Clean lines and a solid feel that compliment your truck while guarding the bed rails and tailgate. Match your bed size and stake pocket layout for a secure, factory-style fit; some trucks may need the pocket openings cleared before install. Sets come ready with rails and hardware for a straightforward DIY job, and the finished look stands out once mounted.
Yes, some are sold as a set with two rails and the needed hardware. Kits can include items like 4 locker castings, 2 SS tubes, rubber expanders, fully threaded bolts, plastic washers, threaded plates, black plastic gaskets, and black plastic tube bushings. Not all kits contain every piece listed, so check the parts list for your bed length.
Yes, certain rails with T-slots can take a Yakima OutPost HD when the correct adapters are used and the tonneau mounts to the inside of the bed sides. If your cover does not block the stake pockets, rails that mount in the stake pockets will work. You will not be able to attach a track mounted to system on that setup.
You can use them for both. Some rails have a 200 pound capacity, so they handle light tie-down duty in addition to looking sharp. Confirm the stated capacity and how the rails mount. Make sure they seat correctly over the stake pockets to help keep loads secure.
Match the bed length and verify stake pocket compatibility before you buy. A 2019 F150 with a 6'7" bed had rails that didn't go over the stake pockets as they were supposed to, while another set fit and installed easily. If your stake pockets are covered with plastic, be ready to file them open per the directions. Fit and install are straightforward once the pockets are open.
Check the number of stake pocket holes and the coverage you need. Some bed rail protective skins have two stake pocket holes, so count yours and compare. A tailgate cap can go down about 1 inch on the inside, so review photos and measurements to make sure the look and protection match your truck.
