You can add a Rhino-Rack Pioneer platform to your 2019 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited hardtop without drilling or using the Backbone system but you'd have to go with the smaller Pioneer universal rack and attach it to a Rhino-Rack roof rack that mounts to the gutters. If you want to do this here is what you need:
- Rhino-Rack Vortex Aero Crossbars # RRVA150B-2
- Rhino-Rack Roof Rack Legs - Gutter Mount # RRRL110S5-2
- RLTP Leg Adapters for Rhino-Rack Vortex Aero Crossbars # RRVA-FK1-2
- Rhino-Rack Universal Pioneer Platform Rack for Crossbars - 58" Long x 47" Wide # RR42115BF
Since you specifically asked about the Rhino-Rack I wanted to offer that solution, but there is a different option that fits your 4-door '19 Wrangler Unlimited hardtop that requires less parts and gets you a larger platform, from Thule. For that you'd need the following:
- Thule Caprock Platform Roof Tray - 82-3/4" Long x 65" Wide # TH88YE
- Rapid Gutter Feet for Thule Crossbars - Rain Gutters # TH93ZR
Personally I'd go with the Thule to purchase less parts and have the larger platform.
