Rear Cargo Rack D90 ( Hardtop)

New project / mod for the rear Cargo space, if you search for a cargo rack in the rear many examples are shown for Jeeps.
To make the cargo room more versitile we have to move up.
Looking for the mounting points I think under the windowframe there is a good and steady formed metal ridge to mount on.

Did some testing with my Bestop Cargo Rack Tray

Here is shown at 53 cm height, so at least I can slide my ARB fridge under it.

The mounting plates left and right need to be in an angle, for example :

Any thoughts, comments, etc. are welcome ! No Mud flaps for my 90.!

Looks good, definitely go for it

I've seen them when i have been in the States and really liked the idea so i designed my own version for the back of my HT 90.

The tray has mounts bolted to the tub and is held in by a spring bolt in each corner. This means it is very easily removed when i need the full space back.

It has two grey Euro boxes underneath but was originally designed to have the spare wheel under it when i was competing. Having the spare over the rear axle stopped the pendulum effect when transitioning from a muddy track to 90 degree turn onto tarmac.

The inner dimensions will carry two Really Useful Boxes side by side or four stacked and held in place by the cargo net.

Also when competing or simply going away for the weekend then the tray is used to separate items to keep personal gear up higher and kept clean.

Its one of my favourite mods.

Picking up this project.

First I needed to make sturdy brackets / attachpoints.
Bracket formed and mounted with self-tapping screws and PU body kit

Bought on Amazon an Interior Cargo Rack ( not my first choice, first post above shows the Body Armor 4x4)

Now I have to make another extended mounting bracket and little cutting in the edges.

To be continued.. No Mud flaps for my 90.!
