TrailRax Modular Roof Rack for the 4 Door Bronco Installation

[@steveb8883]

I have had one on my 2 door and one on our 4 door for almost a year and a half. We still love them. I carry a ikamper Sky Camp on one and tons of gear on the other.

Your guy mixes up the windshield brackets BTW. FB-UP-4 is Driver Side. FB-UP-5 is Passenger Side. Unless you reverse them for the Raptor.

I just ordered the half rack with pax rax but didn't know I had to specify its a Raptor Bronco.

[@austinpardue9973]

What brand of amber lights do you have mounted on the back rail?

[@trailrax]

Hey, KD.Overland runs Diode Dynamics for his lighting system. The chase lights that are shown in the video are part of Diode Dynamics' Stage Series lights. If you would like to confirm the model, you can message kd.overland via Instagram.

I would like to get one of these racks for my Bronco but I’d really like to see them or someone else come out with a bracket that will work with this rack and the 50” KC Titan Light bar. And I’m thinking of it sitting in front of the wind deflector or the same spot, sitting on top would be way to high to fit into my garage…

[@trailrax]

Luckily for you! We have that exact bracket in production now and will launch soon!

So in the process os installing my trail pax raxk and was wondering why the 3 washers for the Raptor? Would it not make the top sit higher?

[@trailrax]

great question! For the additional washers on the Raptor, it is to clear some additional hardware that normal broncos do not have, with that said, it still does not effect or change the height of the hardtop on where it sits, in fact it still sits in the factory location because we do not use the same mounting location as the hardtop. This way it completely isolates the lower Pak Rax mount on its own. If you have any more questions, let us know!

[@khalilismyname]

@trailrax Well, i got it installed, and during the installation, I noticed why the need for the additional washers is needed. The installation was a breeze, and the fit and finish were amazing. I posted a quick sneek peek of the trailrax half rax and pax rax installed, and I am super happy. You guys really nailed it. 👏 Thanks for the reply, and thanks for the support during the whole ordering process.

1.93 inches? lol. seriously? why not provide a template of the expected distance? with the amount you guys are charging for the racks, I'm sure you guys can at least do that.

[@trailrax]

Hello! Thanks for your comment. 1.93 inches is typically the measurement we get but due to manufacturing tolerances of Ford Broncos, it can range more or less than 1.93 inches. We inform customers here in the video and on our written instructions that 1.93 inches is a good starting point. Ultimately the measurement between driver and passenger side needs to be the same, to ensure the rack is centered on the vehicle.

[@JoeHuberWerks]

​@@trailraxyour instructions say 1.92.

You guys skip some of the hardest steps in this video. How on earth do you get the little nuts on the bolts that are part of the bronco above the windshield? It's absolutely impossible. There's zero space in there.

[@trailrax]

Hello! Thanks for your comment, We usually get the washers and nuts over the factory studs in the front via some needle nose pliers or some smaller hands, then tighten down with a 10mm ratcheting wrench. Some have found loosening the deflector or removing it entirely helps with access to those nuts so you can tighten them down. Hope this helps!

[@MichaelPrentice]

Agreed, every install video seems to struggle with that part.

[@DennisGaudenzi]

@@trailraxright. Just seems like you out things together and then loosen them to tighten again. That whole process should be reviewed to be simplified. Also, you can see the places where you remove the protectors above the windshield with the rack on. It would be nice if they were covered somehow for a nicer look - kinda like the stock rack.
