2023 Rivian R1S (Sold 2011 G550)
FS: Gobi Roof Rack, VTS Sliders, OEM G550 Brush Guard

I've decided to go a different route for my off-road adventures. I realized it was too much of a risk to wheel my 2011 G. So Ive decided to sell the off-road accessories I purchased for it.

All local pickup:

One set of VTS rock sliders that are brand new and were never installed $725

SOLD One VTS aluminium transfercase skid plate, new never installed $425

One Gobi Stealth roof rack and rear ladder. The rack and ladder are used. $1600
Gobi specifics: bolton roof rack and ladder. The roof rack covers almost the entire roof area. There is an opening for the sunroof, but I also have the insert to cover the sunroof as well for more storage capacity. The roof rack can accommodate a 40" Rigid E series LED light bar in the front and two 6" Rigid SR series lights in the back. There is a stainless steel tab in the back left of the roof rack for an antenna mount (this was meant for a UHF/VHF antenna). There is another stainless steel tab on the ladder for another antenna (this was meant for a Yaesu ATAS-120 HF antenna). The rack was installed on my G550 for just over a year. You can get the optional bolt-on mounts for a shovel and axe as well as mount for a Hi-lift jack (mine does not come with these mounts). Retail on the roof rack ladder and sunroof insert are $2000+shipping and tax.

There are a couple of scrape marks of the top of the rack due to a low garage entrance (was lower that the yellow bar they have that states the max height of the vehicle by about 6" )

I found that I still have the OEM G550 brush guard. That is now for sale as well. It is used and was taken off a 2011 G550 at about 20k miles. There are a couple rock chips in the paint on the black uprights. One chip is about an inch long. I also have all of the hardware to mount the brush guard (the bolts, nuts and the hinges that mount directly to the bumper) and the OEM tool to unlock it. $1200

I have one Yokohama Geolander H/T G038G (OEM Tire) that is off of the spare from my 2011 G550. The tire is new and was never used. $125

I also have the OEM Mercedes rear seat covers for sale. They have been used but only twice while camping. They still look like new. $60 I will ship at buyers expense.

*add 3% for PayPal transactions.
Please PM me if you have any questions. Thanks.

Sorry.. these times are too heavy and bulky to ship. I don't have the proper packaging for them. I picked them both up directly from the manufacture.

Sorry the sliders have been sold (I wish I could go back and edit my older posts). The only thing I have left it the OEM spare tire.
