Rear cargo rack

Kfer · June 2018

Has anyone tried to install some type of cargo platform or rack on the rear of the Outback? I am looking for ways to carry folding chairs and tables. Our Outback carries the tire on the rear and we also carry 2 bikes on bike rails along side the tire rack.
Thanks

Lots of different people have creative racks: https://www.google.com/search?ei=Z7UtW9KkAZeU0PEPvqK7qAQ&q=outback+cargo+rack+site:tab-rv.vanillaforums.com&oq=outback+cargo+rack+site:tab-rv.vanillaforums.com&gs_l=psy-ab.3...2760.7971.0.8587.34.26.0.0.0.0.129.1670.24j2.26.0....0...1c.1.64.psy-ab..14.0.0....0.qgAC2WpkGbM

Thanks...already have the basket for the spare tire and rails added for our bikes.....looking to somehow add perhaps a “bumper” or rail to the back of the tab so we can secure some type of cargo carrier without a hitch....

The frames on the T@B’s are not made so that they can support any type of any additional attachments to carry cargo .

A search for bike racks will bring up many discussions on how other T@B owners have added a bike rack to the front tongue, or added a roof rack to their tow vehicle to carry additional equipment.

I have a roof rack on my truck shell to carry my 25 gallon Blue Boy and an outside rug, and it works well. It also stays within the manufacturers stated weight limits.

I believe the rack has only 25 lbs. of extra capacity after factoring in the basket and spare tire.

I would be very hesitant to add any weight to the rear of the Outback/Boondock models, it can cause towing issues and severe fish tailing if the weight is not properly distributed. Weight on the frount is not as critical.
