Robust Construction and Weight Capacity
The rucRak GRUNT is engineered for strength and reliability. When used with the included load handler, this system boasts a 125 lb weight capacity for cargo and bikes. The load handler is a crucial component, designed to distribute the weight and minimize stress on your tailgate and tire carrier, especially when carrying heavier loads.
Important Load Handler Disclaimer: Always use the Load Handler when carrying cargo or bikes on your rucRak GRUNT.

While you can operate the rucRak GRUNT without the load handler when empty (for towing or improved departure angle during serious off-roading), it is not recommended for loaded use.
