Clamp-On Installation

TracRac TracONE Clamps

The TracONE mounts quickly and easily to your truck-bed rails. Simply position the bases of the rack where indicated in the included instructions and secure them with the provided clamps. Each support base is held in place by two heavy-duty aluminum clamps. Torque the clamps down to ensure a substantial connection and you're good to go.


TracRac Slotted Crossbars

The sturdy aluminum crossbars on all TracRac truck racks feature integrated slots for mounting and easily adjusting accessories, such as the included loop tie-downs. These slots appear on both the top and bottom of the bars for the ultimate in mounting versatility.


A built-in trip strip at the front of each crossbar shields the slots from wind, maintaining the aerodynamic quality of the bars and preventing that annoying whistle you often find with slotted bars.


Included and Optional Accessories

TracRac TracONE Tie-Downs

Included with your TracONE are four tie-down accessories. These loop tie-downs are designed to mount in the slots of the crossbars and slide along them for quick, easy adjustment.


All TracRac crossbars accept a variety of accessories that slide and adjust for optimal placement. Mount load stops (TA25110) to better hold your ladders and lumber in place. Carry your boat atop the TracONE with either a basic foam-block kit (TA28600). You can also purchase TracRac's plastic tie-down loops (44700) to meet your standard tie-down needs.


Sturdy, Rustproof Construction

The TracONE rack system, as well most TracRac accessories, is constructed of durable, lightweight aluminum. Because aluminum is lighter than steel - the material most often used for truck racks - only a small percentage of your truck's cargo capacity is taken up by the rack itself, enabling you to pack on more weight than you could with a steel system.


Even though aluminum is already rustproof in itself, TracRac has taken the extra step of adding a dual powder coat finish to further protect your rack. The electrostatic powder coat (e-coat) clings to the metal surface better than traditional paint finishes for a more durable covering. The second coat is a clear finish that adds extra shine and protection from scuffs and scratches.

TracRac TracONE Truck Bed Ladder Rack Review

Video Transcript for TracRac TracONE Truck Bed Ladder Rack Review

Today well be reviewing the TracRac TracONE truck bed ladder rack fixed mount weighed in at 800 pounds, part number ta27000-01. This truck bed rack lets you carry ladders, lumber and more with ease. Its aerodynamic design reduces dragging wind noise. The electrical crossbars are streamlined to minimize wind resistance. The air foil trip strips prevent air from whistling through the slots. There is no drilling required for this installation and its quick and easy.

One size fits all almost any truck. The 16,000 series aluminum construction is strong and durable. Its light weight material wont detract from low ready. The slotted crossbars accept a wide variety of TracRac accessories such as additional tie downs, load stops and more. It has a dual staged powered coat finish that adds extra rust protection followed by an e-coat clear coat to improve resistance to scratches.

Its wide based on either side of the upright provides superior stability. Theres no need for any additional bracing for this rack. There are four heavy duty composite loop tie downs that are included. It is made in the USA, weighs 59 pounds and has a carrying capacity of 800 pounds. Now that weve gone over some features and specs of the TracRac rack ladder rack, well go ahead and show you how to install it to the vehicle.

Now with our crossbars, support arms, and plates already assembled well start off by sliding the tie downs through the top of the crossbars. Well tighten them down into position and then install the black plate for the end of the crossbars. Weve used the included Allen bolt to thread up underneath the crossbar to tighten the caps and secure them into position. We will repeat these steps for all four of the tie downs and all four of the plates. Remember that the tie downs need to be assembled before the plates are installed.

Now before we set our TracRac onto the bedrails of the truck well first need to set the rubber protectant paddings onto the bedrails to prevent any damage or scratches. Now were ready to install the ladder rack to the vehicle, well first set the front part of the ladder rack onto the vehicle. You may need to adjust the support arms to the width of your truck bed. Well need to measure from the front part of the truck bed to the first part of the supporting plate to make sure that the supporting arms and plate are parallel. Once this measurement is established we can move up to the top of the ladder rack where well make sure the distance on each side of the top supporting arms is the same. Well then move to the rear of the vehicle were well repeat the same steps making sure that the top of the ladder rack is equal on both sides from the top of the support arm as well as the bottom plates of the support arm are equal to each end of the tailgate. Once weve established these positions, well use a wrench and tighten it down. Now were ready to secure the ladder rack to the vehicle. With our bolts semi threaded through the C-clamps, well bring the C-clamp up on top of the groove of a support plate and then underneath the underside of the bedrail. Well then put the T-plate on the top side of the bolt and use a wrench to tighten it down to secure the support plate to the bedrail of the truck. It is important that you space out the C-clamps as far away from each other as possible, they need to be spread at least 7-5/16 inches apart, any less of a distance will reduce the load capacity of the rack. Well then repeat the steps for the C-clamp and clamp feet for all support plates of the ladder rack. Once all the C-clamps are tightened down to secure the support plates to the vehicle well load up our cargo and secure it with some straps. That completes todays review of the TracRac TracONE truck bed ladder rack weighed in at 800 pounds, part number ta27000-01.

Clamps a bit of a pain, I think bolt heads, rather than allen type bolts would make tighening much easier. But nice rack with good finish and not bad to install. Seems quite sturdy for my surfboards.73197

the tracrac is a great looking product and seems very durrable. It was a bit disappointing that neither the front or back rac can be fastened at the very front or very rear of bed.. Furthermore, it would be a huge asset if the cantilever accessory would fit onto it... overall, I do like this product and will get much use out of it. thank you. pictures are coming soon.62862

  • Ladder Rack Recommendation for a 2005 Dodge Ram 3500 for Use with Rhino Rack Cargo Basket
  • The Steel Mesh Cargo Basket, # RLBL-S280, comes with mounting U-bolts that will fit on crossbars no wider than 3-7/8 inches. The Heavy Duty hardware is designed for the Rhino Rack heavy duty crossbars that are 1-5/8 inches wide and 1-7/8 inches tall so it is unlikely they will fit TracRac bars. According to my contact at TracRac, the bars on # TA27000-01, are 4 inches wide and 1-5/8 inches tall, so neither Rhino Rack hardware fit will fit these bars. A ladder rack system with smaller bars

She stated that this ladder will fit on your truck bed, but you will need the Tacoma Mount Kit, # TA34000. These clamps were specifically designed for the Tacoma truck bed and evenly distribute the weight among the base of the ladder rack so you do not damage your truck bed as long as you stay within the capacity of your truck bed.

  • Will TracRac TracONE Ladder Rack # TA27000-1 fit on 2003 Ford Ranger Styleside
  • I did some research on the TracRac TracONE Truck Bed Ladder Rack # TA27000-1 by going into our warehouse and examining the product. I discovered the product will fit all styles of Ford Rangers going back to the 1999 models including your 2003 Ford Ranger Styleside. Shorter crossbars are not available, but I do not recommend cutting them as that would void the manufacturers warranty. There should be no need for cutting the crossbars as they can be centered and tightened on the upright support

  • Compatibility of TracRac TracONE Ladder Rack System with Bed Mounted Toolbox on 2005 Ford F150
  • According to my TracRac representative, the clamps that hold the front crossbar of the rack to the top of the bed side rail will extend into the interior of the bed by 1-1/4 inches per side, for a total of about 2-1/2 inches. If the width of the portion of your truck box that fits in between (not on top of) your bed rails is no wider than 2-1/2 inches less than the width between the tops of your bed rails, your toolbox should fit just fine. If the fit is tighter, there might be a problem. Tra
