Features to know about

Use Your Rack Without Ditching Your Cover

CrossBed Bunk Kit

You spent good money on that tonneau cover. Why should a rack system force you to toss it? This adapter kit bridges the gap, literally, so you can mount Malones CrossBed rack system without giving up the weather protection underneath. Rack on top, cover below. Clean, smart, done.

Installs Without Putting Holes in Your Truck

Truck beds should carry gear, not permanent regrets. These brackets clamp to the bed rails without drilling, welding, or messing with your tailgate alignment. That means no damage to your truck and no stress if you ever decide to uninstall or upgrade.

Built Strong to Hold CrossBed Loads

Don't let the word "adapter" fool you, these brackets are as solid as the rest of the rack system. They're made to handle the full load of a CrossBed setup, from long fishing yaks to boards, bins, and all the other stuff you haul up top.

Streamlines Your Truck Bed

Without this adapter, you're choosing between dry storage or hauling boats. With it, you get both. Rack your gear up high and keep the bed covered underneath, so you can stash paddles, PFDs, and keep some luggage out of the sun and rain.

Includes Everything for Install

No digging through the garage or hitting the hardware store last-minute. This kit ships with the brackets, bolts, spacers, and clear instructions you need to get it mounted in a single afternoon. Set it up once, then forget it's even there.

Worked exactly what I needed them for, I used them to be able to mount an overland truck bed rack to my truck which has a soft upper canopy on it. they are strong, came nicely packaged with all the hardware you need.



by:

Extensions worked great, extend perfectly just beyond the edge of my hard cover and mount the rack perfectly.

It was just what I needed so I could keep my bed cover



by:

They do a great job extending the attachment point beyond the tonneau cover, but they flex too much under load. It would be nice if they had a support block between the bracket and bed wall top.

  • Will Malone CrossBed Truck Rack Tonneau Adapter Fit 2019 Toyota Tacoma With BAKFlip MX4
    Hey Scott! It looks like the OEM cover on your 2019 Tacoma is a BAKFlip MX4. You can use the Malone CrossBed Truck Rack Tonneau Cover Adapter # MAL88HR with this cover. However, If you're using the rack with any frequency and want to access your truck bed this really isn't the best choice. You won't be able to open or close the tonneau cover without removing the bolts/screws from the rack and taking it completely off. I see you also looked at the TS rails. These are compatible with the...
