When you’re packing for a long trip or an off-road weekend, having room for everything matters. The Rhino-Rack Pioneer Platform gives you a big, flat 83" long x 49" wide surface that handles gear traditional crossbars can’t. It’s ideal for carrying bulky items like tents, coolers, or outdoor tools. The flat layout keeps your load stable and makes it easy to strap down different shapes and sizes.
Off-road driving and heavy cargo demand a rack that won’t flex under pressure. The included Backbone mounting system bolts to the factory mounting points and creates a stable base for the platform. Once locked in place, it feels solid and ready for demanding terrain. The aluminum frame with reinforced nylon connectors stands up to off-road vibration, while the powder-coated finish resists scuffs and weather exposure.
Long highway drives can turn noisy when wind hits a roof rack the wrong way. The Pioneer Platform’s low-profile design smooths airflow and helps reduce noise and drag. It even includes a detachable wind fairing that directs air cleanly over the rack. That means a more relaxed drive to your next destination without having to fight wind resistance the whole way.
From cargo boxes to shovels and awnings, this platform is built to carry your favorite gear. Integrated channels along the planks and frame let you mount Rhino-Rack accessories (sold separately) right where you want them. You can add light brackets, tire carriers, or even route wiring internally through the perimeter of the platform for a clean setup. Optional accessory bars (RR33AP – sold separately) make it possible to attach kayak carriers and other roof rack equipment too.
When you invest in a roof platform, you want it to handle years of use without worry. The Pioneer Platform is built from tough aluminum designed for Australian off-road conditions. That rugged foundation gives it impressive strength while keeping weight down. With its corrosion-resistant coating and 5-year limited warranty, it’s built to stay ready for whatever adventure comes next.

I love this roof rack! Since I purchased it, I also purchased the eye bolts for the rack and have used them numerous times over the past year. I have been able to move many different things on top of the rack. At this point, Im looking at possible getting the side guards in the near future.

The rack is still doing great! No issues and the mounting system is holding up well even under some harsh off-roading conditions.
