Abstract
The present invention relates to an extendable vehicle rack arrangement () comprising a first and a second load carrier foot () and comprising a stationary part () attached to said first and second load carrier foot () and a displaceable part (). The stationary part () is pivotally connected to at least one of the load carrier feet (). The extendable vehicle rack arrangement () is advantageously an extendable vehicle top rack arrangement. The present invention provides for a solution which effectively reduces or neutralizes the intrinsic forces which can be imparted to an extendable vehicle rack arrangement during or after attachment to a vehicle, thereby providing an easier extension of the displaceable part ().
