Roof strengthening bracket/bar

My 110 has had people clambering on the roof. In the good old days I think the strengthen

ing bars were spot welded, but on Pumas like mine they are glued and some have fallen off. One has been lost so I need to replace it. It's about 90cm long and the shape is possibly called 'top hat'?

Does anyone know where I can get one please?
Cheers
Andy

Hi don't quote me on it but I'm sure you can't buy them separate why not try the people at YRM I'm sure they'll be able to get one or make one as they make top hats etc and really good stuff I purchased some bits off them a couple of weeks ago and impressed with tte quality

If YRM can't help, look for a local sheet metal fabricator. It would take minutes to make one with a guillotine and folder.

Thanks Blackwolf, YRM have already replied and they don't do them, so will try as you suggest - there may be a business opportunity here Wink 2011 2.4 White 110 CSW LHD

How long is the missing bar?
I have a damaged double cab roof which still has the bars attached.
They may not be long enough but can check for you if of interest?
