How to Mount RhinoRack Pioneer Platform to 2007 Toyota Tundra with Roof Rack

Published 04/24/2021

Question:

I have rhino rack tracks and aero bars mounted on my leer truck cap. If I wanted to mount a pioneer platform, could I use the same feet to mount the platform directly, or can the platform connect to the cross bars themselves?

I have a solution for you, but the Rhino Rack Pioneer Platform systems will mount either directly to a backbone system or to crossbars; you won't be able to mount them directly to your Rhino Rack towers, but you can attach one to your aero bars. There are two sizes of Pioneer platform that will attach to your aero bars; you can use the Rhino-Rack Universal Pioneer Platform Rack for Crossbars - Aluminum - 48" Long x 38" Wide # RR42114BF or the Rhino-Rack Universal Pioneer Platform Rack for Crossbars - Aluminum - 58" Long x 47" Wide # RR42115BF. You'll just want to choose the one that most appropriately matches your roof rack system dimensions so that you don't have too much overhang.

I've linked a review video of a Pioneer platform to this answer, as well.
