Definitely one of the better install instructions provided in any product I’ve purchased. It was really Sketchy to drill into my jeeps hardtop but it was easy and with no problems.
Looking good Jon and Nicole! I like how the kit comes with the drill guides, helping you make perpendicular holes for a nice clean install (even with a small little misalignment). Four hours sounds about right, I’m sure the instructions don’t factor recording time into install time!
I had the same issue with the middle assembly fitment but mine was on the drives side. The passages side went in just fine. I also had to oblong the holes on the middle backbone bracket so that the bolts would line up. How has everything held up so far?
My rhino rack is on the way and I was able to score a used Smittybilt Overland Tent. My plan is to put in the vortex cross bars and the tent's included brackets should have no problem with that.

Nicholas Lucia thank you! A quality product for sure.
Thanks for the tutorial!
Getting ready to do mine.

Hey Jon, thanks for the excellent video.
What are the dimensions of the pioneer platform, that fit the JL Wrangler the best?
Definitely a pretty clean installation, I like your thorough instructions step-by-step. Question do you plan on installing a tent?

I put a roofnest roof top tent on top of the pioneer platform
Pretty good vid! What did you pair this RR Backbone set up to? The 2 or 3 VORTEX cross bars or the Pioneer flat rack?
The pioneer platform
Awesome vid
