This rack is built for real work and adventure. It’s rated for 500 lbs on-road and 300 lbs off-road, so it handles everything from ladders and lumber to kayaks and rooftop tents. The aluminum construction with a black powder coat keeps it strong and rustproof, whether you’re on the highway or driving down a gravel trail.
The adjustable uprights let you set the rack height anywhere from 19" to 30" above the tracks, so it fits your gear perfectly. Keep it low for easy loading or raise it up for tall cargo. Etched measurements on the uprights and crossbars make it simple to center and match both sides evenly.
With built-in T-slots in the uprights and crossbars, you can mount gear exactly where you need it. Attach clamps, eye bolts, paddle holders, or lights directly into the channels. The crossbars work with most Yakima channel-mount and clamp-on accessories, so you can set up for work one day and a weekend trip the next.
The 54" tracks mount securely to camper shells, truck bed rails, or gear trailers—drilling required. Once installed, the rack locks down tight with BedGrip clamps on most common bed rails. The QuickChange system lets you remove or reinstall the uprights in minutes when you need full access to your bed.
Every part of the rack is designed for convenience and strength. Rubberized strips in the crossbar channels cut down on wind noise and drag, built-in tie-down points make it easy to secure gear, and endcaps finish off the tracks with a clean look. The Same Key System (SKS) lock cores secure your setup, and yes—there’s even a signature bottle opener built right in for when the job or adventure’s done.

Thanks for sharing your experience! It sounds like you’ve got some awesome adventures ahead once the weather warms up. We’d love to hear how the rack holds up once you get everything loaded. I am also curious, what kind of bikes are you hauling?

This product has been working fantastically! It has done everything I expected and hoped it would do and looks great as well. Very user friendly and the family has enjoyed the river trips and bike trips alike. Being able to put 4 pricey mountain bikes on a rack and feel completely at ease that they are solidly attached is a great feeling. And I stand by my original post regarding your customer service and integrity of honoring the earlier advertised price. Thank you.

I continue to be very happy with the racks. They show no signs of wear despite heavy use. Ive used them for transporting both kayaks and lumber without issue. I expect them to outlast the vehicle.

Having had the rack for a year now, I am even more impressed with it. I have started carrying lumber more & more. I carried two 16 4x12s and it felt very secure. Because my bed is only 5 long the racks are pretty close together. Nonetheless- it handled the weight easily. The fact that the uprights slope a bit toward the center of the truck creates a trapezoid that is very stable side to side. In addition, the angled buttresses provide front to back stiffness. It amazes me that other companies build racks with parallel uprights.

One year later and the racks are still working great, no issues. Use them to carry my kayaks use the Thule hullavator and a Yakima cargo box. I have a few pictures if there is a way to attach images to comments.

I totally agree about the t-slots, it makes installing and uninstalling the rack so much easier than some other racks that don't. It also looks great on your tuck, Sean!
