bullfrog roofrack
landroverkeith:
looks mighty fine there m8 :)
though how did u mount the jack on the side of the rack ? any pics ?
bullfrog:
Thanks there chaps.
I aim to please.
The jack is held on with 14mm bolts with a pair of spacers I had (aprx 1") than a nylock, washer and large wing nut. This is tweaked with adjustable and a hole was drilled or a small padlock.
A 90 is narower than a disco so the legs need re welding at a slight angle.
We also moved the legs as they were spaced to leave the alpine windows clear on a 90. I prefered a more equal look.
It sat very close to the rear subroof so we removed and rewelded a section to leave that clear. we decided it would not need boarding although denviks may add side runners at some stage to offer a walking area whilst leaving the main area clear.
I also rermoved the ladder mounts as these are not needed on the disco.
We re-used them as mounts for the rear work lights chosen as they matched the fronts and sat within the rack offering them some protection.
I am happy to make them from scratch in tube or box for most vehicles .
light, jack, wheel mounts can be added to suit. :)
Bigfoot:

--- Quote from: "Jake" ---Looks nice Denviks
Your disco is looking great these days.
Although seems to be lacking in MC stickers :wink:
Bullfrog appears to be getting a good reputation on here for great work and good service.

thanks mate.......its taken about a year to get her to this stage now :shock: . there is a mud club sticker on the truck at the moment. just finding space for more at the moment is getting hard :wink: . trying to make her look good while not over doing it is the key i think....although some may say she looks over done already :lol: .
i cant say enough good things about martins aka bullfrogs work .... he does a brilliant job. im more than happy with the new rack. i couldnt have done it myself and definatly not to this standard. 8) 8)
