When you’re exploring remote areas, your rack needs to handle the bumps and ruts without flexing or rattling. The Yakima LockNLoad Platform Rack with RuggedLine HD Mounting System is built for exactly that. The durable aluminum platform and black powder coat finish resist corrosion, while the RuggedLine HD system creates a strong mounting surface tested in the Australian Outback. It’s solid enough for overlanding gear and stays stable even on rough terrain.
Keeping gear organized is easier when you’ve got space to work with. This 55" long x 49" wide platform gives you a large, flat surface for all kinds of cargo—tents, recovery boards, spare tires, jerry cans, or coolers. The horizontal slats have integrated channels so you can position your accessories anywhere you need them. With a 220-lb weight capacity on-road and off-road, it’s made to handle a full load without compromise.
From kayaks to rooftop tents, this platform fits the way you travel. The integrated channels accept both clamp-on and channel-mount gear, letting you attach carriers, awnings, shovel holders, lights, or other favorites with ease. Whether you’re setting up camp or loading watercraft, the flexibility means you can switch setups without changing your rack.
Long drives can get noisy when air hits a flat rack head-on. The LockNLoad platform includes a wind fairing that helps reduce noise and drag so you can have more comfortable road trips between trailheads or campsites. It’s one less distraction when you’re clocking those highway miles.
Once it’s bolted on, this platform feels like part of your vehicle. The system uses rails that attach to existing mounting points with included hardware for a secure fit. No guesswork—just a solid connection ready for any trip. With its limited lifetime warranty, it’s a setup designed to last for years of hauling and exploring.
Ratings & Reviews
Great Product - Yakima does a great job in design. Love the tough sturdy look it gives. BUT Beware this only fits 4th Generation Jeep Grand Cherokee 2011-2021, DOES NOT FIT - 5th Generation 2022 - current year. etrailer site says it does fit but it does not, you will be sent the 4th Gen product. I still give them 5 stars for product review. Also the Rhino brand does not have anything that will fit the 5th Gen.
