Roof bar with Thule Snowpack Extender

[svmaven]

Sorry if this is a duplicate question. Has anyone mounted the Thule Snowpack Extender on the Ineos roof bar? Which I surmise is a Rhino Rack Reconn.

The Thule is big enough for six skis while the Rhino ski rack only holds three and appears to mount above the roof bar. I'm hoping something with a T-nut sliding into the track will work (assuming the Ineos roof bar has a t-nut track). Spec sheet doesn't really call it out.

It is the Reconn Deck bar, and yes, it uses t slots. The Thule Snowpack and the RhinoRack ski/snowboard rack both use T bolts to mount, so it should be fine. They actually both come with multiple options for mounting hardware - T bolts included among them. TBH, I didn’t really like how that option played out. I got the bars from the dealer, the LED light bar, and the RhinoRack ski rack that they sell (only holds 2 pair of skis). I used the bars for about 2 months and then took them off and replaced them with Leitner bars (you can get a pair for $500 from Leitner). Then I got a spare tire-mounted ski rack called the “Gringo” (hah hah) from an Italian company called Fabbri - I can mount and dismount it in 30 seconds, and it has 2 locks - both for the skis and for the whole rack. Much quieter bars (wind noise), no weight on the rain gutter, and great for mounting my Alu-Cab awning and Leitner Sidekick MOLLE panel.
