Title sums up question. Wondering if anyone has used these (specifically with a roofnest falcon would be great).

the mounting channels of my RTT just cant quite line up to the pioneer platform quite right. the offset of these may give me the orientation I need. I've conjured up a couple DIY ideas, but this off the shelf may be easier. Thanks in advance.

While not the same RTT, I thought it might give you some ideas. I used superstrut to resolve the mismatch in channels / mounting locations. It is also fairly low profile at less than 3/4" for the superstrut. See the bottom of my post for more info and pics. Most of my DIY turns into a nightmare but this worked exactly right the first time and less than $30 in parts at Home Depot.

I have the platform and I don't have a RTT, but I have a Thule w the 'claw' style that this product may be perfect for, thank you!

I just bough them to attempt to mount a skycamp 3.0 on my RR pioneer long rack on my JLUR. I'll let you know how it goes.

How do these brackets attach to the Pioneer Platform? Do you have any pictures? Thanks!
Sorry I don’t have any pictures and my iKamper is now on my trailer on a different rack. This Mount doesn’t bolt to the pioneer rack, it’a a clamp that clamps onto the pioneer rack crossbars.

I use the rhino rack mounts. I hate them. It leaves a 2-3" gap between the RTT and platform.

Can you just drill new holes in the RTT and move one rail (or both) to coincide with slat-spread on the RR Platform. That was my answer in mounting my CVT (pioneer=Traditional RTT).. Been years and no issue. I take it off after each trip, prob 5x per year. . Sometimes folks only need to move one rail a few inches, I moved both to align and keep 100% centered. I'm sure not an answer for all RTTs...
