Does anyone know of a "cheap" roof rack ? The ones i've seen are around $2000. I didnt know i was this cheap , but that seems like alot. I only need it for a one week expedition. Thanks , need one before July 15th. THanks Doug

Bite your lip, open the wallet and go with a GOBI. Its the best accessory I have ever put on a car. Looks great, is very functional, and is made well. You will want to use it more than just for one trip. I now find myself offering to haul stuff for people just to utilize my rack

Yakima makes a small one.

Thanks , they do look more affordable. But i think i am going to build one. I need to put two kids four wheelers, three mini bikes , and one adult four wheeler someplace . Obiviously not all on the roof , but i need a big rack. I think i'll build one that stretches from the back all the way to the front of the h2 and support it with square tube coming up from the front receiver hitch. I would like to buy one more crossover bar for the top if anyone has one for sale. - Doug

GOBI is the best! If you can buy H2 you can aford a GOBI!

WOW! Sounds like you need a pickup! Go to your dealer and ask if they have an exta crossover bar off a wreck. Sometimes they'll give it to you, and don't forget to ask for the key. Good luck with the rack. Sounds HUGE!

Here is a Link to Surco Roof Basket. They are very easy to put togather and install on your Hummer. They will fit right into on your cross bars on the roof.

Here is a picture of my Hummer with a Surco Basket on it.

Also the Basket are light weight.

Thanks everyone. But i'm goin out to the scrap pile to see what i can find. I take pics as i'm building it. It should be wicked rednecky.

Heres some metal grate , 3' x 13' might work if not to heavy.

I got my from Wilderness Accessories. $699.00. Stron and works well. They have tire carrier hardware as well as shovel/Hi-Lift mounting brackets.

Woah whats up with Frank is he always that friendly?

Unfortunately, there are tons of "super friendly" folks on this forum. DRTY will call you a fag, PARAGON will call you ****ing stupid, and I'm sure I've left out some others who have great personalities....

You might go to the hardware store and buy what is called "spring steel." I used pieces to fabricate a mounting system for my old Land Crusher....
