Going big on cargo? ARB platform rack roof racks give you a flat, versatile base with gutter-mount, fixed, or custom-fit options. Choose sizes like 49" x 45", 49" x 51", 61" x 51", 72" x 51", or 84" x 51" to match your rig, then add rails, tie-downs, an awning, jack or shovel holders, or top channel adapters to secure bikes and other gear.
For bike racks that mount in crossbar channels, use top channel adapters made for ARB platform racks. For cargo, tie-down starter kits and ratchet straps attach to the dovetail track to secure items. Check your bike rack's channel hardware to ensure it interfaces with the adapters. Place tie-downs so they don't interfere with rear hatch or sunroof operation.
Use hardware that matches the ARB platform slat size. The slats measure 5" wide and are 1" thick. Choose u-bolts or accessory feet that clear a 1" thickness and span the 5" width as designed. Before tightening, verify the clamp location won't pinch wiring or block accessory tracks, and recheck after loading to help prevent movement.
Pick the ARB platform rack size that fits your roof and gear needs. Common sizes include 49" x 45", 49" x 51", 61" x 51", 72" x 51", and 84" x 51". Match the rack length and width to your usable roof area and mounting points. If you want added containment or tie-down points, matching full perimeter rail kits are available for those sizes—confirm the rail kit matches your platform size.
Yes—ARB platform racks are offered with gutter mount, fixed mounting, and custom-fit options. Check if your vehicle uses rain gutters or needs a vehicle-specific kit. Confirm the platform size you want is offered with the mounting style your roof supports. If you plan to run an ARB awning, verify your chosen mount and size provide the needed clearance along the side.
