Rhino Rack made where?

[Plongson]

I sure like the look of the Rhino-Rack Backbone and modular rack system but...although an Australian company, ARE THEY MADE IN CHINA?? I sent them a note and have not heard back...prolly not a good sign.

I'd love to spend my $$ anywhere but frigg'n China when given the option.

Yes. The actual platforms at least are Made in China.

I'd say with near certainty the platform is made in china. It is decent quality. Its a compromise between weight and quality. I was a bit disappointed that all the hold down clips were plastic. There are a couple dozen of them and the clips are a critical connection point. They appear plenty strong. Just not sure they will hold up in the long run in the sun. I made new ones out of aluminum since I repositioned the platform slats to mate with my RTT through the internal ribbing not just through some un-reinforced part of the floor.
I'd give a good look at the Maximus-3 brackets. They are as low profile as you can get.

Well, I guess Rhino- Rack is off my list...too bad, it was the top contender.
