Martin offroad rack!

Got it on this today. Trying to decide if the spare is gonna stay there.

 

Nice! I got my topper rack on Friday and put it in today. Looks pretty good. Might add a washer or two as a spacer to the back of the cab rack. Does your shark fin stick up above the cab rack at all? Mine is maybe 1/4-3/8 above and the front rack is just slightly lower than the topper rack where they face each other (back if cab front of bed). Not by much. I like them. Great quality.

 

Yours looks good. I debated a topper but decided to go with a RTT. I think my fin is flush or just below the rear rail. The spare didn't touch it when I threw it up there. I'll have to look at it again tomorrow.

 

Take a look and let me know. Mine isn’t sticking up much, but it is slightly above the rails. I’ll probably try to figure something out before I’m sliding a kayak or canoe up there. I’d move the tire if I were you. That’s a lot of weight up there all the time and a lot of wind resistance. I see you put the front part of the drip molding on. Are you going to 3m tape the other sections in? I haven’t cut or drilled my trim. Going to leave it off for now until I decide for sure what I’m going to do.

 

these might be a solution for you

I did it on my gen2. Works/looks great. I can’t find good photos though.

 

Here is my fin in reference to the crossbars. It’s not much but I doubt the fin is sturdy. Those low profile covers look okay although overpriced. Looks like the original is 2g only. The side shooter or whatever says it’ll fit my 2019.

 

Just below maybe 1/8 or less. Tried to get a good pic but it's raining today.

 

Do they give out coupon codes?

 

They did for Black Friday, but the prices are about $200 lower than others from what I saw. I was initially looking at a different rack, but they are all pretty much the same and I liked the mountains cutout presumably for Martin . The packaging and everything was well done. All the threads were perfect on the crossbars etc. Could always inquire through the website. Turnaround was pretty fast on my racks.

 

Installed mine last weekend on my 2020 TRDOR and it looks great and is solid. Only issue I had was I could not mount the rear crossbar (even vertically) cause it was hitting on the shark fin. I sent him an email but haven't heard back yet.

If I have to I'll use the totallyrad sharkfin cover but I'd like to see if he offers any solutions. I've read (can't confirm) the 2020s had the sharkfin moved back slightly so that's probably what's causing it.

Perfect rack for my fishing poles though!

 

Sent you an email back the other day, I believe. Check your spam folder and make sure it didn't get sent there. Either way we'll get you fixed up!

 

Yep, you indeed did message me and thx for getting the new rails for me to make that last crossbar fit!

That's outstanding customer service right there!!

 

Great CS! Gage is working with me on the newly designed brackets for the topper rack. My topper rack is about 1/2" higher than the cab rack. This is likely a result of the variation in fiberglass toppers unit to unit. Fiberglass toppers are layered fiberglass, so its not like a molded part with very strict tolerances so there is a bit of variation unit to unit even for the same make and model. I'm thrilled I went with Martin Off-road racks, and have been extremely happy with everything so far!

 

Maybe you've mention it somewhere, but are there any plans for an access cab rack? In the works?

 

So I ordered one of these today and I can't wait for it to come already. I'm curious where the differences lie between it and the Prinsu though. People are saying it is lower profile, but does that mean the spacers and mounts bring it closer to the roof, or are the sidebars more narrow than the Prinsu? It doesn't matter at this point as I'm sold on the Martin for several reasons, but just my curiosity getting the best of me.

 

Biggest difference i can find is "it's half the freakin price"

 

For sure! Quality, price, and customer service tops everything, and it sounds like Martin Offroad has that all dialed in.

 

Did UPS ever find your rack and or get one in? Saw you were in DFW and was curious to see one in person.

 

What kind of tie down rings go with these? The only ones that I can really find are the female version with the bolt head that slides into the groove slot.
