Which Rhino Rack Pioneer Platform Fits 2013 Toyota FJ Cruiser
Updated 11/03/2025 | Published 01/08/2025 >
Question:
What is the length of the side bars the ones with length measurements laser etched on them? Rhino Rack recommends the 84” platform for my application but I’m looking to see if I can go any shorter. The backbone spacing for my application is -91.8cm and +91.9cm, which is a hair over 6ft total length. One of the reference images shows measurements extending to 95cm but I wasn’t sure if that was just a generic image and not specific to this platform.

Hey George, based on the backbone spacing requirement for your 2013 Toyota FJ Cruiser the Rhino Rack Pioneer Platform # RR45TB would be too short. You would have to go with the correct size recommended by Rhino Rack part # RR33AB which happens to be 84 inches in length.
