Not functional without purchasing correct bolts and lubricant

This review focuses on Force USA's quality control and not on Gym and Fitness.

As others have mentioned, this attachment feels like it was made by a different manufacturer compared to the high quality of the MyRack base unit.

The bolt for attaching the lower pulley is too short to use with the two washers as instructed, and I had to use a smaller steel karabiner as the one provided was two thick to fit in between the welded bushes. Likely more and issue with the welding tolerance conducted and not the wrong karabiner.

The weight plate holder sleeve barely fits, requiring excessive force to slide it onto the frame.
The 160mm bolts were too small with all the washers and plates etc that they ask you too fit. I had to go purchase larger 180mm bolts for it to fit.

After all this and getting it all together, my biggest grip that almost makes it unusable is the fact the weight holder does not freely slide up and down the shaft. Makes weights feel much heavier during positive rep and pretty much nullifies the negative rep on the release of your rep. I haven't tried lube as others have mentioned yet but that's ridiculous that I have to now go buy some form of lubricant to make it function.

Good but could be better...

The add on is a great concept for the force usa my rack. It's function would complete many home gyms.

However I found from my experience in assembly and use it could be improved.
1. The instructions could be clearer. I came across some incorrect information.
2. The weight attachment could barely fit through the metal pulldown frame. I had to take off the top inner sleeve then reattach after. However this was damaged trying to put it back on the weight attachment while in the sleeve.
3. I had to jack the base unit to aline the bottom holes with the metal pulldown frame.
4. There is no access to tighten the upper nut on the upper frame of the base rack.
5. Two long bolts were 10mm short with part of the assembly. I cut down bolts to 170mm which fitted perfectly.
6. The bolt used to secure the lower chain was a tight fit and needed a hammer to push through the hole - in saying this the chain was too short and I had to use a spare caribiner from around the house.
7. The weight attachment gets stuck and needs lube to glide. I am curious how frequent I will need to reapply to keep the friction (weight) consistent when tracking workouts.

The quality doesn't meet my expectations but is still functional. With all the build faults, I think as long as the weight attachment glides with minimal resistance then it is good enough for me. My suggestion is using plastic sleeves that have minimal contact with the lat pulldown steel frame to minimize the friction. Trying now to figure out what mods I'll need to make so it's more suitable for my training needs.

Good Attachment

The Lat attachment fits great with the FORCE USA My Rack. Quality is good and works just fine. The hand attachments and cables all feel nice to use. When constructing, one bolt will need to be swapped with another because one is to short. You'll need a set of Alan keys and make sure to grease it up before using. Otherwise very happy with the product.

Hi C.W.,

Thank you for your review here! We're glad to hear that it fits well with your MyRack and that the quality is up to your standards. We appreciate your feedback about the bolts and will make sure to look into that for future improvements. Thank you for choosing Gym and Fitness and we hope to hear from you again :)

Happy training!

Not up to par

Contrary to the base myrack (solid unit), the lat pulldown was a disappointment.

Some of the hardware couldn’t be securely screwed in (no hex nuts on some), the Olympic sleeves do NOT fit as intended as they are too short (I had to remove it’s head to slide them onto the holder. Finally, the weight carriage is very stiff and I had to lube it and yet STILL it doesn’t slide smoothly at all so you might have to sand it down or something.

If you want the base myrack I can’t fault it but that lat pulldown attachment I honestly cannot reccomend.
