What Ladder Rack is Compatible with the Gator FX Tonneau Cover for My 2017 RAM 1500?
Question:
I have an MX4-like Gator FX tonneau cover on my 2017 Dodge Ram 1500 w/64inch bed w/o RamBox. Im trying to find, ideally, a utility rack something like the MaxxHaul # MT70232 or the Thule TracRac SR Could you please help me find something thats compatible? Thanks a million!

I did some research on your Gator FX Tonneau Cover for your 2017 RAM 1500, and the FX allows you to have full access to your truck's stake pockets. With that being said, it will be compatible with a ladder rack that utilizes the stake pockets for mounting (without any attachment to the truck's bed rails).
A great compatible ladder rack for your cover is the Thule TracRac SR Sliding Truck Bed Ladder Rack - 1,250 lbs # TH43003XT-501. The TracRac SR mounts directly into your truck's stake pockets. The height of the ladder rack is 28-5/16 inches tall, so it should give you plenty of height for the clearance of the folding panels on the FX. Unfortunately, since the MaxxHaul Over-the-Cab Ladder Rack MT70232 mounts inside the bed rails of your truck, it will not be compatible with the FX.
