Move bulky gear up top with this DEK roof cargo platform. Fits most crossbars, supports up to 300 lbs, and has T-channels for accessory mounts. Adjustable crossbars help clear sunroofs and antennas. Compatible with DEK Light Bar (sold separately).
When your trip starts turning into a game of Tetris, this DEK platform gives you a sturdy place to move bulky cargo up top. It's built from metal with stainless steel hardware, and it's rated for up to 300 lbs. Load it up with a rooftop tent or cargo cases, and keep the gear pile out of your seats. Just follow your vehicle manufacturer's roof load rating, use the lower of the two limits when you're loading up, and turn your roof space into organized cargo space - without giving up your sunroof.
The integrated T-channels let you add mounts and accessories instead of relying on straps alone. You can set it up for bike racks, kayak racks, and ski and snowboard racks, then change it up when the season changes. Your IBEX Shovel Mount and Jack Mount also bolt right into the DEK T-channels for a clean, secure fit.
The adjustable crossbars give you flexibility when you're dialing in your setup. Reposition them to fit your cargo box, bike mount, or kayak mount, and keep space open for roof features like a sunroof or antenna. You get more ways to carry what you want without giving up the parts of your vehicle you actually use.
If you want a built-in lighting option, you can add the DEK Light Bar (KU53SR sold separately). It mounts to the platform and gives you white light settings, so you can tune your lighting to the road, weather, or dusty conditions.
1. Begin by measuring the width between the drip molding on both sides of the roof.
2. If your vehicle has a hatch back, open the hatch fully. Measure from where the windshield meets the roof panel to the opened hatch back. If your vehicle does not have a hatch back, measure from where the windshield meets the roof panel, to where the roof meets the back glass.
3. Measure the maximum space between your crossbars. If your crossbars are adjustable, extend them to their maximum extent, then measure the width of your crossbars.
4. Pick the rack that falls within those dimensions.
