Hey all, first post here, longtime lurker, just picked up my JTRD a couple weeks ago.
I have an RSI Smartcap EVOa on order, and am trying to decide on a platform roof rack to support my Ikamper skycamp 3.0 (165 lbs), my partner and I (470 lbs combined), and whatever else (canopy, slide out table storage, etc). So the tent and me and my partner at minimum take up 635 lbs of the 770 static load of the RSI. I’ve looked into Front Runner Slim Line II and Rhino Pioneer platform systems, but their static load is 660 lbs. The in-house RSI platform rack supports the full 770 lbs, but after we got of the phone with RSI, it looks like it is even more delayed than the smartcaps themselves.
So my question is: Is there a platform roof rack that will mount to my EVOa that will match closer to the 770 static weight rating than the 660 of of the Front Runner and Rhino?
Thanks everyone
