Short answer
Rogue lists the Monster Slinger only for Monster Rack 2.0 models such as the RM-3, RM-4, RM-6, Monster Cave and the Fortis versions, and the rack must be secured to the floor. It bolts on with two 1 in Monster bolt assemblies through holes 8 in on center and pulls at 1:1. Rogue does not list an overall weight capacity or a warranty term on the page.
