Removable safari rack

[KCcarguy]

Hey fellas. I'm looking for a removable safari rack. As much as I like the permanent ones, I'd like to be able to have the standard luggage rack when I need it as well. I've looked at the popular Yakima and Thule models....pretty pricey. Anyone have any experience with them?

I also noticed a nicely priced one from Curt. Anyone used this? Any other recommendations?

Anyone know what brand this rack is?

That is a Confer rack. I have a Confer half rack that I extended into a full rack. Got it for 40 bucks from a guy that has nothing but Toyotas up in Asheville.

Check out the rola rack. Will serve your needs and is cheaper.

Thanks for the suggestion. Any personal experience with them? I'd like something strong enough to carry a spare tire and maybe a hi-lift.

i got mine pretty cheap around 170 shipped. so far so good been through couple weeks of rain, no rust issues. but i did take up all the openings with electrical tape so that might've helped, as far as weight goes a 33" spare with gas can and hi lift should be A okay. they feel pretty solid

Got my conferr on craigslist for 100 bucks. works great, is heavy duty and removes easy via the yakima racks.
