    Default Roof Basket Net



    I've got a BajaRack Mule on my Suzuki SX4, and am looking for a net for the top. I've checked on Amazon and found several. Is there any one that is better than another? Any experiences?

    Thanks,

    - Andy

    What I use on my 110 roof rack is a LoadTamer net I got through military channel while deployed. It is excellent and has completely replaced any requirement for using ratchet straps to secure all my overland gear when traveling. Even hold it secure on trails.

    These are being used on all kinds of tactical vehicles now.

    Not the cheapest but fantastic nets.

    This is just basic bungee so doesn't quite serve the same purpose as others posted, but I've had really good luck with these:

    I don't know, but that's a good idea.

    Post Cheap 3' x 5' Cargo Nets, non security style for $4.95

    I have 3 of the surplus center nets.
    I drill out the rivets in the vertical bars to leave just the net.

    They work pretty well, 2 ends are looped to slide over a pole, I slide a ratchet strap thru the loop.

    Damn, that's a great price for that. That may solve an internal storage problem I was looking to solve. Thanks.

    I was thinking the same thing until I saw they wanted $18.90 to ship. It's the same shipping price for 2 and even at that I think the deal is gone.
