go to a junk yard.

look at any 95 or newer blazer, jimmy, bravada <-- will bolt up directly

you can also make cherokee, rodeo, explorer, passport, pathfinder, etc racks work, but you will have to do more roof work.

lastly look at things like Yakima racks for the clip-on-at-the-doors style racks (like the civic kids use to haul snow boards)

Are you wanting the factory rack or a basket like what Wolfpack is sporting on his rig?

Boo Phil! Boo!!!!

He has a rack (oem) and lights on it to prove it (checked album) so i think you are correct. He wants a safari rack or roof basket

dont' have the measurements off hand, but I have this one:

Yakimas Load Warrior w/ center extender, cargo net, and air dam. i digs it. Just need to strap lights to it and get a shovel bracket, hi-lift bracket, and spare tire attaching mount for it. ($$$)


I can measure her for you if you want...

I'm looking at the Surco safari rack with attachments.

They have an application guide you can check. I think you'll need a 45" x 60"
