ally extrusion for rhino racks - where to get ??

Post by bradley »

hi all, just a quick one;

i am looking to make up some custom add-ons for my rhino racks (tradesman) and also some custom racks in the rear of the jack, i would like to use the same square section tube that they use with the captive nut relief in them, so i can keep uniformity with the add-on eyelets and brackets etc.

Does anyone know if this is available as raw stock, or is it an "exclusive extrusion"

cheers all, Brad.

Yeh, I use the unistrut for work too, but again only is steel, noy in aluminium. Try builders supplies or electrical supplies wholesalers.

I'm sure you could order it if you visit a rhino stockist, there is a much larger dealer catalogue of parts available than what’s listed on the rhino website
