Hi folks
Can anyone offer advice/experience with MCC carriers to suit a 2010 SR5 Hilux. What sort of quality differences are there between MCC and Kaymar product? Is the price difference worthy of taking a chance?
Thanks

I've read mixed reviews about MCC rear wheel carrier more positive than negative some say the side wings need strengthening if doing hard off roading. Kaymer's get complained about as
well for poor weld quality etc so don't expect perfection because you pay top dollar. As one person said if you want it for show and to be perfect build your own but if you want one that will get used, scratched etc buy an MCC it will do the job fine and spend the thousands you save on something else.

I've held off for two days but can't leave it alone. Why would you put a rear rack on a ute? They get in the road when towing, you have to stuff about every time you get in the back of the car, and the weight is in precisely the wrong spot, especially on a twin cab.
Are you sticking long range belly tanks right up the back where the spare was as
well?

Hello and thanks for your response. I actually made the enquiry on behalf of my ex-husband who isn't a member.
The Hilux does have long range tanks and he doesn't tow, preferring to swag it. He looked at them at the local 4WD show and wanted to know about quality comparison as I have heard that products using non-Aussie steel sometimes don't cut it here.
I shall forward your response for him to think about.
Thanks again.
Julie
