Load ratings and the vehicle's roof limit
Every Wedgetail product is 100% off-road rated to its full rating. There is no separate, lower off-road figure. Static rating = 3.5 x the dynamic rating (100 kg dynamic = 350 kg static; 150 kg dynamic = 525 kg static). A solution with no published rating is shown as "No published rating".
How Wedgetail fits the Suzuki Vitara
Fit methods across the Suzuki Vitara solutions: rail utilising OEM fixtures (2). Each solution's fit method is listed in its generation table. The main frame sections are welded; the other parts bolt or click together, so the rack ships flat-pack.
Suzuki Vitara roof rack questions
Which Wedgetail fits my model year and generation?
Wedgetail lists solutions for the Suzuki Vitara VJ (Sep 2005 to 2005) and the Suzuki Vitara VJ (Sep 2005 to 2012). Pick your generation on this page, then your cab or body type; each section links to the matching shop page.
What sizes suit each cab or body type?
Platform sizes (width x length) listed for the Suzuki Vitara: Wagon: 1200 x 2000 mm; LWB Sunroof: 1200 x 2000 mm. The size for each solution is in the tables above.
Can it mount to a canopy instead of the cab?
Not for the Suzuki Vitara at the moment: every listed solution mounts on the roof. Wedgetail fits ARB, EGR Gen 2, Maxliner Venture, RSI Evo, Utemaster Centurion and Ascent canopies and Caddy Storage, CSM and Mode service bodies; a canopy or service body not on this list is not fitted.
What does it bolt to (rails, OE points, gutters)?
It depends on the solution. Fit methods listed for the Suzuki Vitara: rail utilising OEM fixtures (2). The fit method for each solution is in the tables above.
Will it carry a rooftop tent (dynamic and static rating)?
Check the tent weight against the dynamic rating and the tent plus occupants against the static rating. Platforms for the Suzuki Vitara are rated 100 kg dynamic, which is 350 kg static, and the rating holds 100% off-road. Stay within the vehicle's own roof limit too.
Is the rating reduced off-road?
No. Every Wedgetail product is 100% off-road rated to its full rating. There is no separate, lower off-road figure.
Do third-party accessories fit?
Yes. The lip around the platform is there for strength. Some third-party accessories are harder to fit; a 10 mm spacer overcomes it, and with that they fit.
What warranty applies?
Warranty is per solution: Oval Steel 5 years.
Where can I get it fitted?
