Is There a U-Bolt that Fits a Rhino-Rack Universal Top Plate or the Universal Pioneer Platform Rack?
Question:
I have a 2019 Lexus GX460. I bought RR42115BF product from your company two weeks ago. After installation, I found that the gap between the roof and part 31 is too small. If the cargo is loaded, it will be crushed on my car. At the top, I want to know if there is a U bolt that fits part 33 instead of part 31

I think I have a solution to this spacing issue. I went ahead and called my contact at Rhino-Rack, and he confirmed that even though the Rhino-Rack Universal Pioneer Platform Rack # RR42115BF is a universal rack, Rhino-Rack unfortunately does not make any spacer materials to fill that gap between the rack and your roof.
However, if you are thinking about getting a u-bolt to fit into part 33 (Universal Top Plate # CA1418), the bolt measurement would be M6 x 70mm. Even though Rhino-Rach does not sell this specific part, I recommend getting a M6 x 70mm from a local hardware store.
