Well I bought it today, paid for it over the phone and I pick it up in 2 weeks.
The guy I spoke to was a idiot, but the 2 different guys that I spoke to last week were very helpful.
I am felling uneasy about buying it sight unseen but I did not want it to be gone before I could get up there.

I found it by accident.
I was searching Craig's List and I found a guy parting out his DI in Traverse City.
So I replied to his posting asking if he had a roof rack and or a rear ladder, he said no but that the salvage yard just outside of town had a 1999 with "the safari style roof rack, you know the kind, the kind they use in the jungle"
So he gave me the phone number and I called.
"Yup, $150, its the kind they use on safari's"
Wheels started turning in my head, smoke and grinding noises from the gears not being used very often and I called back a couple of days later.
Different guy, same answer.
That was Friday.
Called again today and bought it.
But like I said this guy was a idiot, "its a tube style factory rack, it covers the whole roof"
me-"Does it have all the mounting hardware"
him-"we have to cut it off the roof"
me-"dude, it bolts to the rain gutters"
him-"dont know man"
me-"it bolts to the rain gutters, it is no good to me without the mounting hardware"
him-"do you want it or not?"
me-"credit card number....I'll be there in 2 weeks"
him-"ok, we'll have it off the truck by then"
