How Can I Mount a Pioneer Platform to My RetraxPRO Hard Cover on My 2022 Ram 1500?
Question:
Many thanks. My bed size is 5.7 with no Rambox. Will the platforms you’ve suggested work on this size?

I have an answer for you. Without knowing the exact bed size or whether you have RamBox installed on your 2022 Ram 1500, if you are looking to use a Retrax Pro model with the included rails like the RetraxPRO Hard Tonneau Cover # RTT-80245, I cannot guarantee that the Landing Pad 26 # Y75ZR fit into the dimensions of the tracks of the Retrax tonneau cover. Yakima unfortunately does not test their landing pads on other manufacturers' tracks, so there is no way to tell if the LockNLoad platform - 55 Long x 49 Wide # Y05044 can mount directly to the tracks. We also have not heard of this setup working from other neighbors who have tried it.
With that being said, if you are set on installing a platform like the Yakima LockNLoad, Rhino-Rack has a solution that allows you to attach a Pioneer Platform to the Retrax XR's tracks. The 100% guaranteed way to to do this includes the following parts:
- Rhino-Rack Vortex Crossbar System for Retrax XR Series and Mountain Top EVO-M Tonneau Covers - 71" # RRVA180B-RRRLT600
- Rhino-Rack Universal Pioneer Platform Rack for Crossbars - Aluminum - 48" Long x 38" # RR42114BF or the Rhino-Rack Universal Pioneer Platform Rack for Crossbars - Aluminum - 58" Long x 47" Wide # RR42115BF
Since this system includes crossbars, the # RR42114BF or # RR42115BF will attach with no issues. The # RRVA180B-RRRLT600 are made specifically for use with the track dimensions of the Retrax tonneau covers with side rails.
Feel free to respond with the bed size and whether you have a RamBox installed, and I will be happy to recommend the correct tonneau cover for you.
