Previous owner was not careful with his wagon and somehow got the roof-rack bar "bent". Anyone know of a good spare in a bone yard. We are in Columbia, SC.
I guess it can be shipped UPS if need be.

Buick? Chevy? Olds? Year? The Buicks and Olds have a different rack than the Caprice. The bars don't swap.

It's a 1994 Buick Roadmaster Estate.

I have a number of sets of the RM roof rails. If any of the others are cracked, and you need more than one, I can ship them to you. I use FEDEX. Pricing is about $15 each plus shipping, all 5 for $50 shipped. Shipping for 5 is the same as one (pricing is by size, not weight).

Can any member tell me if the 1993 and 1994 roof-rack bars and mounting parts interchange?
Do you have the mounting hardware (2 nuts, 2 bolts, 2 spacers)?
Trouble would be gettng the part(s) it to me. UPS probably would charge twice as much as I am offering for the parts ($20).
My brother will be in Fla in October and could pick up the parts. Where are you located?

Thanks for responding.

I think I need to forget having the parts shipped to me. Even by USPS, we are talking over $20. So I am going to go visit some "junk" yards myself, during my travels in and around S. Carolina. Thanks for your offers guys.

The 5 rails on the roof are interchangeable, and the rack itself may be interchangeable as well. The crossbars are different, but may also be interchangeable. The 91-93s have one chrome/aluminum crossbar, and the 94-96s have 2 arched crossbars. The 94-96s have a nut plate that runs in the channel, and thumb screws to tighten the racks. The 91-93s use locking tabs on the top of the crossbar to clamp it to the track.
