rhino rack "back bone" roof rack system

[Kalgoorlieprado]

I ordered the same Thursday afternoon! Hopefully it arrives early to mid next week so I can fit it for the weekend!

One little thing though, auto one had me pay the freight cost to get the platform and backbone from rhino. I questioned the guy as I didn't understand how that should be paid by me. Anyone else copping this from auto one/any other rhino stockists?

I had to pay $25 freight for mine.. But I live in Kalgoorlie

Hey Josh, AutoOne have now got 20% off all Pioneer setups in their EOFY sale. I've ordered JA8244 which is the 42107B platform with RTPB1 backbone. RRP is $1368 which came down to $1094.

At present the backbone is only available for the long (2128mm) platforms so that's what's in all the pics you would have seen.

Cheers

Wow what a great deal.

I got mine earlier in the year from auto extra but got 10% off for being a previous customer.

I ordered mine on the weekend. I get it next week and paid 1300 with me picking it up an installing myself.

I have a sunroof on my 150 Altitude so it will be interesting to see if the open tilt will not be affected.

Hi Trevor, which rack system size did you go with? And where did you get it? I'm struggling to find one in Perth lower than $1400 for the 42107B (2128mm x 1236mm). Those photos of yours look great, so hoping to find the same combo. Josh

Yeah it does look pretty slick. I'm not too worried about the height (for now), just tossing up between 1928mm long with feet or 2128mm long with backbone. Cost isn't the real concern, I think I read the 2128mm platform was a tad noisier, which is plausible as it protrudes out further. Any idea on that one?
Also the OP queried dirt getting in the mounting point recess. Any risk of that?
Cheers

Nice pics trsmith, thought I would just get feet with my platform but now not so sure

Slightly lower than the feet if height is something that worries you. Plus i think it looks good

Hey Guys!

Great to hear that they're finally finding their way into your hands. We definitely hear you loud and clear regarding the allen keys. As the instruction suggest, a long ball end allen key will absolutely make the fitting 10 x easier & quicker.

Please keep the feedback coming through - good or bad!

Was it? well there you go probably should have looked at them! be nice if the allen key they gave you was what was required to install it

I agree, but done now.. It ain't coming off after that!
