I like the size of this rack Ford has on the accessories site: VM2DZ7855100C - it looks like it fits pretty perfectly over rear portion of the hardtop. I plan on running it the same way as the pic below with Mabett's new crossbars.

I assumed it was just the regular Yakima lock n load rack, but I'm wondering if maybe it's a custom size for Bronco. I believe the smallest lock n load Yakima sells is 55x49 which seems bigger than this one. Has anybody ordered this rack from Ford and can confirm actual dimensions? I don't see dimensions listed anywhere for it on Ford's site šŸ§

That listing is simply for the flat platform piece. It would be mounted to crossbars

Yes. I'm asking if anybody knows what the actual size of the platform is since Ford doesn't list that info - they only refer to it as "small" on the product listing

Oh sorry, I do think thatā€™s the 55x49 sizeā€¦ I saw you typed rack and thought you meant the entire thing.

Could also be the 60x54

Those measurements just don't visually reconcile with the photo. I'm with the OP and have wondered the same thing so I'm bumping this.. Has anybody ordered this exact product and if so can you please confirm the rack's dimensions?

I have the Yakima LockNLoad "K" platform which is the same as the Ford accessory item and it is the same as the one listed by ATLBronco75.

Here are a few pics with it on my 2 door.

Also if you buy the platform by itself, you will also need to purchase qty. 2, LockNLoad Crossbar Clamps for Roof Rack Systems. Each package has 2 mounting clamps and you will need 4. Amazon link for reference.

Did we ever figure out if Yakima has a small
Platform that fits just over top of the rear cap? Iā€™m getting the trailrax half rack and want just a platform over the cap as shown in the concept photos.

@alancorman1 Here you go. The first rail in the front lines up just behind the line of the hard top. I can take better close ups later if needed but this should help.

That should do it. Thank you. I didnā€™t get an alert that you replied is the cause for the delay in responding.
