Got a p76 rack on our one and I wouldn't change it for the world, it's one of those things that once you have it you can't live without it. Any one that tows heavy trailers and have to back up a driveway and turn with all the weight over the front wheels would love a p76 rack. Turning circle wise, yeah it may be less but when you put big wheels on the front you can't go full lock with the beddy rack without rubbing, so has not effected us at all. But the transit system sounds very interesting, might do it on the next one, when ever that is  :)

easily available unlike the p76 one. did you know i have only ever seen 1 p76 in my entire life! dad recons he has seen 2 in the last 10 years! id say they are far rarer than the cf!

getting parts for the rack wont be easy when lehland went bust in the 70's..

so there only better because their more readly available??.
dosent mean transit ones are better in my eyes.
i was looking for teck info on why they were better.
ie/ turning circle, ease of fitting, etc.....

i know a bloke that has a fully recond one sitting in his spare room, might be a good thing to grab it i think.
