You sir have cost me thousands of dollars with your videos. I keep buying things. Expect a cease and desist letter from my wife. All kidding aside, great content as always Brad. Ordered the rack yesterday and will have it installed by the shop as I do not have the moral fiber to drill into the roof. Kudos to you and your hands on approach. Definitely considering supporting you through patreon and would love to join you on a trip someday (I'm less than 2 hours north of san diego). All the best!

PLEASE READ IF YOU ARE INSTALLING THE KIT AND MEASURE!! Most definitely double check the measurements of the supplied paper template! Mine didn't match up to the given measurements. So glad I checked right before I drilled. 123mm specified on the paper template was only 117.20mm

After watching this video, I ordered this rack. I ran into a couple of issues that I think are important to note for prospective buyers: 1. After I mounted the planks to the end rails (8:40 in the video), I turned it right side up to find that the screws had pushed into the topside of the plank ends causing the end of rack plank to bulge up. I corrected this by adding two additional flatwashers to the screws. 2. I ordered mine with quickmount legs that lock and unlock for quick removal. The six legs (as part of kit JA8213 at etrailer.com) came in the form of one kit with four legs and one kit with 2 legs. These were keyed differently between the two sets. I contacted Rhino Rack and they sent me some matching cylinders and keys to make it right. 3. Although I followed the fitting instructions meticulously, I could not align the rack to the legs. I had to drill a hole to expand the oval mounting points for two of the crossbars in order to correct this. It also helped that I was using a canoe/kayak ceiling hoist to raise and lower the rack. Other than these obstacles, the installation went well and the rack looks great. Thanks for this and your other videos!

If you take your top off and on a lot, you might think about a pulley system that could be attached to the ceiling of your garage. With such a system, you could unbolt your soft top from the jeep and then use that system to attach to your Rino Rack and lift it straight up and then drive off. Just reverse the process to replace the soft top and rack back on the jeep. Just an idea.

Okay, just watched your “How has my rooftop tent lasted” video and had to re-watch this one. Couple questions: 1- you said the weight capacity I’d like 250 lbs... how does that hold the tent and two large adults? Seems like you would max that out quickly. 2- One thing that worries me about a roof rack like this (and the major reason I haven’t bought one) is I still want the ability to take my hardtop off. Could you do a video about that someday? I’d love to see the steps involved in hard top removal with this attached.
@TrailRecon6 жыл бұрын
250lbs is the dynamic weight, I think the static weight is 800lbs. There are no special steps involved in taking the top off with this rack. Unlike a few others out there that secure to the rollbar, this one is only attached to the roof and everything comes off normally.

I'll have to look into that, but honestly, I don't think I'll be removing it.

The Quick Disconnects are awesome but run the Platform about an inch taller than this setup, which is required for the quick-release mechanism to fit/work. Trade off of height vs. convenience, whatever works for you I guess!

I have this rack on my Jeep and it's fantastic. My office has a low clearance parking garage so I'm not able to run the rack unless I'm on a trip. I also don't see a need to keep the extra weight on the roof.
