Platform and Cargo Basket Options for Thule TracRac One and Thule Wing Bar Evo

Question:

I have on the bed of my 2020 Ram 2500 short bed the Thule TracRac Trac One and on the roof of my truck I have the Thule Wing Bar Evo both purchased in the last two months. I am looking to add preferably the Rhino Pioneer Platform 76inch X 54inch or longer and want to know if this would fit the Thule cross bars. I like the accessories from Rhino. I would also consider the YAKIMA 23inch wide roof basket for the Trac One. Two of these on the Trac One might look pretty nice and add cargo carrying space. What are my options with these two types of Thule Cross Bars. I am not interested in the Thule Baskets.

I do have a solution for you but unfortunately the Rhino Pioneer Platform Rack 76inch x 54inch is not compatable with either your Thule TracRac One or Thule Wing Bar Evo as it requires its own vehicle mounting system.

The Rhino-Rack Universal Pioneer Platform 58inch x 47inc part # RR42115BF will fit on your Thule TracRac One or your Thule Wing Bar Evo. Also Two of the Yakima SkinnyWarrior Cargo Rack part # Y07014-16 with extension will fit your Thule TracRac One, and will fit without the extension on your Thule Wing Bar Evo.

Another option that gets you a platform system on your Thule TracRac One is the Yakima LockNLoad Platform Rack 76inch x 65inc part # Y05046-39. This allows you plenty of room for storage and give you adaptability for accessories such as Yakima HD Hook Straps part # Y01165 to secure your cargo.

I have attached information for each of racks mentioned to help you find what best fits your needs.
