My guess is that it will fit okay, but you might need the larger Roughhouse rack.

I have a Shad 33 case which I think is larger than the one you bought. It needed the larger rack. I suggest you give it a try with the rack you have. The larger rack is not really too much bigger anyway.

i ordered the larger rack, im just concerned with the cushion on the back side of the top case. it appears that it would interfere with the raised bar on the rack.

I can measure mine tonight and let you know how tall the raised bar is, if that helps.

The raised bar is about 2 3/4" taller than the surface of the rack. The rack surface extends about 7" behind the raised bar, so that is how much length you would have to mount the case.

Thanks for the measurements. I'll post an update once I get both parts in.

Received my top case a few days ago for my RH50. Attached below is the mounting hardware provided with the case, there is no mounting plate for a quick connect/disconnect. My question is, do I have to drill into the prima rack in order to mount this case? If not, how do I mount it?

No instructions included?

Don't drill. The long bars go under the rack, usually flat side up. Bolts go down through from the inside of the case with the very large washers inside the case between the bolt heads and the case. Small washers and nuts go on from the bottom, and clamp the long bars, the rack, and the case together.

The long bars can be positioned as needed to line up with the rack and the bolts. The bars probably work best if they go lengthwise front to back on the rack and not across the rack.
