The roof rack came off a Land Rover Defender 110 and was being stored in the rafters of the hay shed. As we already have one on our Land Rover and needed a creep, I decided the roofrack would fit the bill.
I dismantled it (not an easy job as many of the bolts and screws had rusted tight), reconfigured it and then reassembled it. I then placed three pressure treated wooden spacers between the bottom bar and the floor (to keep the metal out of the pig muck and urine).
The creep is bolted to the floor (through the spacers) with M10 rawlbolts sunk 50mm into solid concrete. It's also attached to the walls with M8 rawlbolts, again 50mm deep into the breeze blocks.
I'll put a wooden platform inside the creep, made of four 2x4s pressure treated joists with salvaged decking boards on top. This will keep the piglets off the floor.
Now, I also have another two thirds of a roof rack left. Any ideas for their use? I have a few, but was wondering what people could come up with!
