Rack install in the 209

Can anyone recommend a good shop to have a rhino racks vortex rlt600 track mount or prinsu rack installed On my 2020 double cab in the 209 area, I’m in Modesto to be specific.

 

Those should be simple installs. Maybe watch a couple YouTube videos and DIY?

 

the vortex track mount, which is the rack I’ll most likely go with requires drilling and riveting into the cab of the truck. I just don’t trust myself enough to drill into my truck.

 

Never heard of it, but I'd avoid a rack like that. GL

 

i have a 2020 and with the shark fin moved forward, a lot of permanently mounted racks won’t fit. Like the OEM rack which is what I had originally intended to get. The Prinsu is a bit more than what I need as all I will be doing is hauling my stand up paddle board. Also I hear it’s pretty loud and I spend a huge portion of my time on the freeway. The Rhino Racks vortex RLT600 track mount seems to be my next best option to the OEM rack.

 

Ahh, third gen...

You could always trim the sharkfin like I'm about to do.

 

Please let me know how this turns out.

Thanks, yours is the thread I looked at earlier in the month which made me decide I didn’t have the tools or skill level to attempt this myself.

 

All you really need is a rivet gun. Might be able to rent one at a local auto parts store. It's really not a difficult install.

 

I may have to attempt it myself. But still hoping to find a local shop.

 

If you don't mind driving to Sac I cant recommend Stella Built enough
