Rhino-Rack 2500 Pad & Clamp Kit A precision-engineered vehicle-specific fitting kit designed to provide a secure, custom-contoured foundation for the Rhino-Rack 2500 roof rack system on vehicles without pre-existing mounting points or roof rails.
The Rhino-Rack 2500 Pad & Clamp Kit is the critical interface between your vehicle's roofline and your roof rack system. Recognising that every vehicle has a unique aerodynamic profile and door jamb curvature, Rhino-Rack has developed these kits to provide a tailored fit that maximises contact surface area and load distribution. The kit includes four specialised rubber pads and four custom-shaped metal clamps, each designed to grip the roof edge firmly without causing damage to the paintwork or body panels. This "no-drill" solution allows for a robust, high-capacity rack installation that can be removed whenever necessary, making it an ideal choice for lease vehicles or owners who value versatility.
