Rhino Rack on a new Defender
#11
I have the front runner and they are in stock. For the full length, the rails need to be removed. There are tons of accessories u can fit to a front runner, probably the most on the market. Mine to taken up with a large roof top tent and my 270 degree Overland pros awning bolted on easily.

Hi, I am down here in Australia. I have heard that the LR expedition rack is very noisy. Would really like a Rhino but not available yet. Want to go for the Frontrunner but told can't fit full length rack to Defender with factory rails. Spoke to Frontrunner here and they said the LR rails are difficult to remove. Is this true? And if they are removed are there fixings easily available?

Some people have had problems removing the bolts that hold the rails in place where the nutsert breaks loose and spins, necessitating a lengthy and difficult process to fix. I was lucky and had no problems using an impact wrench. You might want to investigate induction bolt heaters as a way to loosen the thread lock before trying to remove each bolt.
