Help needed - plywood base for Landrover OEM Expedition rack
Hi,

Does anyone know if the Safety Devices plywood base works on the Land Rover Expedition rack? If not, does anyone know of anyone else who makes these?

Thanks

Mark

You could use trailer flooring. Something like this: https://www.hm-wood-shop.co.uk/shop/trailer-flooring-1363c1.html

Or just buy some ply and paint with Tekton or similar. WARNING.

Another potential option

I would think the 12mm stokbord would do the trick.. if not the 18mm would.

I was thinking of the 18mm as a replacement trailer floor. If its completely rot proof and can stand a cow bashing or chewing it then it’s going to be tough and last.

Just need a good price for delivery of a single sheet.

I've only seen stockboard whilst shopping at Mole Valley so I'm no expert but i think you would have to check the thickness in person. The thick stuff is pretty heavy and the thin may be too bendy. WARNING.

Surely it's just Buffalo board with a big markup? Laughing

Buy some sheets, jigsaw and paint the edges and away you go. Ed
