Accessories/mounts that work with Trailhunter ARB roof rack

[TrailHunterWildstar]

I just got a trailhunter and love it. I was curious about the roof rack and mounting to it. The only other roof rack I've had was a Yakima Load Warrior Basket. Easy to use and pretty universal.

The ARB is really nice, but also a lot different from what I'm used to. What type of mounts would I use with the ARB? I see a fair amount of accessories on the ARB site, but not entirely sure what would fit my rack and what wouldn't. (Are there any other manufacturers that are making things that would be compatible with the ARB rack?)

Thanks!

Curious about this too, especially given the prices of ARB accessories!

Got a reply from ARB. So ARB's Dovetail on the outside of the crossbars, and T-channel accessories should be compatible in the middle.

I bought the ARB base rack propane bottle holder, base rack ratchet strap set, and the 4 piece eyebolt tie down set on Amazon. These accessories worked great with the factory rack. 11 lb. propane bottle is in front of the left tub.

Thanks for posting these pics! TBH the setup was a little confusing for me at first with how the anchors are supposed to work, but I see it now.

Looks like that dovetail setup can work on any cross bar as well as the outside of the rack which is really nice!

Im going to order some of those tie down kits or sure, thanks again!

Do you know if those T channel pieces are designed to fit the slots in the crossbars? Having a hard time finding anything actually mounted up to them. All of ARB's pics seem to show stufff strapped to the dovetail.

THanks!

ARB sells quick release pins for recovery boards that are t-slot. The cool thing about Amazon is, order it and see if they work. If not, send it back. I'm going to order some of the load stop t slot for crossbars.
