Either that or make your own? If you find a buddy with welding skills, or you make your own, you will get exactly what you want...

I was asking this at the local custom truck shop last year. They said they do carry one that would fit the factory rack...it's a universal mount basket. Can't forget the brand tho :dunno:

At least you know there IS one that will fit :D

so, most of the roof baskets you find have an adapter for roof racks like the ex has. i know i have one for my b2 and it would be easy to make it fit to the luggage rack main bars of the ex.

my girl is gonna want to take that home with us today :icon_rofl: :icon_rofl:
That was stock on the 2003 Explorer NBX: No Boundaries eXperience. Try to find one. :thefinger:

Its really just a Yakima Load Warrior with the extension and an Explorer sticker. Now, the pair of Explorer: No Boundaries folding chairs I keep in the back of the truck are easier to find.
