Roof rack required for Ford Everest

[StevieAus]

Hi I am looking for recommendations for a good quality  roof rack for the current model Ford Everest Titanium preferably in Chiang Mai but elsewhere in Thailand if they will ship.

The problem I have experienced is that the dealers I have visited locally ( Fang) have the racks but not the correct securing brackets

Thanks in advance 

Stephen

Do Ford have this accessory for your ride...?

From the Ford Thailand Website it would appear that they don't.

 

You can get mats, a snorkel, a towbar and ball, etc... but apparently not a roof rack.

Hmmm, nothing for it to hang on too, or it would be "dodgy" to try a "fix"...

Try asking on Ford Forums Australia. Maybe someone has come up with a fix but as TA says not exactly a surfeit of places to attach.

Give you some ideas. Can't buy here - study the mounting system, print out, take to Thai Fab shop.

I asked years ago why the Thais don't use roof racks and was much mocked. 

No have.

Try this assessory shop in Chiang Mai https://www.google.co.th/maps/place/หจก.เรืองชัยยนต์/@18.772626,99.0270898,18z/data=!4m5!3m4!1s0x0:0xfb3efa8a8424eb47!8m2!3d18.7739212!4d99.027653?hl=en

There is a shop on the left of 108 going "south" that seems to have racks/accessories & a Thule sign.....It's a fairly large building....Not too far from Airport Plaza.....

 

Question - is that aluminum bodied (roofed)? There might be a good reason why they don't make it available.....

If that is the Carryboy dealer. with a very tall sign with the 2 chevrons on it, be aware that his prices are outrageous. Asked him if he had the tape to seal canopies onto pickup truck boxes, he said sure. Would install for 3000 baht !! And I buy the tape 555

Seems like Thule can fit a roofbox, so no reason why they can't fit a roofrack :)

 

Shop name is D2 Autorack in Bangkok. They ship to Chiangmai.
