Building a DIY Roof Rack for my Jimny
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
This was obviously much easier than attaching a trailer.
This was the first mod, of probably many, to my Suzuki Jimny.
the whole point was to make somthing simple, good looking, and cheap.
So it went pretty well.
Check out some of all the cool projects over at the "Seaside Garage"

Thanks a lot for watching!

Nice job, I agree with your using the rubber to protect the paint work. I really enjoy listening to your narration because your English vocabulary and pronunciation are so good. You put many native English speakers to shame (probably me included!).

In your great state, it'd probably get blown right off the road, windy as it gets at times.

Agreed. I designed my own roof rack & ladder. Both turned out much better/stronger than my favorite from ZA. Ie, not as good looking, but way stronger. And they have plenty of space for auxiliary lights front/side/rear lights
Such a great job man. Well done

We don't have those little beauties here in the US. Wish we did. All I hear is positive things, with the exception of limited cargo capacity. The roof rack looks great. You have something that looks factory.

@clooper man Thanks a lot! And no, the red and green mog's have the two differen types of transmissions that were available for them.
Den vejer vel lige så meget i sig selv, som du overhovedet må have som taglast? Men den ser godt ud.

Takker. Den vejer det samme som fx. den Aluminiums Roof-rack fra Front Runner. som mange køre med. så den er som sådan ikke specielt tung. Men jo, det bliver alligevel tæt på. efter som jimny'en ikke har en særlig høj "Tag-Rating". på kun 30- eller 40kg. (alt afhængig af hvor man spørg. der er ikke rigtig noget helt konkret, officielt tal.) Tak for kikket!
Nice project. I was surprised at the weight of the finished product. Must have used lead based paint, eh?! 😎

Thanks a lot. And i was actually positively suprised with the weight. is weighs exactly the same as the Aluminium "Front-Runner" rack, that a lot of people are running on these. And it's lighter than somthing like an ARB rack. Thanks for watching!
Ser godt ud , kan et tagtelt sætte ovenpå

Mange tak! Hmm. Det var egentlig ikke lavet med tagtelt i tankerne. men det burde nok kunne lade sig gøre. Men skulle det bruges til det, ville det nok være bedre der ikke var sider på. og det bare kun var den flade bund.

Ja det har du nok ret i .
I wish the Jimny was able to be sold here in the USA without having 25 years on them. CAFE standards need to die off. impossible to have a small gas sipping vehicle and have it still be a 4wd truck.
JImny dynamic roof cargo capacity 30 kg good luck
Suzuki has been absent from Us since roughly 2012..poor quality..dealerships lacking, and poor safety records and sense that the vehicles were 'cheap'..shame that they could not improve upon these short comings ..anyway..good to see you again, and always enjoy your videos..hope to see spring time that will allow more content..

Suzuki has actually come a long way in the last 10-15 years. and, at least in the european market, they are generally considered as "good value for the money" as they are economical, comftable, reasonably reliable, and fairly priced. Although, a lot of their models have just been incredibly booring. Thanks for watching!
