  • Will the Gutter Mounts # RL150S13-3 Attach to a Rhino-Rack Pioneer Platform?
    I went ahead and reached out to my contact at Rhino-Rack, and she confirmed that the Rhino-Rack Roof Rack Legs - Gutter Mount - 5-15/16" Tall # RL150S13-3 will technically attach to a Rhino-Rack Pioneer platform. However, Pioneer Platforms are customized to fit certain roof dimensions, and I cannot recommend which platform you will need for your vehicle. In order to give you the proper fitment and recommendation, please feel free to respond to this answer with the year/make/model/roof...

  • What is the Weight Rating of the Rhino-Rack Gutter Mount Roof Rack on a 2022 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited
    The weight rating for the gutter mount system from Rhino-Rack is really 88 lbs for your 2022 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited with the hard top. Since there are many other options out there with a higher rating I recommend going a different direction. For your application I recommend the Rhino-Rack Backbone roof rack system which consists of the following: 59" HD Crossbars - # RB1500B-2 Quick Mount Legs - # RRRLT600 Backbone System - # RRRJLB1 Rubber Bases - # RRQMFK06 Spacer Blocks - # RRQMHD05-2 This...

  • Weight Rating for the Rhino-Rack Gutter Mount Roof Rack on a 2022 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited
    You are correct, the Rhino-Rack SG Roof Rack for Rain Gutters with Vortex Aero Crossbars, # RRSG59 that you linked to is 88 lbs. But don't worry, we have other options. I suggest you consider the Rhino-Rack Backbone roof rack system that starts with the, Backbone System, # RRRJLB1 using Rubber Bases, # RRQMFK06, Spacer Blocks, # RRQMHD05-2 and Quick Mount Legs, # RRRLT600 along with 59" HD Crossbars, # RB1500B-2. This will provide you a heavier rating of 175 lbs. however, please check...

  • Roof Platform Rack that Fits Nissan Armada 2008-2024
    You didn't mention what year Armada you have but the 2015 Nissan Armada is a first gen so while we have a platform solution we don't have a Rhino Rack. So what we have that is a fit is the Front Runner Slimline II platform part # FR48YJ which is 85-1/4 inch by 53 inch. This platform so far fits 2008-2024 Nissan Armadas. This would work great to support a tent like you are looking for.

  • What Backbone System Works w/ a 2023 Jeep Wrangler 4xe?
    There are tons of options for Jeep's so I would be happy to point you in the right direction. The correct back bone system with a pioneer platform for your 2023 Jeep Wrangler 4xe hard top is the item # JB0893 you were looking at. The Rhino-Rack Pioneer Platform Rack with Backbone Mounting System item # JB0893 measures 72" long x 56" wide. It has a 264 lbs capacity and weighs 94 lbs. If you are wanting a back bone system that mounts traditional crossbars you will need the following...

  • Rhino Rack Pioneer Platform that Fits 2018 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited
    The mounting kit needed to fit a Rhino Rack Pioneer Platform to the roof of a 2018 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited is the part # RRRJLB1 which you could potentially be used with the smaller Pioneer Platform # JA8688 but you are going to end up having to get the # RRQMHD05, the leg kit # RRRLT600 and the # RRRLT600H. I'd go with the larger # JB0893 though as it will fit and is the most cost effective solution. The picture I attached shows what the # JB0893 looks like installed.

  • Can Hard Top Be Removed with Rhino-Rack Backbone Mounting System Installed on Jeep
    The Rhino-Rack Backbone Roof Rack Mounting System # RRRJLB1 is designed to reinforce the structure of your Jeep's hard top so you can carry more weight but it won't physically interfere with the removal of the hard top. Once installed you will still be able to take off and re-install the hardtop on your Jeep without issue.

  • Which Crossbars for Rhino Rack BackBone System to Use Thule Hullavator
    The best solution to use the Thule Hullavator # TH898 with a Rhino Rack Backbone system would be to use Vortex Aero bars like the Rhino-Rack Vortex Aero Crossbars - Aluminum - Black - 65" Long - Qty 2 # RRVA165B-2 (if you're using 3 bars on this setup you'll also need to order the # RRVA165B for a single bar). The extra length on these bars compared to the 59" long bars will give you the extra clearance you need to get away from the side of your Jeep with the Hullavator. You can use the...

  • Recommended Roof Rack System for 2019 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited JLU
    As a fellow Jeep owner I've got some experience with this, and the issue you're going to run into is that the hard tops on Jeep JLU and JKU are not designed to hold any weight because of their lack of internal support. As I'm sure you're aware, they're just a fiberglass shell, so your best bet is going to be starting with a RhinoRack BackBone # RRRJLB1. This kit will add mounting points for a roof rack, while reinforcing the shell of your hard top that will allow you to safely carry weight...
