I know, @moomin-j 's fault, I was all for spending £29 on a potential fire hazard...

Alternatively, you could fit it to Van Guard Ulti Bars. Worked for me. I too did not wish to drill holes in the van and glue on brackets.Fantastic looking van! Do you mind telling me what roof rack that is? I bought a Fiamma F45s for my 4Motion Caravelle, which arrived today; unfortunately, I didn't read the description properly, and it turns out it needs to be fixed in place with SilkaFlex, which makes it pretty much a permanent feature of the van. I'd planned to add a roof rack in the near future, but may have to accelerate that purchase so I can use my new awning
But if the spacing is wrong it can be a FAIL.
Must get round to doing this.
Try it when loaded with beer! You might need an up-plate!
Thats why I got it weighed. Good to know know how much leeway before my next Euro trip.
I will get it weighed again prior to Camperjam, when it loaded up up for camping.
What do you need to do to get up plated Wayne?
I’m fitting big T32 discs and calipers and hopefully about to get my suspension done.
Think I must be close if not over my T28 limit
Wait until you've been to CRS, then it's a paper exercise, £276 later I now have a T31, others have a T31.5. SVR tech or Van Weight Engineering will see you right!
Hopefully nothing other than some paperwork and about £275. My T28 was up plated to 3150kg on paperwork alone. Drop Dee a message at Van Weight Engineering

- I just need the van back from its warranty work so I can get it all fitted
Thanks guys.
Will wait until my suspension is done and I’ve fitted my big calipers and Nutexa grooved and drilled discs and pads all round
Can’t wait.
I’m going to spray the calipers Kawasaki green before fitting them.

Just take your time unscrewing the allen bolt things from the holes in the roof. They are made of some weird german cheese!Van Guard bars and Fiamma adapters have been delivered today

Forever solar panel received this morning, Victron 270 watt rigid, £147 from a place in Tewkesbury, I believe they have now put the price up. Not quite in the 'big boys 300 watt club', but enough for little me!
Too big and too well wrapped to photograph!
Any offers on a 220 watt Renogy suitcase style solar array, never used in action, only on the drive to keep things topped up and running happily. Excellent if you don't want things stuck to your lid! 50 Ah input today, 650 Wh, 13.1 max Amps.
