| Post subject: | Surco Basket |
I'm in the market for a basket. I'm going to go for the one from Surco, but I'm confused about the size. Surco recommends a 40 X 60 for a Liberty Sport. Does anyone know if it will fit a 300 6 Renegade? And how about if I go for a wider one like a 50 x 60, can I get away from using cross bars or is it going to look incredibly stupid? |

i have a 45X50 and it fits perfect it goes 45 left to right and 50 front to rear i think that any thing more will be to wide also with this rack you can order the rack for like $150 and 4 U-bolts from homedepot to connect it |

Do you have it bolted directly to the the rails with the U bolts or did you use cross bars? If possible, I want to stay away from the cross bars as they raise the whole basket 2-3 inches (sport rack system). |

Surco's rack has an integrated cross bar. So you don't need to buy any for it. What you will need are the mounts, unless you go with the U-bolts. Took me about 15 minutes to assemble and 2 minutes to mount on the KJ. http://community.webshots.com/myphotos? ... ity=jULJOi KJKev |

KJKev, I'd prefer to go with the mounts. Do think it should mount on the Renegade too, as it has thicker rails? What size is your basket, it looks like a perfect kit? |

If you are lifted, have a garage, and you want to park in the garage, check to see how high the Surco will sit on your roof. |
