seeanew Posted June 26, 2007 Share Posted June 26, 2007 I have an 86 hatchback that runs very well, gets amazing mileage, and is a real workhorse. I need a roof rack that is strong, as large as possible, and will work with no rain gutters. Any suggestions or help? Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xeryon Posted June 26, 2007 Share Posted June 26, 2007 I have seen ones on cars that clamp onto the roof itself and have hooks that wrap around the inside of the door frame. it allows you to open and close the door just fine cause the clamps are flush with the weather stripping.

Kastigir Posted June 27, 2007 Share Posted June 27, 2007 They're expensive but Yakima is the premier maker of roof racks on cars that have no rain gutters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Go to yakima.com and enter your car, model, year, and you'll see what you'll need for a rack system. I have an HX that can carry 2 bikes and a kayak. Thule is the other major rack maker, but their kit does NOT fit coupes and hatchbacks as well as the Yakima system does. HXville Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
