- This is my 2020 pajero sport. I’m taking you through the installation of a rhino rack pioneer platform system with backbone sides. The 2020 pajero sport has the extra fun at the back so I show you how to install the platform around the fin.
Tools used are:
13mm ratchet spanner from gearwrench
10mm universal spanner from bahco
Milwaukee impact driver
Little giants king kombo ladder
Total time for the installation was 1.5hrs.

Thank you. I followed your handy hints on my install this weekend. Cheers
The correct model of backbone is now available from Rhino. I'll be installing mine tomorrow!
That’s great to hear. I’ll add that to the notes. Do you know what the model number is?
Hey, what's the part number for the correct backbone? and does it clear the rear aerial? Cheers
Enjoyed your video. Look forward to see what accessories you add.
Amazing install video. This inspires me to be able to diy
Nice, pretty easy installation. Not bad the Rhino, got my eye on the new ARB base rack system, real low profile which is what I like.
I was looking at the arb systems when I bought this. They weren’t fully released yet at the time. They look great and have some good accessories
@secfeed6987 you mean the ARB is more slimline/lower than the rhino?
Hi mate great video. Today I went to purchase this set up, however rhino racks are apparently redesigning the backbone system for this model due to them ripping off from the mounting plates. (New design apparently will use all the mounting points on the vehicle)
My question is if you have any issues to date with this set up. TIA
Hey mate, na I haven’t had any problems. I use it weekly
Where did you get the rubber strips? I went to Mitsubishi dealership in Campbelltown NSW and they said there wasn't any for my 2020 Pajero sport.
Hey mate any chance you can get the three measurements for me. Cheers. Nice work
Thanks for video mate. Really helpful,wonder if this will also the same procedure of installing at PS 2018?One of the 4wd shop here local said they need to drill? Now I’m confused I really wanted to put one on my mod. Thanks heaps again
Thanks. I’m glad it helped. The 2018 PS is the same as the new model from what I understand. The only difference is that they didn’t have the aerial tail at the back so it fits better. Don’t go drilling. I got told by one place that they had to drill. Didn’t want to do that with a new car, so I took it to ARB which is a 4x4 company here in aus. They called rhino rack and confirmed that it didn’t need drilling. I would at least email rhino rack to confirm. Also let me know if you get a rack and if you had to drill. Cheers.
@@AddictedtoTools oh man. Thanks bro really close to go there coz i do really like the backbone. Didn’t check when did you upload this video because I’ve been looking for a video like this like couple of years and there is no video for pS. Thanks to you bro
Thanks mate. Good luck with rack.
Hi,
Thanks for this video. Helps alot and I came across at the right time. Just ordered one and was not sure if it requires drilling holes. Please confirm if (Rhino-Rack 52102 Pioneer Platform (1928mm x 1236mm)
Rhino-Rack RMPB3 Backbone Mounting System - Mitsubishi Pajero Sport) fits Pajero sport 2017? And what are the dimensions for your vehicle in video?
Regards.
Fyi information about the load rating. I don't know if the 2020 is better, but my 2016 PS has a roof load rating of only 80kgs. Take the weight of the tray and backbone off, you are left with around the 50kg mark. Apply the off road reduction for going anywhere off bitumen, you reduce that by another third, so about 32 kg. This has been recently highlighted by youtubers Ronny Dahl and Tyler Thompson
Thanks mate. I have looked at this since. I may have seen the same videos.
At least the backbones of the PS are not pop rivetted on so if you don't exceed the load rating I don't think the issues they had will be the same. I saw their videos and still went ahead with the Rhino Rack based purely on the method of installation. I also do not suffer the apparent wind noise problem a number of others have complained about. So far so good.
It's a shame they put such rediculiously low roof load rating on it. 100kg evenly spread over a rack like that would be completely fine in my books.
For me ,I prefer it over hanging in the front, then you can mount your light to it directly.
I haven’t thrown a light bar up front yet. Do they fit if the rack is sitting back a bit?
Hi, Nice. Have you done any further mods to the rack, i.e. bar light etc? subbed!.
Hey. No not yet. Just more packout. I’ve been looking at light bars but haven’t chosen one yet. I’m looking at at a full length curved light bar atm. Hopefully soon. Cheers for the sub👍
Good Vid young fella. Now you will have to do Kim & John's.🤣
Hey bro, each to their own no hate but just curious why you choose this rhino rack backbone system with a shitty de-rated off road rating of 33-34kg on top vs something similar like a Wedgetail with no de-rating off road and a little bit cheap with bigger platform? Good content though 👌
The M3 cover , does that come with the backbone?
Hi there I have the 2022 outlander aspire. Can I use the same set up as what you have done? What size is that
Shame you couldn't add some type of spacer to clear the shark fin aerial, doesn't look quiet right sitting back like that. What is the wind noise like? Enjoy.
I believe their new models clear the fin. There’s not much noise when there’s nothing on the rack.
@@AddictedtoTools Thanks mate.
Warning, checkout the off road load rating of these..most people are unaware you lose 33% of load rating as soon as you leave sealed road. On Pajero Sport that leaves you with only around 40 kg….the rack itself is 25 kg
Pajero Sport 2020-21 , max roof load of 80kg. So with a 25kg roof rack, you have 55kg to play with. It's actually probably less if your taking that offroad so to be safe you wouldn't be loading much up there. You really need the roof rack to be as light and strong as possible to make it worth while.
@@secfeed6987 not really dude, fine print on this rhino system for Pajero Sport suggest it's only 33-34kg depending on rack and ONCE it hits dirt road/sand or mild offroad to get to certain destination, that leaves you with just an awning and 4 maxtracs/tiny items.
Eg. 1 - family of 5 and you put a decent tent that won't fit in the boot like an oztent rx5 that needs to be carried on the roof, you won't be able to with the dangers of it ripping off.
Eg. 2 - let's say you love touring and get out to your destination and like to explore by off roading, with this system on a Pajero Sport that only has 68L of fuel you can't even get 2 fuel jerry cans up there and only limited to 1 and if you do bring one, say goodbye to an awning because youre classed as over weight with a fuel jerry can and an awning that together Exceeds (no pun intended) past it's off road rating of 33-34kg.
@@StopTimeToEnjoy yep 33kg and given the price. Not great! What is worst they do not make this off-road rating ready available.
hi , does it have wind noise if the speed goes over 120km/h
Great vid. Can you let me know the size of this rack, and the name of the rail cover strips please?
Sorry mate, I thought I posted that.
The backbone is RMPB2
The rack is 44102B Pioneer SX Platform (1928mm x 1236mm)
@@AddictedtoTools Thanks heaps. And the black rubber strips that filled the empty rails?
The black strips come with the backbone kit. 👍
Can you give the link ( or the Name of store) from wich i can buy. Thanks
Hi there, someone told me the backbone creates a bit of noise with the frame of the vehicle, whats your opinion? cheers
hi , what size rack did you put on . thanks
Very nice info which I need. Thank you.
Bro question, did you experience heavy rain? There are any possible the rain water comes true inside the car? Thanks mate im just planing also to my Pajerosports21
Hey mate. I’ve never had water problems. It’s been in very heavy rain.
@@AddictedtoTools oh cool thanks mate, mate? How about the platform it’s already assembled before you purchase or disable and you did by your self though?
Yeah it comes in one large piece. I also bought it myself 👍
@@AddictedtoTools cheers mate, you give me confidence to buy Rhino.
Because before im on 40% 😅conference to buy I heard that they need to drill inside to make a hole for the backbone and i said WTF if that case Bye for roofrack. 😁😁😁
I got told the same thing! Autobarn here in brisbane said I’d have to drill and rivet it to my new car. I laughed and walked out. I went to ARB and they said it fits easy with the kit so I bought it and had no problems. Definitely don’t put holes In the roof
hey mate, do you know if #rhinorack are aware of the antenna clearance issue with the 2020 model and if there's a solution on the way?
in addition.. with a rear spoiler it looks like you'd have to over-hang the platform on the front to avoid contact when the tail-gate opens
Hey mate. I’ve spoken to the guys at rhino rack. They know about it. They were working on a solution for it at the time. This was around 3 months ago or so. So hopefully they can do something to suit. And yes you’re very correct. If I had the spoiler, the over hang would have to be at the front otherwise it would clash. Cheers.
Very video mate💪😉👍
Thanks mate. 👍
What is the height of your vehicle top of rack to floor?
Thank you
Do you get any whistle or rattle
There’s no rattle. Only a little wind noise.
@@AddictedtoTools enough whistle to be annoying?
I drive it daily and don’t really notice it. I also have a good amount of gear on top for work.
@@AddictedtoTools thanks
How much height does it put on PS?
The platform sits 90mm above the roof overall. That’s 40mm higher than the original rains that comes with the car.
@@AddictedtoTools legend
Any time mate🍻
I'd love one for my PS but they are just so bloody expensive. I can understand the price of the rack but the backbones are just a rip off!
they definitely are expensive. not sure why
Hard to hear what you are saying with music mate or at least distracting.
