What Rhino code number for the leg bases did you get? I wanted a low profile so I got Rhino code RLTPMV which are only 2 inches tall but are designed for the Porsche Cayenne/VW Toureg. I had to trim them on one end with my table saw to get them to fit properly.The Rhino rack system arrived from eTrailer. The Rhino feet hardware kit does not allow their bases to attach to the MB factory-installed C-channels properly. ...
Stay tuned.
I am searching for a roof rail option for a 2011 Freightliner 170WB hitop. I am told that the channels were "optional" in some of those years. I can get channels from THULE and piece them together to the desired length. I'm wondering if the whole headliner has to be removed to fasten these into place? Is there a better option than THULE? I want to use thule feet and rapid aero bars to cut down on noise.Bumping this thread for a new question:
Anyone used Rhino Rack's C channels instead of the Mercedes ones? I don't have the OEM tracks on my van and the $$ MB is asking for the tracks is about 4 times the cost of the Rhino tracks.
I would like to know if the C channel cross section dimensions are the same in case I want to use Fiamma brackets made for MB OEM tracks.
emailed Rhino a few weeks ago with no response. Resent email a few minutes ago.
