I am wondering if the platforms that Ford sells on their parts site are made of gold?
I'm looking at aftermarket platforms and wanted to see if i could get any suggestions?
Ford Bronco Roof Platform options 1627656705456

My first time seeing the Bronco in person was at the OKC auto show and they had the loaded out black badlands with the wench and roof rack loaded up. I knew after seeing the size of the back compartment that i would need additional storage. Need a place for my huge tent that broke down is about 6 foot tall.

I have found some options that are cheaper and some that are really ugly.

The main requirement I have is that it doesn't cover the two front roof panels. So i do want the smaller one.

I do like the stubby roof rails/mount points in that pic of the modular roof. As far as I know, there’s not a mount point on the MIC right behind the removable panel. I believe the roof rails have to be removed to take off the panel.

Ford does sell the more universal style too. The Yakima platform is the whole modular style.
Man that seems like it rides really high, I would worry about trying to get into my garage with that. my garage door opening is about 7 ft. Also sasquatch is a factor, Im sure North7 has some measurements somewhere. lol Good Price though, thank you~!

There is a Bronco Nation video where they remove the panels with the rails in place. You just have to slide them out.

Not sure if this is it, but it def. shows the panels removed on a unit with roof rails.

Just realized you can remove the front part on the 4 door and keep the back, non squatch from factory of course. Seen in this video with retractable soft top add on. The fishing trip model in background.

The 4 door as 2 crossbar only mount locations... The 2 door needs rails to have 2 crossbars.

Yeah, hey Bud, who makes the rack you picked up on Amazon?

I am getting the roof rails on my Badlands and will need to put my MaxTrax, Hub tent, Water, and shovel up top.

Just trying to plan ahead since the ford option for the Yakima Platform is pricey.

I don't like that the rack itself uses about 50% of the roofs dynamic capacity 😕
