Thank you for this thread.
Now when I go and get my rack I know what tools to bring as I have to take it off the donor truck.

How did you find one and can I ask how much was it?

I found it on Craig's List, it was $150.

I was searching for "Land Rover parts" and found a guy in Traverse City parting out his '96.
So I sent him a message and asked him if he had a roof rack or rear ladder.
He said no he did not but the local salvage yard had a smashed DII with a "safari style roof rack, you know the kind, the ones they use in the jungle"
He gave me their number and I called them and sure enough, and it was $150.
So I paid for it over the phone and I go and pick it up in a week.
It is 2.5 hours away.

This was one hell of a deal, most go for $500-700 for a used SD rack.
I thought about selling it for a profit but I think I am going to keep it.
