It seems that you are on the right track here. The RCL legs # RRRCL6 and backbone kit # RRRJKB1 are exactly what you will need in order to mount a platform on the roof of your 2016 Jeep Wrangler. That said, the legs are made specifically to work with the Rhino Rack Pioneer platforms. The pioneer platform has a track on the bottom that accepts a 30 mm x 25 mm x 5 mm track nut. I cannot confirm that this will work with other brands of platform, but as long as your platform has a track underneath that will fit the track nuts, it should work together just fine.

We do have the 52" Long x 56" Wide pioneer platform # RR42TB, which you can use, if you find that your platform is not compatible.
