Something I’m over the moon about with the Front Runner roof rack I recently installed on my FJ Cruiser is just how many accessories there are to suit it. I’m not just talking about tie-down points, which are still great to have; no, I’m going way further than that.
This Front Runner gear carries my swag and occasionally a kayak, is responsible for my shelter thanks to the Front Runner awning mounts that bolted up perfectly to my Darche 2.5 x 2.5m awning, and I’ve also fitted up a 40-inch LED lightbar on the front of the roof rack using a pair of Front Runner mounts. Those who have driven an FJ Cruiser will know how rubbish the factory headlights are, so additional lighting was mandatory.
It doesn’t end there; I also selected the Front Runner stainless steel prep table, which is not only one of the highest quality camp tables I’ve ever used, but it slides underneath the roof rack when stored, making use of otherwise completely wasted space. Front Runner now also takes care of my cooking duties, thanks to the slick-looking spare tyre barbecue plate I christened on a recent trip to Pebbly Beach on the NSW mid-north coast.
