Installing Rhino Rack Pioneer Platform Rack on 2021 Ford Explorer with raised rails
Question:
Hello, Looking for help. I have a Rhino Rack platform and quite a few accessories which includes a separate set of vortex bars. The platform is the older model and that is where my problem lies. I have a 2021 Ford Explorer with raised rails. Rhino Rack has legs for this but the legs do not work with the older platform. Do you have a product that I can use to attach the rhino rack platform to the raised rails? thank you for your help.

Please check out the attached image which shows the current Rhino Rack Pioneer Platform underside for installation. If your platform rack looks the same, then you just need Rhino-Rack SX Series Legs # RRSX100 to install the rack on your 2021 Ford Explorer with factory raised rails.
If your rack doesn't match the attached photo, then you will need to upgrade to the current style of rack as there aren't legs available to adapt the older setup to your 2021 Ford Explorer. For this, Rhino-Rack recommends the Rhino-Rack Pioneer Platform Roof Tray 60" Long x 54" Wide # RR95TB along with the Legs # RRSX100.
