James Baroud RTT on Pioneer rack

Tanters said:

Good evening All

I'm about to get set up for a summer of camping and realised that the rails on the pioneer rack (ordered with the IG) and the channels on the bottom of the James Baroud Grand Raid XL RTT travel in the same direction. Therefore, not as easy to fix the rack without drilling holes in the platform, which I'd rather not do.

Has anyone fitted a JB to their pioneer rack? What was the solution?

I've mailed Rhino & JBs but not answer yet.

I see all the other rack systems out there for the IG, that might be a simpler job to fix too but I'm not about to change out the pioneer just yet considering what I paid for it ......! I might do so in the future once the dust has settled on the initial puchase

Any guidance would be appreciated!

I’ve had to make an adaption to fit front runner Jerry can holders to the rhino pioneer rack. We simply got some extrusion/slats from a roof rack possible front runner and bolted these across ways / right angles to the rhino rack then you can easily fit any accessories to that. It would certainly work for what you are doing.

also fit in the rack? It would be important to have rubber strips in the rack so that there is really no movement in the direction of travel.
