Sherpa Offset Traction Board Mount — The Ultimate Space-Saving Recovery Solution

Recovery boards are essential for any off-road excursion, but they often take up valuable real estate on top of your roof rack. The Sherpa Offset Traction Board Mount is engineered to solve this problem by shifting your boards outward, hanging them off the side of your rack. This "offset" design clears up the center of your rack for bulky items like rooftop tents, storage boxes, or kayaks, while keeping your recovery boards easily accessible for when the trail gets tough.

Proudly made in the USA (Colorado), these mounts are laser-cut from high-quality aluminum and finished in a durable black textured powder coat. Designed specifically for Sherpa’s "The Peak Series" racks, these mounts utilize the modular T-slot channels to provide a rock-solid attachment point. Whether you are navigating deep sand or thick mud, having your boards mounted on the side ensures you can grab them in seconds without having to climb onto your roof or move other gear.

Precision Engineering & Universal Compatibility

Sherpa is known for "Adventure with Confidence" build quality, and these mounts are no exception. The offset brackets are designed to accommodate the most popular recovery boards on the market, including Maxtrax MKII, Maxtrax Xtreme, and TRED Pro. The brackets feature multiple mounting holes and slots, allowing you to adjust the height and positioning of the boards to perfectly align with your vehicle's silhouette and ensure they don't interfere with doors or windows.

Low-Profile & High-Strength

By using heavy-duty aluminum instead of steel, Sherpa has created a mount that is incredibly strong yet lightweight, preventing unnecessary top-heavy weight on your rack. The low-profile design ensures that even though the boards are offset to the side, they remain tucked close to the rack to minimize wind noise and prevent snagging on tight, overgrown trails. This balance of strength and slim design makes it one of the most popular accessories for Sherpa rack owners.

Simple, Bolt-On Installation

Installation is a straightforward process that requires no drilling or permanent modification. The mount bolts directly into the side profile or crossbars of your Sherpa roof rack using the included stainless steel hardware. The kit is sold as a pair (two brackets), providing everything you need to secure a set of two or four traction boards. Simply add your brand-specific mounting pins (like Maxtrax pins), and you are ready for the trail.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this include the mounting pins?

No. These are the structural brackets that attach to your rack. You will still need the specific mounting pins designed for your brand of boards (e.g., Maxtrax Mounting Pins).

Will these work with other rack brands?

While designed specifically for Sherpa racks, these mounts are highly compatible with most roof racks that utilize standard T-slot crossbars or side rails.

How many boards can I mount?

This depends on the length of the mounting pins you use. With standard pins, you can typically mount two boards; with extended pins, you can mount a stack of four.
