Features to know about

Carry Big Loads Without Limits: Large, Flat 83" x 56" Platform

When you need more space than traditional crossbars or baskets can offer, the Rhino-Rack Pioneer Platform Rack delivers. Its wide, flat 83" long x 56" wide surface gives you room for bulky gear—perfect for kayaks, tents, or overlanding supplies. With this much real estate up top, you can load up for any trip knowing everything has a solid place to ride.

Stay Quiet and Efficient on the Road: Low-Profile, Aerodynamic Design

Roof racks can make a lot of wind noise and drag, but this platform’s low-profile build helps smooth airflow for a quieter and more stable ride. The integrated detachable wind fairing keeps things streamlined, cutting down the sound of rushing air so you can focus on the drive instead of the racket above.

Ready for Any Adventure Setup: Works with a Range of Accessories

This platform was built to handle whatever your trip calls for. Integrated channels in the frame and planks fit a wide range of Rhino-Rack accessories like awnings, light brackets, shovel holders, and spare tire mounts. Add optional accessory bars (RR33AP – sold separately) to carry kayak carriers, cargo boxes, or other roof rack gear—all mounted cleanly using the system’s channels.

Built Tough for Off-Road Use: Rugged Aluminum Construction

Designed and tested for off-road conditions, the Pioneer Platform uses a powder-coated aluminum frame with reinforced nylon connectors. That combination gives it strength while keeping weight down and resisting scuffs from hard use. It’s made to take the bumps and dust of trail travel without skipping a beat.

Simple Setup and Maintenance: Complete System with Torque Tool Set

Getting the platform ready is straightforward thanks to the included torque tool set and bolt-on legs that secure into the tracks’ top channels. Once mounted, maintenance stays easy so you can focus on planning your next trip instead of working on your rack.
