It's a surfboard shop blog.
I'm amazed at how quickly I can write about cars.
Aside from that, I feel calmer when I ride the 240.
It makes you feel like you want to go for a long ride.
Honestly, I want to branch out into other board genres (laughs).
If you have short long ones in a case, you can stack them in the middle if they are 240cm.
However, the boxes used to import surfboards are
It's huge.
The width and thickness are so different that it's a box of three.
In previous cars, it was common to fold down the second seat as well.
Also remove the driver and passenger head restraints.
Then, leaning against the edge of the seat, I barely managed to close the rear door.
I often had trouble storing things.
Four boxes and a giant Suburban
It's full to bursting.
The next day, the roof carrier I ordered arrived.
It's heavy.
The packed weight is 26kg.
I had a very hard time deciding on this manufacturer and product number.
Recently, with the camping boom, many 240s are equipped with carriers.
What manufacturer and product number is used?
I didn't notice it at all.
From here, it was left alone for about a week due to the long period of rain caused by the typhoon.
The long-awaited weather finally improved today.
We lay out the parts in the room and start assembling them.
Measure the installation position in advance and center the stay.
It's the small details that take time.
First, can you attach the pipe to the stay in the state shown in the previous photo?
I tried it, but it just didn't work.
I had no choice but to assemble the legs and remove the brackets that were holding them in place.
As I was installing the pipes, it was super stiff!
While prying open the plastic parts with a flathead screwdriver
I'll slip something in.
This is the finished product after the auxiliary pipes were installed.
If you put these in the wrong order, they will never fit in again.
I feel like they should write that clearly in the instructions.
It's been 5 hours since I started assembling it.
Then, with great difficulty, we pulled the carrier up onto the roof.
Here's the completed installation!
Wow, eight legs is pretty impressive.
This is probably what can be loaded onto the 240.
I think this is the maximum size for a roof carrier.
I knew that the fashionable ones were those with four or six legs.
In the future, how can I load boxes containing longs and gliders?
I need a carrier this size.
But what if it rains on the day of customs clearance?
I might just rent a Hiace (lol)
Tomorrow is the first day we receive stock in a while.
