I like the lowprofile design when compared to the SilenusWatched a bit of that video just now - nice conversion.
It not just lower profile than the Alucab conversion it is also lighter. The documented weight of the Alucab top is 267lb/121.36kg per Brian Fulton the owner of Goose Gear.com. He put his Grenadier on a scale before and after the conversion while confirming the exact same payload and posted images to Instagram. Per Headspace their conversion is 187lb/85kg. That is a difference of 80lb/36.36kg. Not an unsubstantial sum especially as a roof load.I like the lowprofile design when compared to the Silenus
Interesting. Not sure why there would be a big variance. Alucab themselves specify an estimated weight of 100kg. The weight I quoted is based on Insta posts which are linked below. I know Brian personally and these are not fudged numbers. Obviously nothing else can change when weighing the vehicle, ie cargo, fuel, seats etc.FWIW ours was right about 90 Kg before adding a roof rack, solar array, and a set of MaxTrax so I suspect there is a fair amount of variance in the mass figures I’ve seen thrown around for roof conversions.
