Nice work! It looks so much better. We will need to trim even more out of ours to get the platform below the roof. My 'high' setting might be pretty lame.
Yes, this is the X15. I have a predecessor to the X15 on my Rebel and love it. This one is very similar, but I really like the look of the canvas instead of black vinyl. Overall we love the X15
The elevate rack is intended to telescope, so there are actually two tubes for each upright. Need to cut each of them and then re-drill the holes through them. Plan to use a chop saw with a high tooth count blade.
No rooftop tent as we like to set up camp and then tour around. The rack will...
Also, this is the specific model of platform. It is essentially the very same size as the bed (around the rails).
Rhino Rack Pioneer Platform Rooftop Cargo System 52" x 56" (52111F)
First post here, but haven’t see too many setups with platforms. I plan to cut the elevate racks to lower it about 3” so the surface of the platform is just above the cab.
The setup is really really sturdy and I love it.
