    From owning a frontrunner, I could tell you that most accessories that work using the tslots will be compatible. You'll just need new bolts. I'll be running my RTT mount on my new prinsu

    That's what I was hoping for, good to know cause front runner tends to have heaps of different mount options for their racks. Will be rad to be able to incorporate them into a prinsu rack.

    A lot of frontrunners run off the side rails which Prinsu doesn't have. You may be able to modify them to do that though.

    A lot of their accessories use the t slots though, and those should be fairly interchangeable between the two.

    Don't/wont have my prinsu for a couple of weeks due to lead time so I'm still unfamiliar with how modular the rack is. On the front runner rack I just sold everything was very rigid (Crossbeams were set and unable to move or adjust). Is it the same way on the Prinsu, do the crossbeams slide and lock into place to accommodate for different accessories?

    Prinsu you can move the crossbars almost anywhere so the frontrunner accessories should be easily made to work.

    Thanks man!

    Hey I just looked at the tire mount on FR site, I'm 99% sure you could get that to work with a prinsu rack.

    Should be able to space the crossbars out correctly to make this work.

    It seems good to me aswell, FR also has an alternate mount aswell with a wider base that would also give me a potential option if the low profile one isn't the right fitment.

    Hoping to mount some maxtrax, a 42" plano case, my tent, an awning, and my axe to mine. Really looking forward to having the extra real estate up there.

    What kind of axe? Odd I am more interested in the axe then the rest of the stuff, sadly I am a bit of an axe nut. Just tell me it is not a fiskars and we can be friends.

    9 1/2 weeks. And I'm missing the rails for the toprack. So I guess I'm still waiting. I can get the cabrack on this weekend I think.

    Wow... Very frustrating. I want to purchase this rack but reviews around lead times and order accuracy has me worried. Sorry to hear

    Its a great product and I would argue its worth the wait. If you know upfront its going to take a while, dont have the expectation to have it ASAP. And if there are any issues with your order Zach will make it right.

    I think what we're hearing is the website says 4 weeks and in reality it's much longer. Thank you for the good feedback as it's a nice looking product
