I was wondering is it possible to get a Roof Rack and ladder for the 5 Dr Freelander since thinking it would make a good high platform when shooting.

Wonder if they are strong enough to board out and hold my weight?

SES88 makes ladders that mount on the spare wheel assy.

The roof is able to accept a dynamic load of is it 75 or 100kg. But that is when moving. When stationary that is up to you

I've got a single ladder left, unless you're after a ladder similar to what they have on roof tents?! As for a rack there are many available!

I'd buy one of SES88's ladders for sure.

I have one, they're very well made and allow you to climb on the roof to get the cat back down.

Cat goes in the exhaust system, the roof is the wrong place

Rack can handle a lot My weight is about 90 kg's

This type of rack is about 800 for second hand in good shape and 2000 for new one (if able to find any more)

This Hippo is VERY tastefully set up. Exactly what my wife wants for hers.
