All Roof Racks require factory roof rails or equivalent for mounting. Please check your van before ordering.
It has been years in the making, but you cannot rush perfection. :) The Owl Flat-Earth Roof Rack for Sprinter 144" and 170" has been meticulously designed to be the ultimate Sprinter roof rack.
Design: We started with a tubular aluminum design to maximize strength and weight savings. The entire chassis of our rack weighs only 65 lbs! Next, we extended the front to allow ample space for solar, relaxing, or misc gear storage.
Flooring: There is something uniquely special about sitting on the roof of an adventure van and taking in a sunset or stunning view. That's why we wanted to maximize the available space with our innovative modular honeycomb flooring. By making the flooring panels removable, you can tailor the rack to your roof layout without ordering something custom (and waiting months to get it!). For aesthetics and minimizing weight up high, we chose to laser cut our own flooring instead of off-the-shelf perforated aluminum. This allows us to make it lighter and add features not found on other racks.
There are three flooring options so you pay only for what you need:
- Frame only - If you don't want to walk on your roof and instead use it for solar and boxes, etc, we offer the rack as the tubular frame only - $4998
- Frame and Flooring - For vans with Maxair vents and ACs on their roof. This rack includes the frame and floor in the areas not covering the vents and AC. This is the best option for Storyteller, Revel, and GH1 owners - $5998
- Frame and Full Flooring - Maximise your roof space with our tubular rack with a complete flooring kit. Because the floor is made to be installed in sections, you can always add items (vents and ACs, etc.) to your roof easily, even after the rack is installed. $6499
Lighting: At the front of the rack, we added a light mounting strip to easily add your LP9s, Sentinels, or your preferred lighting setup. The light mounting strips have our signature holes and slots so you can perfectly space your lighting. Lights sold separately.
Customizable: We will have additional mounts and custom accessories for the rack. We aim to make these accessories backward compatible to allow you to add new features without replacing your rack. This would include fairings and
A-Pilar brackets -rack extensions that run down and mount in front of the side-view mirrors. These brackets will be sold as an add-on kit!
No Shipping Cost: - Shipping a tubular roof rack can cost thousands of dollars, not to mention the damage that typically occurs. That's why we use our network of Owl locations, which allows you to pick up or install your roof rack without shipping charges. We use our own trucks to move our racks to all of our Offroad locations, saving you money and allowing us the peace of mind they show up in perfect condition. That's right; you can pick your roof rack up for free from any of our Owl Offroad Locations (see the professional installation tab for details on locations)

Know Before Ordering!
- Requires factory roof rails or equivalent for mounting (must be installed on van or van interior must be removed). Please check your van before ordering.
- Lights sold separately
- Does not fit Sprinter Passenger Vans with Mercedes Factory AC
- Does not work with Thor Tranquility or Santuary (there are no roof rails, and the interior needs to be removed to add them). We do not recommend anyone install a roof rack on rails that have been riveted to the roof.
- Does not work with Airstreams that have in-molded awnings (Interstate)
- Roof Rack is compatible with the Fiamma F45s. The F80s is NOT compatible.
- We cannot remount the Carefree awning. With all the issues with these awnings, we suggest moving to a Fiama 45s
REVEL OWNERS: If you want to upgrade to the Flat Earth Rack, we highly suggest removing your factory roof rack yourself. Removing the factory roof rack is fairly straightforward, but it is time-consuming. You will save a lot of money by bringing your van in with a "naked" roof. You do not need to worry about removing the AC, Maxxair, or awning.
Revel and some other factory Class B vans require a spacer kit for the roof rack. This is free; please select that option when configuring the rack on this page.
