a nice custom rack built for his motorcycle there and for what I thought was a reasonable price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
