What is the roof load-rating on a 2014 Mitsubishi Challenger?
Answered by David Morley · 15 Aug 2024

Most factory roof bar systems are only designed for light duty stuff and will have a maximum capacity of between about 50kg and 100kg. So, by the time you add your 75kg tent plus whatever humans are going to be sleeping in it, you’d be way over the limit and in real danger of collapsing the whole deal onto the car’s roof panel.

Most people who fit roof-top tents or use that real estate to store things like spare tyres, fuel cans and camping gear, opt for an aftermarket roof-rack system which is much better able to cope with higher loads. Try a four-wheel-drive accessories store in the first instance and remember that to make a roof-top tent as safe as possible, you’ll also need to find a ladder that fits the car properly to get in and out safely.

The good news is the Challenger was and is a popular choice for campers, so you should be able to find what you need on the aftermarket.

Mitsubishi Challenger 2014: Could it fit Pajero seats?
Answered by Graham Smith · 21 Oct 2016

It's possible they could be, but it's not possible to say with any certainty. Take some measurements of the Pajero seat and compare them with those in the Challenger. You could also ask a mechanic or a wrecker who specializes in Mitsubishis.

The eyebrow height is measured from the centre of the wheel, vertically to the edge of the wheel arch. The vehicle needs to be on flat ground and unladen for this measurement to be taken. In the case of a 2014 Challenger, the standard front eyebrow height is 542mm and the rear eyebrow height is 552mm.
