pioneer in use on trail

Built for off-road use and tested in harsh Australian conditions, the Rhino-Rack Pioneer platform is a comprehensive solution for your cargo carrying needs. This platform's large, flat surface lets you carry more gear than a typical roof rack, freeing up space inside your vehicle. The Pioneer uses integrated channels in the planks and side rails to accommodate a wide variety of Rhino-Rack accessories, including rail systems, awnings, light brackets, and more. The platform mounts directly to your crossbars.


The Perfect Roof Rack for Any Outdoor Lifestyle

pioneer with accessories

Whether you are overlanding, camping, or tailgating, the Pioneer platform's ample surface space lets you carry a large amount of cargo and gear. This helps free up space inside of your vehicle so you and your passengers can travel comfortably. The integrated channels located in the planks and side rails let you install channel-mount accessories, like an awning or kayak carrier, similar to a traditional roof rack. But, there are also several accessories that install exclusively to the Pioneer platform, such as the aluminum folding ladder and gas can holders. And because of the platform's design you can utilize many of these accessories at the same time.



Utilitarian Design with Rugged, Off-Road Look

pioneer aerodynamic design

The Pioneer platform was designed with utility in mind and features a rugged, off-road look. The low-profile tray was also designed to be aerodynamic to help reduce wind noise and drag.


Strong, Durable Construction

pioneer close up

Strong, yet lightweight, the platform's frame is constructed of aluminum and includes reinforced nylon connectors. Since these materials are powder coated and non-corrosive, the platform won't rust or fade when exposed to the weather. Rhino-Rack has rigorously tested the Pioneer in the harsh Australian outback, ensuring it's built to withstand anything your adventures throw at it.


Universal Fit on Most Crossbars

This Pioneer platform rack fits most crossbars and includes all the parts necessary to install it. However, it is not compatible with Rhino Rack Heavy Duty crossbars. The platform comes unassembled, so you will have to put it together before proceeding to the installation. After this is complete, simply use the clamps to connect the bars on the bottom of the platform and crossbars together. Alternatively, you can bolt the platform to the integrated channels on the crossbars using the upper clamp and included hardware.

  • Rhino Rack Universal Pioneer Platform Direct Mount To Vortex Crossbars Using T-Slots
    You can connect the Rhino-Rack Pioneer Platform - Universal Mount - 48" Long x 38" Wide # RR42114BF or the larger # RR42115BF using the T-bolts. You do not need to use the universal bar clamps and will not use all of the included pieces for this installation method. See the attached installation details page 5.

    If you have a Retrax tonneau cover on your 2019 Toyota Tacoma (5-ft. bed) like the RetraxONE XR # RTT-60851 or the RetraxPRO XR # RTT-80851, the adapter that you need to use the Yamkima OverHaul HD # Y01151-58 is the Tonneau Cover Adapter Kit for Yakima OverHaul HD # Y01155. As far as mounting a Rhino-Rack pioneer platform on the OverHaul HD, the only platforms that will fit are the Rhino-Rack Universal Pioneer Platform Rack part # RR42114BF which is 48" long x 38" wide and part # RR42115BF...

  • Do Rhino Rack Pioneer Platform Roof Trays have Weight Capacity
    Rhino Rack has told us in the past that the weight capacity for their Pioneer Platform trays like the # RR42114BF or the other one you mentioned will be the weight capacity of the vehicle roof/roof rack minus the weight of the tray since these are overbuilt for their applications basically.

  • How Can I Mount a Pioneer Platform to My RetraxPRO Hard Cover on My 2022 Ram 1500?
    I have an answer for you. Without knowing the exact bed size or whether you have RamBox installed on your 2022 Ram 1500, if you are looking to use a Retrax Pro model with the included rails like the RetraxPRO Hard Tonneau Cover # RTT-80245, I cannot guarantee that the Landing Pad 26 # Y75ZR fit into the dimensions of the tracks of the Retrax tonneau cover. Yakima unfortunately does not test their landing pads on other manufacturers' tracks, so there is no way to tell if the LockNLoad platform...

This uses the universal mounting brackets as opposed to the specific Pioneer Platform Rack # RR32TB that you are looking at which installs with the Rhino-Rack feet.

  • Is There A Rhino Rack Pioneer Platform For a 2023 Lexus GX 460 With Factory Crossbars?
    Since you already have the crossbars on your 2023 Lexus GX 460 you would need to use either the 58" Long x 47" Wide # RR42115BF or 48" Long x 38" Wide # RR42114BF which will fit a crossbar up to 3" wide and 1-1/2" tall.

  • Correct Selection of Roof Rack Systems for a 2019 Mitsubishi Outlander Without Roof Rails
    That is correct. In our roof rack fit guide for your 2019 Mitsubishi Outlander you will choose the category "with no existing rails or crossbars" which I've linked for you to filter through. I recommend checking out one of the Rhino-Rack aero-style roof rack system. We have the ROC25 which has more of an OEM look as well as the Vortex crossbar system which has the overhang past each leg. Below is a list of the parts you'll need for either setup: ROC25 Kit - # RR65GR Vortex Aero 54" Crossbars...

    You can indeed install a Thule Square Bar Roof Rack over the Pace Edwards UltraGroove Hard Tonneau Cover # 311-KMTA10A38 that you referenced but it will still require the Universal version of the Rhino-Rack Pioneer Platform. For the roof rack you will need the Rapid Podium Foot Pack # TH460R, the Fit Kit # THKIT3101 and 60 Inch Square Bars # TH712500. Then to mount to a standard roof rack like this you will need either the 58" x 47" Pioneer Platform # RR42115BF or the smaller 48" x 38"...

The Rhino-Rack Sunseeker Awning part # RR32133 could be used if you also purchased the Rhino-Rack Universal Pioneer Platform Rack part # RR42114BF but these are your options.

  • How to Mount a Thule Ski Rack on the Rhino-Rack Pioneer Platform # RR42114BF
    Yes, you can mount a Thule ski rack, like the SnowPack # TH7326, to the Rhino-Rack Pioneer Platform # RR42114BF by using accessory bars. These come in a 24" length # RR43232B or a 48" length # RR43137B. The 48" bars will be about 10" wider than the platform itself so if the mounting locations on your Thule ski rack are adjustable or mount within 24" I recommend going with the shorter option.

Right now, there isn't a way to mount a propane tank to your SideBars, the only option we can offer is to use the Propane Tank Holder for Rhino-Rack Pioneer Platform Rack # RRRGBH4 with the Rhino-Rack Pioneer Platform Rack # RR42114BF on your Yakima system.
