KikaTuesday I am going to Spring Hill, Florida to pick up a OEM factory Luggage rack. I am trying to stay with OEM parts even sometimes there is room for improvement with third party items.

On the rack has anyone had experience with them? Good of bad?...any vibrations,,,,,loaded or unloaded? any suggestions just using it..keeping it clean....appreciate your input!!!!!!
Kika

Dave MillsIf it has not been reinforced, it will break if you try to use it. An additional brace needs to be welded to it for strength. There are old posts on the site about this, but I did not take the time to "search" them. Mine is in storage and I can't get a pic of the "fix" without going to my storage building.
jimsuttonThere are some luggage boxes there for sale . a few different types to look at that might be a better choice .???
KikaGreat input appreciate the help!!!!! The one I am looking at has additional steel support bar welded near the trailer hitch connection....again want to use OEM parts but will consider others .......
alrtgI have a chrome PT Cruiser rack for my Kat.
It was less expensive, chrome, and to the best of my knowledge does not have the breaking issues the Prowler rack has.

You may consider one of the Weekender or Transporter enclosed luggage carriers made by some of the members here.

George JohnsonA close up look at the Transpotor...
KikaI was looking and looking for that PT rack and could not find one...where do you get one? -- and chrome sounds nice!
ed monahanThe chrome PT racks were closed out about 4 or 5 years ago. You can probably only find one used.
