- 23 - VEHICLE ROOF RACK ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE Heavy materials such as ladders, pipes and the like are often carried on a roof rack secured to the roof of service trucks, vans and the like and of course are difficult to place on the rack and remove therefrom. The present device includes a carrier which can be extended and retracted relative to the rack and is hinged so that it drops down adjacent the sides of truck when extended, to facilitate loading and unloading of the material carried by the rack. When hinged upwardly to approxi- mately the horizontal position, it may be pushed towards the longitudinal centre of the roof so that it telescopes inwardly thus supporting the material upon the rack. Automatic latches are included to detachably lock the carriers in the retracted position and snubbers are provided to space the carrier from the side walls of the van or truck when in the extended, substantially vertical position.
