for the hi-lift I used the 4x rack mount which is just the hi-lift brand accessorie. I had my spare mounted up top when we stored the tent. Just strapped down with some basic ratchet straps, and ran a security cable with a lock to slow down thieves. As for Maxtrax, I mounted on the driver’s side of the rack using KB Voodoo’s house made mounts.
Those look sexy!I have the Hi Rise Crossbars. I like that they can mount over a tonneau cover, specifically a DiamondBack cover which I have. Here’s pictures of the hardware and cross bars after I opened them, they arrived quick.
Here’s how they look installed. I originally put one cross bar over the front panel and one over the back panel of my cover. However this blocks the panels from being able to fully open, so I moved them to both go over just the front panel leaving the back panel able to operate as intended.
My plan is to use them for now to mount my Maxrax and maybe a shovel or something and eventually possibly a RTT
Got my hi rise cross bars over my diamond back installed. Front runner RTT mounted to that with plenty of room to mount Rhino Racks hi lift brackets
Do you have any pictures of the rhino rack on top of your crossbars?
I want to get one of those pulley systems that attach to the garage ceiling so I can u bolt the cross bars and just lift away.
Love those tires.
Ready to go for the next few weeks.

I'm ready to go for the weekend. Mojave!
What is your current process for removing the RTT?
I leave the RTT bolted to the crossbars. I remove 4 tamper proof bolts (circled below) then I get my son to help me lift the whole thing off the vertical risers and I store it in my garage. I marked where the risers need to be on my bed rail so that I can have them in the correct position when it's time to put them on.
Thank you for this. Seems a bit easier/faster than the flat bars I’m using. I think I’m gonna get these.I leave the RTT bolted to the crossbars.

What bracket is that? I was thinking about just mounting it to the holes on the side but that looks way better
Those are the rhino rack mounts.

Yeah you can use these without a tonneau cover
