Jogn does this roller come over the back of that van? I have the 3 bars there I need something so I can grab ladder without hitting the roof at back on way down.

This stainless steel full width roller is mounted on pre galvaized steel channels attached to the rear and middle roof brackets to provide maximum ridgidity.The channels are slotted to provide some adjustment of the roller position.The roller is running in nylon bearings for a smooth rotation.

They will come with the correct roller length for your roof bars, If ordered at the same time.

All fittings are included.

Fitting time approximatly 20 mins

Hi ww,
I couldn't help laughting either it was like something out of one foot in the grave- but I did feel giulty because I wouldn't have liked it and my missus would have hit the roof. When I started she only let me advertise my mobile number. She thought other wc would phone up and threaten me.

My roof rack(with a roller) was £200 from a firm in Nuneaton Roofrack.co.uk I think. I don't know if they do the rollers seperately
