Question:

Is there a bike rack available to accommodate the siderails and Rambox? The distance between the side utility rails is 50-1/2

Expert Reply:

The Thule Insta-Gater Pro bike rack, you mentioned, part # TH93VR would be compatible with your truck bed. The rack needs a footprint of about 20 inches, so if you had 50-1/2 inches of tailgate available, you could use two racks side by side.

The Thule GateMate Pro, part # TH824PRO would also be a good, inexpensive option.

The Ramboxes would prevent you from using any bike rack meant to attach to the side rails, like part # S64701as there would be no place to attach the rack.
