Thread: Rhino racks

Easy to do. I've got some cheap versions on my roof, but they bolt on strongly and are very sturdy. I think the factory strips have clip off covers over the screws, then unscew them and the whole strip comes off. I can't quite remember now, but it wasn't hard.

When I screwed the roof rack mount points on, I used a bit of Sikaflex underneath them to stop water collecting unde them - you will see what I mean when you fit them.

Even the cheap set I bought had stainless fasteners and it went together very well. I was going to take the cross bars off when I wasn't using them, but I never have, and I haven't noticed any difference in fuel economy either.

Hi

I've got a set of Rhino roof racks on my L322. No problems . Like Gav I was going to take mine off went not in use But there still there.

The flaps over the factory mount just swing up. Do not remove. Screw out studs & replace with Rhino rack mounts

This is what I have Vortex RLCP Roof Rack | Rhino-Rack

Fitting instructions http://vpm.cdn.rhinorack.com.au/Inst...egs/RLCP05.pdf

There are 3 bars & are level when fitted. A little noisy with the sun roof open.

As you will see there are a couple of other designs too. All depends on what your going be using them for .

Thanks Guys, much appreciated!!

Also confirm my rack goes straight onto the Rhino feet, without RR Cross.bars.

CBH25 - that looks perfect for what I had in mind for extended trips - is that a Rhino rack or Tradesman roof rack?

Its a standard alloy Rhino rack.
If you need other photos, feel free to pm me and ill email them to you.

CSBrisie, my car will be in Brisbane Domestic long term car Park over Wed & Thurs this week.

If you want to swing to see the rack for yourself, let me know I'll let you know the level. I believe first 15 mins are free, you can just drive straight out again?

There is no instructions so you have to work out the spacing which is not hard, but the “Pioneer” platforms fit.
