Secure Gear with Rightline Sport Jr Cargo Carrier

Quick answer

To secure gear with the Rightline Sport Jr Cargo Carrier, attach it to your vehicle using the included straps and car clips, then load and tie down your items.

Installation steps

1. Prepare your vehicle: Clean the door frame weather molding where the Car Clips will attach. If you have a roof rack, you can use the straps directly around the rack bars instead. Dirt or moisture on the molding can reduce clip grip.
2. Attach the Car Clips: Open each Car Clip and hook it over the top edge of the door frame weather molding. Close the clip securely. Repeat for all four corners of the carrier. Ensure clips are fully closed and seated on the molding, not on the painted metal.
3. Position the carrier on the roof: Place the carrier on the roof with the open side facing up. Adjust it so it sits centered and does not block your view. Avoid overhanging the sides; it can catch wind and shift.
4. Tighten the straps: Thread the straps through the carrier's D-rings and pull them tight. Use the buckles to cinch the carrier down evenly on all sides. Uneven tension can cause the carrier to sag or flap.
5. Load your gear: Place your camping gear inside the carrier. Distribute weight evenly and avoid sharp objects that could puncture the mesh. Overloading one side can make the carrier unstable.
6. Secure the load with additional tie-downs: Use bungee cords or straps to tie down loose items inside the carrier. Close the carrier's cover if your model has one. Even with a waterproof carrier, loose items can shift and damage the mesh.
