Flatline Van Co. Sprinter 170″ Standard Roof Rack with Light Bar Fairing
The Flatline Van Co. Sprinter 170″ Standard Roof Rack with Light Bar Fairing is a rugged, all-aluminum roof rack built specifically for 2007 and newer Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 1500, 2500, 3500, and 3500XD vans with a 170″ wheelbase and high roof. Designed with a wider footprint and 6.5″ tall side rails, this rack gives you significantly more usable rooftop real estate than low-profile options – ideal for solar panels, roof top tents, MaxTrax, and decking. The Light Bar Fairing version features a precision-notched front wind fairing engineered to accept most 50″ LED light bars, including the Baja Designs ONX6 50″ Arc LED Light Bar, giving your build an aggressive, expedition-ready look.
Nine fully adjustable 10-series anodized aluminum crossbars let you position gear exactly where you need it, while L-track compatible mounting points on the side rails make securing surfboards, kayaks, and cargo straps a breeze. The aerodynamic aluminum wind fairing keeps fuel efficiency in check even with a full load on top. Fiamma F45S awning compatibility is built right in, and installation is a straightforward bolt-on process designed to work with stock or aftermarket roof rails – most installs wrap up in just a few hours.
Key Features
- Light Bar Fairing: Notched front fairing designed to accept most 50″ LED light bars – compatible with the Baja Designs ONX6 50″ Arc. Light bar not included.

FAQ
No, the light bar is not included. This variant includes a front fairing with a notched 50″ cutout that is designed to accept most 50″ LED light bars. Flatline Van Co. recommends the Baja Designs ONX6 50″ Arc LED Light Bar, which is shown in the product renderings, but it must be purchased separately.
The Normal Fairing is a solid aluminum wind deflector that improves aerodynamics and fuel efficiency. The Light Bar Fairing features the same aerodynamic design but includes a precision notch cut into the front to accept most 50″ LED light bars. If you are not planning to run a light bar, the Normal Fairing is the cleaner option. If you want off-road lighting, the Light Bar Fairing is the way to go – you cannot easily add the cutout after the fact.
This rack is specifically designed for 2007 and newer Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 1500, 2500, 3500, and 3500XD vans with a 170″ wheelbase and a high roof configuration. It is not compatible with 144″ wheelbase vans or extended (EXT) roof vans. If you are unsure of your wheelbase or roof height, check your VIN or the sticker inside your driver’s door jamb.
Yes, the Standard Rack is compatible with many roof top tents thanks to its wider footprint and 9 adjustable crossbars. However, RTT compatibility depends on the specific tent’s mounting dimensions and weight. Always verify the tent’s footprint and weight rating against the rack’s specs before purchasing.

Yes. The Standard Rack is directly compatible with the Fiamma F45S 350 and Fiamma F45S 400 awnings, which bolt onto the side rails. The design ensures full coverage between the rack and awning with no weather gap. Other wall-mount awnings may also be compatible depending on their mounting style.
