- Hey Legends,
I get asked lots of questions on Social Media on which platforms I run on my 23. So the best way to help answer these questions is to pull a VLOG together.
Detailing the platform and accessories I run with some extra back ground on why I choose to run this system.
Yakima's Lock N' Load Platforms with the suite of accessories is an incredible product designed here in Australia for our harshest conditions.
You can find out more about the Lock N' Load Platform on Yakima's website www.yakima.com.au & to find your local stockist of products across the country.

Just brought one because of this review, cheers mate
Aaron S Hey mate ! Thanks for watching and wow really appreciate your feedback. To gain confidence from my review and purchase I’m truly humbled. Thank you ! Have a great day bud 👊🏻😍
Looking good mate. We love this setup and love seeing it out in action. Keep it up!
FYI in the USA the paddle clamps have a different name: Yakima TopGrip: Paddle, Shovel, or Axe Holder Brackets for Roof Rack Crossbars - Universal Mount
Brilliant video, perfect! Keep up the outstanding production value 👏👏
Damion Brown thanks for the great feedback 🙏🏻 wow really means a lot !
Excellent! Nice little video mate, very informative and interesting! Keep up the good work legend! See you on the tracks
4x4 brothers really appreciate the feedback legends. Thanks again for your support. Counting down the sleeps till our next epic adventure 👍🏻
Good job dad!👍🏻🤘🏻
What is the mount for the Aceo'Spades and MaxTrax? I like how it sits on the T-SLOTS and allows you to mount both a paddle/shovel and recovery trax in that configuration.

@@WilEmling Thank you!!
looks sick definitely need to consider for me future 4x4
alex hughes You won’t be disappointed that’s for sure 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻
Where can it be bought in the states
Hey mate thanks for the video do you know if the awning quick release works on the lock and load?
The LockNLoad will finally be released here in the USA. I have a 2011 Xterra looking to replace my original rack, can anybody point me on the right direction on how to do this. Since the xterra has the drop in the front I haven’t heard how I can mount this on so it a complete front to end. Can I mount it on the original drill holes or do it on the gutter?
Any trouble with awning being mounted between the cab and canopy. I'm being told not to do it because of flex. I love your set up and would be great to get some feed back feed back on awning set up.
Hey mate, thanks for your reply & feedback. My setup has definitely evolved plenty since I filmed this a few years ago… The awning has been completely fine & no issues at all spanning across both platforms. I currently have a 270 degree awning mounted and this also is proving to be completely happy. Hope that helps mate.
@@racinsadventures597 Thanks for replying. I have a Yakima platform and mounting a 270 awning. I've seen a later U Tube with the Ironman removable bracket and like that set and brackets
Great set up! Looks like a great rack system. I’m considering it myself. How was installation? Was it riveted in and what is the net weight rating after the cab max, weight of rack, and weight of the components? I’m trying to be super careful so I can get the most on my rack without exceeding the allowable weight especially when offloading.
Hey mate thanks for the review! Where did you go to get it done? Wouldn't mind getting it for my ranger. Cheers!
sick rig, what sort of suspension/lift have you got and wheel and tyre size?
How Do get up there to get everything anything
So 1000$ rack to hold shovel jack water maybe spare
What's the wind noise on the racks like?
I have the same question. Been reading some horrible reviews on the Rhino Rack Pioneer and wanted to know how this Yakima Lock N Load compares to it. It's certainly less expensive, but as for the wind noise design, well, that's unknown.
@@digaum oddly enough I can sorta answer this now. I ended up getting the rhino rack pioneer platform and I cannot hear them over the off-road tires at highway speeds. If your rig ends up getting bigger tyres, bigger exhaust and a snorkel, the wind noise off a roof rack will pretty much just blend into the overall drone.
I don't have personal experience with Yakima but anecdotally I hear they are much the same in sound levels. I don't think it matters if the slats are horizontally oriented (Yakima) or vertically oriented (rhino rack). Both companies sell a wind fairing to attempt to alleviate much the same complaints. Hope that helps mate!
@@JXM777CG Thank you very much, mate.
Yeah, I've read on the product reviews page that many people were still having absolutely horrible wind noise even with the fairing installed, so that has put me off quite a bit. Some reports indicated that having a conversation was impossible in the car, so I guess that the severity of the wind noise depends on the car design and how the aerodynamics of the vehicle "marry" the rack. If you don't mind me asking, what car did you install the Pioneer on?
Thanks!
@@digaum not at all mate, it's on a 2014 Isuzu Dmax. LSM trim so standard level of insulation / sound deadening. I hear you can marginally improve the cabin noise situation if you install a ceiling and floor lining kit from a company like carbuilders.
110kms on the motorway and you can still talk but maybe a tiny bit louder than standard indoor voice and definitely won't be whispering. I will concede that at that stage in a trip I've got the music up and not doing much talking anyway. I agree It has a lot to do with how the shape of your car funnels wind into the gap between your top roof and the platform if whether or not you get a whistle or vibration sound.
@@JXM777CG thanks mate, for the advice. Have a great day and happy new year!
