Mercedes and VW Crafters had the same roof shape until 2017, when VW began manufacturing bodies at its factory and made minor, non-immediately noticeable changes. VW vehicles built after 2017 have curved roofs and require a different solution. If in doubt, contact us
Fitting method
The side rails are bonded in situ using high-quality, modern urethane products similar to those used to construct motorhome bodies.
Stainless steel tech screws are sometimes used, but only to anchor the roof rack in place while the urethane sets.
Our roof racks are popular with motorhomes and camper vans built on standard commercial panel vans. We use the same mounting method on the roofs of these vans, with excellent results.
Our racks can carry heavy loads if the heavy-duty tube is used. As a bonus, we can fit a wall-mount awning to the side, and we have various attachments available as extras. Please look at the images and contact us if you have specific items you want to carry and need a solution. Our innovative team will come up with a solution, no doubt.
