Who told you that it won't fit? I would have thought that it would fit fine.
Certainly the (very similar) Patriot rack is the same regardless of model. I have a full-length Patriot on my DC that came off a SW. With the Patriot all the mounting hardware is interchangable, and assuming that the Hannibal is similar parts are available I would have thought if you bought two extra pairs of gutter-mount legs to use at the rear it would be fine. I don't understand Sparkylee's comment that the legs are different lengths on the DC and SW - they are certainly the same on the Patriot rack, and the roof height is the same on a DC and SW, so why would the legs be different? |

It's the length of the bars that are shorter on the DC one compared to the SW as they only reach over the 2 doors not the height that differs
But yes I've always thought if I change from DC to a SW I'd keep my rack It's good to be back from the dark side DC110 -2012 Black with black hood and black x-tech FFRR 4.2 vogue Renault traffic auto PT crusier convertible Laika x700 Motorhome |

Ah, OK, I understand now!
On the Patriot rack for an SW, there are four leg assemblies, each consisting of two actual legs attaches to a long bar which sits in the gutter, ie, two assmblies (four legs) per side. The DC standard version has two leg assemblies (one eash side), each assembly consisting of 3 actual legs attached to an even longer bar to sit in the gutter. On my conversion, after discussion with Patriot, I have SW front legs and a single individual leg on each side, which works just fine. On that basis it should be possible to fit a Hannibal DC rack to an SW, provided that you don't mind muying some extra legs and don't mind the result being non-standard. Thanks for the extra info, Sparky! |

If the Hannibal rack has twin ladders supporting the rear then won't the offside one foul the spare wheel if it's on the door? I guess it would work without the spare there, but that'd be pretty unusual, so that's probably the basis of being told it won't fit. Darren
