This is an 84" rack by "Rhino". Room for an antenna in front of it.

The first two pics are the same rack, it is super easy to install and can hold two canoes. It’s so wide that I don’t keep it on unless I’m going to use it. Do rat know the brand but a super simple but effective design. The other rack I think was made by Safari?? I borrowed it for the 2017 pig party. I loved it because it was so low profile and was super stout. IF anyone knows where to get another one like this please let me know.

Andy, doesn't Rhino Rack make a flat rack like that?

 

[Voodoocruisers]

Hi Ron, I’ll take a look. Thanks

a few more i had found showing oem rack:

I bought a used Con-Fer rack on CL and then six replica mounts from Mark’a Offroad.

Since this popped up again might as well post a picture of a Bowfish Rack. One thing I like about it other than the looks is it uses the entire rain gutter for support and the rack is the size of the roof which can haul all kinds of things. Fits the Bush Company or Alucab RTTs perfect.

The Bowfin rack using the entire rain gutter is a very good design.

 

[Gordobe]

Rhino Rack make a flat rack like that?

Yes rhino rack is the flattest rack, no lips or edges to catch on as you drag stuff off the top. perimeter rails and interior platform are same height. Some others the interior platform is a 16th of an inch lower, dragging heavy things off get caught.

Bowfin rack using the entire rain gutter

Love the Bowfin design, wondering if it collects specimens of sorts during bushwhacking episodes?

Saw one at 2019 SSS and bought one. I too park in a garage, run 33's on a 2" lift and I've got about 2"-3" between the rack and the garage.. All aluminum, low profile, accepts all types of gadgets/add ons with the rail system, and distributes weight along the driprail.. Owner of business owns a pig, and had one on his 55... I got mine primarily for when I'm camped, and it's raining like buckets, or cold as %$&!, I can remove things from inside the truck and place it on the roof, and crawl in the back.. One man assembly in about 3-4 hours if I remember correctly. Good work Dogfish..
