As comfortable as 4X4s are, it’s hard to argue with the outright capability of side by sides. Their compact footprint, rugged drivelines and low weight make them perfect for just about every off-road activity. 4X4ers love them for their insane ability to go anywhere. Hunters love them for their ability to go deep into the back country. And Farmers love them as a mobile workhorse. The only thing they don’t excel at is load carrying, there’s simply not enough places to put all your kit. An unusual union aims to fix that, with Aussie based Rhino-Rack providing the missing link for U.S. based Polaris with storage solutions for their more utilitarian models.
The General
The General fills the…well… general roll for Polaris, and Rhino-Rack has spec’d it up similarly. The all new ‘lock and ride’ Bed Rack from Rhino-Rack bulks up The General’s storage with a quick release, super lightweight alloy rack fitting directly to the bed of The General without any additional mounts. It sports al the typical versatility with Rhino-Rack’s unique channel style platform allowing for their full suite of accessories, and fits both the 1000/4 ’16-’22 model and the XP1000/4 ’20-’22.
The Ranger
The workhorse of the Polaris lineup, The Ranger receives a workhorse of a Rhino-Rack storage system too. A unique bed rack slots perfectly above the rear tub on both 3 seat and crew cab models. It’ll also fit perfectly as a roof rack up top on the three seat model. A larger rack is available for full roof coverage on the longer crew cab model. Both racks can be easily bolted in with a variety of roof and tub mounts to suit the specific model.
The Accessories
It wouldn’t be a Rhino-Rack launch without a laundry list of accessories, and the Polaris lineup is no different. As well as a whole host of mounting options, Rhino-Rack have bolt ons big and small to suit your needs. From tie-down eyelets, to spare tyre mounts. There’s even a secure gun mount option for hunters and farmers, while the traction board mount will be sure to catch the attention of 4X4ers on both sides of the globe.
