Thats a nice tray. Mine is factory with a 4" stainless rolll bar, ugly in my opinion but it grows on you I guess. Your tray is how I want to build my tray, nice and neat and simple, yet still can carry stuff.

I have to give the factory tray its wraps, I've run that thing into a lot of solid stuff and it has held its own well.

thanks for the reply mate,

funny enough i put the post up because a mate and myself picked up 2 identical 75 series from WA, and he is the one that was was actually looking to get a stainless bar front and back to carry his canoes and get rid of his factory tray (like mine).

the set up you have looks great, sent your picture off to my mate already to let him have a squizz. You wouldnt happen to have any pictures of the roll bar fitting to the tray would you??

thanks again mate,

Anyboy else got pics of trays and even canaopy ideas for the back of the 75 series? im mad keen for cape trip now that i have a cruiser and wont be dragging the Hilux all the way up there :)

You can still carry stuff, just not much, and you gotta be a real pack rat... :lol:

I'd like to have something like that but carry a lot of boxes and pallets for work so need the sides.

Toying with making something that is custom but with sides I can remove for play.

hahaha bar isnt staying. it'll be coming off when it arrived here in QLD next week.

Still chasing a good ARB (or similar) bar for the cruiser though. So if anyone has a picture to send through, please do (thansk to Dave, John and Heath for already sending some pics through)

But the tray is something i wasnt quite sold on keeping or getting rid of. That one of bIg_ReD_bOiNs looks horn though.

any more anyone? I figured id need a bit of packing space though, the cruiser is for towing afterall.

cheers
