Added a ski rack to my Grenny...

[Tahoeroland]

Since I couldn't find an after-market ski rack for my Grenny, I decided to repurpose a traditional rooftop ski rack to place it onto the ladder. I'm happy with the results. I had to add some extenders to move it further from the ladder to make room for the bindings. (Those extenders were part of an old aluminum flag pole I had lying around... hah!)

Nice to see another Grenadier owner with a AT ski setup. I recently switched to AT after 40 years of tele skiing, my knees just couldn't take it anymore lol.

That’s a great idea. Gonna have to look at using my ladder for my snowboard.

Love the fact it was built not bought. I'm in the middle of building a platform in the back of my grenny. It's fun and very gratifying when you actually pull it off. You did an awesome job!

Thanks, amigo!

Having the skis in back is definitely the way to go - I bought the RR bars and ski rack from my Ineos dealer and then played around with it a bit and realized it wasn’t great - it’s just a really tall truck, you get a bunch of wind noise blah blah. Nicely done.

Thanks! I agree, even if I had the roof clearance for a rooftop rack, it’s a long way to lift up the skis and secure them in a rack. I hadn’t thought about the noise - definitely another downside to the roof option.

Nice work on the rack. Have to acknowledge the choice in triple camber as my quiver is mainly a Deathwish and Ghost Train.

Nice work but probably the worst place to mount skis. Your bindings will hate you. Between the road grime, salt/deicer and corrosion I'd highly encourage you to keep them clean, lubricated and test the release. Not worth blowing out a knee.

Definitely agree and keep mine in boxes or inside, otherwise a mess. Believe he’s only going a short distance with this in mind.
