Yep, what about removing it? Is it something you leave on all the time, or can you take it off with out too much fuss?

The Gobi is a great looking rack but bloody hell it's expensive if you are on a budget. How does it go if you want to fit a shade set up on it I wonder. The beauty of Rhino is all the fittings that they have for them.

Hello Shannon...Weren't sure if you were a Yanky when I read your post and saw TIRE instead of TYRE..Would love to see the shipping docket if it's possibe.

Also guess I'm lucky, I bought a set of 4 brand new from Jax Tyres for $400 the lot.. The Jax outlet was changing brand new Grands to 22" so had a plie to sell....He did freight nationwide so anyone interested I can give them a phone number to to call ...Why anyone would put 22" on a 4x4 beats me unless they're after a Mall Crawler..I'd rather have 17" if I had a choice like on US models but our Euro version has bigger heavy duty discs so 17" would take some doing to fit.

I've had another look at my Rhino Rack 1580x1295 tray and decided to fit a 3rd crossbar in the centre..I'll have to make a standoff mounting bracket similar to the WK2 leg kit but slightly lower to take in the curve..About 5mm roughly..Some trial & error will do it...The centre point appears to be a lot more solid than the front...I still like the Rocky Road Steel Rails and will do it if the freight is reasonable.
