I personally think y’all crushed it! So much so I am thinking of getting a 3rd Grenny just to have your safari rack!!

Btw, what light bar and side steps are installed on your marketing Grenadier/the one on your website. The wrap is frickin AWESOME as well. I love the map/terrain look obviously, see mine below. Good luck with sales.

What is the overall height on the deck rack? Do you have more pictures?

Will you be offering the safari rack without cut outs for the safari windows?

Nice catch!! Didn’t even pay attention and the one I need this for does not have the SW.

Who makes the red container on passenger side, is it a rotopax? The round holders look different?

No all the exterior stuff on the sides are from “ExpeditionHQ” (see below link). They are in Australia and the shipping can get expensive, just an fyi. They are the only ones who sell the “factory” bull bars (they call em “roo bars” after kangaroos—obviously an issue hitting them over there like us and deer in the US). Absolutely great products and even better customer service. You won’t be disappointed. Ask for my boy Adam, he will take care of you like family!!

Thank you

Thank you

This is their bull/roo bar and side protection bars only made by EHQ I linked above. Now there are plenty of other really good bars made by other vendors, but these are the only “factory” ones. Btw when I mentioned expensive shipping it is only on these bars is when it gets expensive as they are heavy as hell and the US taxes imported steel. But the side exterior accessories were not too bad on shipping as most was plastic. Good luck whichever route you take, but be forewarned once you start down the rabbit hole of adding on accessories there is NO turning back and it can get addictive!!

Benchmark I am truly sorry!! I didn’t even realize until right now that I had posted another vendors info and link in YOUR vendor thread. My excuse, I am not the sharpest tool in the tool box!!

At least it was different products and I don’t think you even sell that other stuff. Still love yalls new roof rack regardless of how empty headed I am sometimes.

Thank you! We used Owl side steps on our Grenadier and installed the Baja Designs OnX6 dual control 50" light bar. Nice looking ride!

I love how the safari rack looks, especially the integrated lights. It all flows well with the body lines of the truck. Looks slick. I like how it keeps access to grab handles open. And that it looks designed for the truck rather than a bolted on multipurpose rack. Thank you for safari window option.

I’ve watched your video on YouTube a few times. Would love to see more up close views or photos. And I recommend more photos on your site of the rack when installed. Especially detail photos of mounts and lights. And an pdf or video of installation instructions.

Can a thin camp table slide under the rack from the back, or does it rest on the rubber pads? what are dimensions? Are there L-track points on sides, deck (yes), and back? Is it easy to mount side lights or rear lights between bars for a clean look for camp site illumination and/or rear lights? What size is bar (1.5”)? Where do wires for the front lights run? Inside pipe? How much does it weigh? Can you buy rack without lights and add them later, or are the dimensions different because of lights? Do the lights rest on the “eyebrow” of the truck, or float?

Looks great! Are the light bar mounts universal? I wouldn’t mind putting an old light bar to use from my Land Cruiser.

Do you have attachments for awnings, rotopax, ski holders, etc?

Interesting that there aren’t more people here who have installed this rack. Unfortunately Benchmarks website isn't the best but the product seems excellent …just wish there was more info/specifics.

How would you fit a roof rack to this - a clamshell one that folds over to the side... I can't work out if that would be possible with the raised bar around the edges.

Nice work! I replaced my Front Runner roof rack for the Benchmark reverse safari rack a few months ago and was blown away with the quality. Highly recommended

That looks good!! More pics and specifics about install and other nuances as an owner please

I ordered one of these racks with the light bar option about a month ago so should be getting it in the next few weeks. I'll certainly post about it in my build thread and will try to remember to post in this one as well.

Sure, because it all welds it’s delivered in one piece. The legs bolt on easily to existing bolts on the grab bars on the roof. I have a ceiling winch so the install literally took me 30 mins. With buddies it’l take about the same time. I got the round KC lights with it and for an extra $300 you can get the wiring harness (recommended) that is pre thread though the tubing.
