[@downundermtb4744]

Looking at one of these for my classic canopy so I can swing a 270 awning and a panel from. Nice setup 👍

[@roypowell3450]

Great info nice to know what ARB stands for more Aussie trivia I have!! In lockdown again here :( so we will enjoy looking some of your older vids...Take care. Roy & Cheryl UK

[@TripInAVan]

Cheers guys, stay safe hey 🍺

[@EsamKabliPhotography]

amazing👌 can i know if you please how the output of the light bar at night? some info points that it is not that powerfull light!! Thanks

[@thebuddymoon]

The landcruiser is looking GREAT :)

[@TripInAVan]

love it hey

[@AseanNomad]

Nice vid Justin, just wondering what solar panel that one is and would you recommend it over a solid panel?

[@TripInAVan]

It’s a 135watt rad power. Works a treat, heaps lighter than a glass panel

[@AseanNomad]

Thanks for that

[@ndirangugichuki6260]

That ARB trivia was interesting, always wanted to know what the initials meant, thanks for the info.

[@TripInAVan]

No dramas 👊

[@Sabumnim666]

With all these mods and add ons to the cruiser just what is the the Gross vehicle weight? At 2900kg that is tanks full and no bull bar etc even without the caravan ball weight you must be well over the limit for a standard cruiser, considering the GVM is only 3350Kg

[@ianneill1400]

How is it now 18 months down the track??

[@aaronkopanica2960]

G'day mate. Can you tell me what the mounts are called that you used for the side work lights? I'm ordering this rack and want to make sure I get a couple of these. They don't appear to have work light specific mounts. These look great though.

[@darebingas5728]

Tell me more about your light bar mate? What brand is it?

[@TripInAVan]

It’s the arb light bar developed to fit the base rack👌

[@brodyjarrett815]

Gday, what is the overall height from roof to top of platform. I have been to arb they don’t have any mounts to check for me 😝 joys of height restrictions. Ps. enjoy tinav on a lazy Sunday night.

[@keithatkinson1989]

Hi guys been watching you utube since started touring question. The solar panel you have on your new arb rack could you tell me the wattage and where to get one as I've been looking for a low profile white panel but everyone seems to mack black ones Regads Keith

[@TripInAVan]

Cheers mate, it’s a rad power 135watt panel. I got it from Pro Touring Concepts who built the ute💪

[@lewiev7560]

What’s the arb light bar like?

[@ianneill1400]

How is it attached to the Roof?

[@TripInAVan]

Bolted to the original roof rail mounts

[@michaelsalpietro8618]

central mount antenna doesn't look to happy, reception reduction?

[@TripInAVan]

No dramas with reception. Botched out the wind deflector so the antenna sits nicely

[@kellymaggs3109]

I'm wanting to put this type of rack on my Hilux dual cab but worried about the roof getting rust from where its bolted on. What are your thoughts?

[@TripInAVan]

Nah mate, it gets sealant put around the mountings so there’s no way of increasing any chance of rust to your roof if installed properly 😎

[@trekcampfish]

What solar panel was that Justin ?

[@TripInAVan]

It’s a rad power 135 watt

[@TripInAVan]

👍👍🍺

[@peterdoyle3205]

I have a Series 200 VX on order. I am looking at what sort of roof rack to get. I am getting a GVM upgrade and I will need to be able to remove the roof rack between trips so that I can fit the car in my garage. Is the ARB rack easy to remove/ reinstall?

[@TripInAVan]

it's pretty low profile, you'll prob be ok to leave it on,.

[@peterdoyle3205]

@@TripInAVan the car will only just fit in without a roof rack as I have a low clearance garage opening (2030mm).

[@TripInAVan]

@@peterdoyle3205 it’s only a few bolts in the standard 200 mountings to remove. Not hard, but prob not something you’d wanna be doing every time you drive in and out of the garage 😎

[@GreatDustyXplorAus]

Awesome bit of gear. What solar panel are you running ??

[@TripInAVan]

It’s a rad power 135 watt👌👌

[@GreatDustyXplorAus]

@@TripInAVan thanks mate. I'll look them up

[@stevescaife1940]

What shovel is that?

[@lazzar1903]

Waiting to get one fitted to my Wildtrak, looks a better option to Rhino racks.

[@TripInAVan]

It’s a mint system hey 👌

[@schem81]

Another ripper video guys. Very informative, well done. Just wondering what solar panel you are running on the rack?

[@TripInAVan]

Cheers mate, it’s a rad power 135watt panel

[@crispyinasia61]

Hey Justin with your solar panel being partially obscured by your dinghy what effect does it have on the charging ability or it’s overall efficiency? Good vid 👍🏻

[@TripInAVan]

The panel only works properly when the tinny is off. We planned it that way as we only need the charge from it when we are parked up and fishing for the week👌👍

[@michealplater9007]

No wind noise, other then wind noise from Bec

[@TripInAVan]

Brraaaapp!!

[@TripInAVan]

💨💨💪💪😂😂

[@johndunstan7003]

She would do the best No odor farts I'm sure. A Princess you lucky man.

[@toddrowett4970]

Gonna buy one of these now mate! You’ve sold me! did you drill into the frame to run your cables through?

[@timfenwick9409]

Need the new clearview mirrors, they look mint 👌

[@WDMTAdventures]

Wakko the Dillio, well there ya go ;-)

[@tellitlikeitis1071]

Ordered my Arb base rack months ago, still unable to supply

[@TripInAVan]

Oh no!! Covid restrictions??

[@Ducksouttheredoinit]

Cool looking rack 👍 I do wonder what force rating is on the dovetail. Makes me a bit nervie. But they are producers of some very good accessories, so ..... (s’pose I’m a bit old school) and I carry some big loads on my rack as a builder. Anyway. Good vid 😉👏👏

[@justinbrown2093]

Are are the best products on the market, I've been off reading since the late 80s and all the hiluxes I have owned have had arb bullbars and side rails, can't go past arb

[@TripInAVan]

100% mate 🤙

[@isawthattwice4805]

Your still alive after your last video

[@TripInAVan]

Still kickin

[@shaneallen2710]

How do you wash your roof

[@TripInAVan]

Who needs to wash their roof? I get my roof ceramic coated when new then forget about it...

[@TripInAVan]

Who washes their roof ?? 😂😂

[@Mambey]

I think the slats are to far apart. I suppose the less slats the less weight.

[@TripInAVan]

Haven’t found that an issue hey🤙

[@kazzrich]

ARB made where? Some posts say Thailand. Very expensive. My ARB fitted roof bars tore off the roof on the Nullarbor destroying 2 swags and a fishing rod. 👎🏻

[@TripInAVan]

Bugger. Not sure where the base rack is manufactured mate sorry

[@aedanpedro4806]

Fantastic 😍💋 💝💖♥️❤️

[@TripInAVan]

Thanks champion

[@jayg1803]

Terrible wind noise from base rack.

[@TripInAVan]

We get no noise at all mate

[@eddiecharles6000]

Anyone want to be my Boyfriend 😍💋 💝💖♥️❤️
