AVC RIG carries the Rover Vans Transit accessory rack for the passenger side rear door of your Ford Transit. Rover Vans took everything they learned from their original Transit accessory rack and made it better, with more features and more ways to customize your external storage. The Rover Vans Transit accessory rack handles bikes, skis, recovery gear and more.
Rover Vans Transit Accessory Rack Features
The design works with 4 independent sections of accessory panels and improved single bike prongs to fit a wide range of gear. The accessory panels and bike prongs are offered as a package, or you can buy the rack separately to suit your needs and save money. Use it for bikes, skis, recovery gear, and more.
The bracket mounting design comes from the Rover Vans tire carrier, re-engineered to make installation easy and secure for DIYers and professionals alike. The main supports bolt directly to the stock rear door hinges, and a safety strap system keeps the rack from damaging your van while the rear door is open.
Note: after extensive testing, Rover Vans found the new drill-through center bracket greatly reduces wear and vibration in both the rack and your van for a stronger, more durable product.
Details
- Can support 150 lbs. of evenly distributed weight while the van is in motion.
- Doors should close easily, not slam shut.
- Each bike and holding rack is ~50 lbs. Additional weight is added for e-bikes.
