Video Transcript for Feature Review Eye Bolt Kit for Rhino-Rack Pioneer Platform Rack

Hey Guys, is Collin here at etrailer. Today we're going to take a quick look at the eye bolt kit for the pioneer platform rack from Rhino-Rack. This eye bolt kit is going to mount in the t-track of your pioneer platform and provide you with a tied on point to secure your cargo. It has a very thick galvanized steel construction so it's going to be very durable and it's going to hold up great to rust and corrosion. Now with our eye bolt kit, we are using the Rhino-Rack cam buckle straps, which are available here at etrailer, either separately or as a kit with the eye bolt.Now you don't have to necessarily use these straps if you have your own those will work as well. Now in your kit you are going to get four eye bolts.

We have two of them right here and these are going to be very versatile. You can adjust them wherever on the platform rack that is going to best be able to secure your cargo. Now I'll just show you how it works real quick. We'll just loosen it like so, and again slide it in the track. If we need to adjust it between the slots, we'll just pull it all the way back.

Bring it outside of the track, just place it in the next one over, slide it wherever we need it.You're going to get all the hardware included with your kit. We're going to have some washers in the front and we do have the plate with the threads inside. That's going to help secure it to the platform rack. Now the order you go is the small lock washer and we'll go the big flat washer and the smaller flat washer. Now we'll just thread on that plate just slightly.

Now we can set it into the track and slide it over. When you're tightening it down, all you gotta do is go by hand all the way. Get it as tight as you can with your hands.If you aren't comfortable with how tight you get it with your hands, you can just grab a screwdriver, anything like that. You just apply it in there from more leverage. Just give it a quarter turn and that's going to be secure.

Now while these are going to make great and sturdy tied on points, they aren't going to be permanent. So if you do need to remove them because you either need the flat surface of your pioneer rack or if you just want to remove them when it's not in use, you can do that very easily. Just take them out of the track and stow them in your vehicle. Well, thank you all for watching. That's going to do for our look at the eye bolt kit for the Rhino-Rack pioneer platform rack.

Eye Bolt Kit for Rhino-Rack Pioneer Platform Rack - Qty 4 - RR43178

Average Customer Rating:  4.7 out of 5 stars   (64 Customer Reviews)

This eye bolt kit provides tie-down points on your Rhino-Rack Pioneer platform for securing heavy loads. Bolts are made from corrosion-resistant galvanized steel. Includes 4 eye bolts.

by:

Easy to use and move around. Not sure why at least the bigger washer that goes above the surface of the platform, and is therefore visible, is not black like everything else, but to be fair it is not advertised that way. The washers do corrode a little and leave some residue on top of the platform, but it is easily removable (at least so far).



by:

This item has proven itself time and time again. The eyebolts configure to my rhino rack however I need to configure them with ease. If You have a Rhino Rack these hold downs are all you need. Thanks etrailer for the recomendation and support.



by:

Seemed a little expensive and like something that I could find a work-around for, but these are nice tough little eyelets. Combined with the Pioneer Platform, they are very flexible and easy to move in regards to their mounting location, which will make them very useful.



by:

They are super beefy, but were too big to fit in the t-slot track on the RetraxPRO XR tonneau cover



by:

Great pricing and fast delivery. Staff was extremely helpful in resolving package that was lost in delivery. Highly recommended.



by:

I will always buy from e-trailer. Customer service is top notch. Great products, fast order processing, fast shipping and an amazing staff. What more do you need.
Thank You e-trailer



by:

These do NOT fit into a rhino rack roof track. No hard feelings, I just thought/hoped they would fit differently than they do. They seem like quality parts and very heavy duty. The black coating looks great.

Thank you for your review. These eye bolts are designed to install into the track of the pioneer platforms. If you have a Rhino Rack roof rack, you will need part S604.



by:

Heavy duty eyebolts, fit well made for the rack!



by:

I love the rhino rack that I put on my 2007 Tundra. It was pretty easy to install; just take your time so that you get it on straight. I've loaded paddle boards, ladders, bicycles and many other things on there with no problems.



by:

These parts are what you need to mount things to the Rhino-Rack.
I mounted my ARB awning brackets with this hardware.



by:

Love theses. Great quality. Appear stronger than my Rhino platform they attach too. Easy to put in platform track and tighten in desired position. Highly recommended. Purchase one set. Saw how well the work and purchased a second set. Seemed a little pricy at first but when I saw the quality I was pleased



by:

etrailer rocks... there are ACTUAL HUMANS that actually take care of you!! The delivery time was SHORT!!! Thank you. The RhinoRack ladder is NOT cheap... but it is perfect. It is sturdy and it folds easily. It is perfect for loading the pioneer platform. It will be used for many years, and it will come in handy. Thanks!



by:

The eye bolt kit makes it easy to secure multiple items to the rack with ease. Loads stay secure over the roughest terrain. Great pricing, service and fast shipping from etrailer makes it even better. Certainly not the last time I'll be ordering from etrailer.



by:

Good eye bolt kit for my Rhino-rack pioneer platform



by:

They are as advertised ..... M10 eye bolts, washers, and channel nuts. What else is there to say.



by:

Very heavy duty I Bolts. Somewhat of an overkill for the Rhino Rack. However I did find them useful on my last overland trip.



by:

Solid mounting points and durable finis h.



by:

Very well made rack, accessories perform perfectly.



by:

I have ordered various products from Etrailer in the last couple of months and I have nothing but good to say about this company. Their customer services people were helpful with my buying decisions and didn't string me along or tell me a bunch of BS. Etrailer's prices are very competitive and all orders were delivered quickly.



by:

Got this for my pioneer platform. Exceeded my expectations on quality. Would highly recommend these. My platform would fail before these eyebolts would



by:

Shipped and received within the time frame scheduled. Fit the rhino rack like a glove.



by:

Exactly what you would expect. All hardware was included, but there were no instructions. You really shouldn't need them for tis basic accessory.



by:

Should work well for roof platform. Etrailer is great!



by:

The rings are heavy and I think they will hold up well

The eye bolts are working as expected even after a year of use.

  • Platform Rack Fit on 2020 Chevy Suburban With Flush-Mounted Rails
    Appreciate the photo, and there is a way to add a platform rack to your 2020 Chevy Suburban, but not the LockNLoad; instead, what you'd need is one from Rhino-Rack, which is the following part number: - Rhino-Rack Pioneer Platform Rack with Backbone Mounting System - 84" Long x 56" Wide # RR68AB The Pioneer Platform # RR68AB is similar to the LockNLoad, and will also mount to your rails, but does not use towers or feet like a roof rack - its backbone system mounts directly to your Suburban's...

  • Can I Mount the RR45TB on a Customized Backbone Installation on a 2007 Nissan Pathfinder?
    I have a platform answer for you. I went ahead and confirmed with Rhino-Rack that they unfortunately do not make an engineered fitment of a Backbone Mounting System or a Pioneer Platform with a 2007 Nissan Pathfinder. Everything you decide to do with the backbone is considered a non-approved fitment. With that being said, it depends on the length and model of Backbone you want to have installed on your roof. This is important because each size platform is designed to go with a specific...

  • Which Platform Roof Rack Is Compatible With A Spare Tire Carrier?
    I have a solution for you, but there isn't a spare tire carrier that is confirmed to fit the Inno Shaper 80 Roof Cargo Basket INXA568, so I do not recommend using the Rhino Rack Spare Tire Carrier # RSWH with it. For a platform rack that will accommodate many accessories and a spare tire carrier, I recommend the Rhino-Rack Universal Pioneer Platform Rack for Crossbars - Aluminum - 58" Long x 47" Wide # RR42115BF. This is compatible with the Rhino Rack Spare Tire Carrier for Rooftop Alloy...

It won't be with the legs you mentioned, but I did verify with Rhino-Rack that the following entire assembly will fit your Jeep: - Rhino-Rack Pioneer Platform Rack with Backbone Mounting System # JB0892 The Backbone system uses legs similar to what you mentioned so it is exactly what you were looking for, and without the added...

  • Securing a Tent to my Rhino Rack Pioneer Platform
    It is inevitable that modifications are done to the Rhino Rack Pioneer Platform like part # JB0892 to accomplish your goals from time to time. With that said doing that can void out the warranty. There really isn't anything to go wrong with the platform so it is kind of a toss up as to how valuable the warranty is but there is a good work around. Using the Eye Bolt Kit for Rhino-Rack Pioneer Platform Rack part # RR43178 will give you sliding attachment points you can use the blocks that...

    We do have the parts that you're looking for. If your 1994 Land Cruiser has a naked roof you will need a total of 6 gutter mounting towers # RL110S2 (sold in pairs), the Roof Rack Leg Spacer Blocks # LHSPAIR and the Rhino Rack Pioneer Platform # RR75TB. If your Land Cruiser has the factory side rails on it, you'll need to first install a Rhino Rack Roof Rack Kit using parts # RRVA137B-2 and # RRSX100, which is the foot pack/fit kit and crossbars, and then add the Pioneer Platform # RR75TB...

  • Aluminum Roof Carrier Compatible with Spare Tire Mount for 2016 Subaru Outback Wagon
    For an aluminum rooftop carrier that will work great with a spare tire mount I recommend taking a look at the aluminum Rhino-Rack Universal Pioneer Platform # RR42115BF instead. This is an extremely versatile rack that will mount to the factory bars on your Subaru Outback and is compatible with a plethora of accessories such as the Spare Tire Carrier # RSWH and the Eye Bolt Kit # RR43178. I have attached a short video review on this platform below that you can also take a look at.

    Thanks for reaching out, I'd be happy to help! You can install the Rhino-Rack Pioneer Platform Rack directly to the roof of your 2023 Ford F-150 Raptor without having to purchase a roof rack first. What you're needing is the part # RR56QP which comes with a 60" long x 56" wide platform, the legs, and the fit kit needed for this to mount to the door jambs of your truck for a secure installation. I really like this setup because it gives you a 165 lb weight capacity and it also gives your...

  • Is Rhino-Rack Pioneer Platform Rack Compatible with Factory Crossbars on 2020 Toyota RAV4
    Most crossbars (both factory and aftermarket) have a slight bow at the center. This is completely normal. The Rhino-Rack Universal Pioneer Platform Rack # RR42115BF is compatible with round, square, aero, elliptical, and most factory crossbars. The platform itself does not sit directly on the top of your crossbars. There top mounting brackets sit between the top of your crossbar and the bottom of the Pioneer platform.

    We can set your 2021 Toyota RAV4 up with a platform rack, and the XLE model should have flush-mounted side rails (as opposed to raised side rails), which the rack will attach to. The best option for a platform rack is from Rhino-Rack: - Rhino-Rack Pioneer Platform Rack # RR55FM I like the Pioneer for a number of reasons, starting with its large 52" long x 49" wide size, as well as the numerous options for securing your cargo, such as the Accessory Bars # RR43138B and Eye Bolt Kit # RR43178.

The top of the channel measures 0.43 inches wide. As for the hardware that installs in to the channel, those vary in size. What is important is just that they fit into the channel and can be tightened down. A good example of some mounting hardware is the Eye Bolt Kit for Rhino-Rack Pioneer Platform Rack # RR43178.

  • Best Platform Roof Rack for 2020 Chevy Suburban
    A platform roof rack is a great way to carry cargo on your 2020 Chevy Suburban, and the best option for a platform rack that fits your Suburban is the Rhino-Rack Pioneer Platform Rack # RR68AB. The reason this is the best platform rack is because at 84" long x 56" wide it has a larger surface than any other platform for your Suburban, giving you the ability to carry more gear than any other option. The Pioneer is also unique because it has so many different accessories available which...

It is important to note that these two parts are only designed for 2021 Toyota Tundras with a short bed.
