EEZI-AWN K9 platform rack for Bushtech canopy 1.25m x 1.4m

A Platform Rack Built to Match NZ’s Strongest Canopy
 
When you’re running NZ’s strongest aluminium canopy, the platform rack above it needs to be engineered to the same standard. This fully welded aluminium platform rack is purpose-matched to Bushtech canopies, delivering exceptional strength, durability, and load-carrying versatility - whether the vehicle is used for trade during the week and touring, overlanding, or expedition travel outside of work.
 
This is a complete, bolt-on system supplied with four sets of powder-coated stainless steel legs and all fasteners. The rack mounts directly into the heavy-duty roof tracks that are standard on every Bushtech canopy — no drilling, no modification, and no compromises.
 
“All up, the K9 is the most versatile, practical and rugged rack I’ve ever seen or used. It’s hard to pick a fault with the K9 and I’d give it a 99/100 score.” — 4x4 Australia.
 
Key Features
 
Purpose-Matched Size for Bushtech Canopies
1400 mm long × 1250 mm wide — an ideal footprint for Bushtech double-cab canopies, providing excellent load space without unnecessary overhang.
 
Proven EEZI-AWN Track Mount System
Utilises a proven EEZI-AWN track-mount design. The kit includes the platform rack plus four sets of powder-coated stainless steel legs, engineered to slide directly into Bushtech’s heavy-duty roof tracks.
 
Fully Welded Aluminium Construction
This rack is factory welded into a single rigid structure. The aluminium planks are not bolted, riveted, or held together with plastic or nylon corner inserts — a common weak point on many mainstream racks. Fully welded construction delivers superior strength, long-term durability, and eliminates the need for user assembly.
 
Unmatched Load-Securing Flexibility
Each plank features twin 8 mm mounting slots, with an additional continuous 6 mm slot running around the entire perimeter of the rack. This allows loads to be secured exactly where needed, rather than being limited to fixed mounting points.
 
Standard or Short Leg Options Available
The rack can be supplied with either standard-height or short legs, depending on your overall vehicle setup. Short legs are ideal when you want to level the canopy rack with a roof rack mounted on the ute cab. Standard-height legs allow a deliberate height offset — commonly preferred in some overland and expedition builds involving hard shell roof tents.
 
Extensive Accessory Ecosystem
A wide range of purpose-built accessories is available, including mounts for shovels, Maxtrax, spare wheels, jerry cans, Hi-Lift jacks, awnings, and more. For a simple and cost-effective setup, EEZI-AWN eye bolts can be mounted anywhere on the rack — including the perimeter — and used with standard ratchet straps.
 
Proven in Harsh Environments
Designed and tested in African conditions where durability is not optional. This is a genuinely expedition-grade platform rack, proven well beyond recreational use.
 
Simple Home Installation
Bushtech canopies are supplied with heavy-duty roof tracks as standard. Installation is straightforward and requires only a 13 mm spanner and an Allen key.
