I'm looking for a decent rear rack so I can carry a saw and some other stuff with me while I'm out on my trails. Has anybody used this one I found on Ebay? I'm looking for the most sturdy and useful one available. Thanks!

I tried to link it but it gave me the old "error on page" deal.

 

I'm not sure but I think quadboss is the only place that makes rear racks for a raptor. Just remeber to check what you could buy on for regular retail before you buy the one off of ebay. I buy alot of stuff off of ebay but only when the price is equal to or less than retail. Some people don't check and pay more for stuff on ebay than they would have had to pay at a regular cycle shop. I havent used on but most quadboss stuff I have seen is built tough.

 

I have got the out and back rack. Its great!

Thanks for the quick responses. I'm looking for something solid that I could strap a chainsaw to if need be. Also, how strong are the mounting points of these things. I really wouldn't want to put one on only to have it bend the frame (or wherever it mounts to).

 

That subframe is alluminum. Despite what the rack is rated for, dont underestimate the weakness of the subframe. I replaced mine once so far at a cost of $340.

 

The mounting points are close together to fit the stock mounts. If you have a look I think they are about 4" apart so there is not a great deal of stress that they will take. I will be tapping a new thread into the frame so that it has more strength.

 

Keep in mind that the frame is cast.
