Question:
Erickson Truck Bed Rack and Bak Flip G2 Tonneau cover 2018 Ram 3500 Mega 6.5foot bed, no rambox. With the rail that required for the Tonneau cover in place and the tonneau cover flipped all the way forward and up against the cab, can I install the Erickson Truck Bed Rack EM007705 for temporary use? If this combination doesnt work, any recommendations?
asked by: Dave
Expert Reply:
The Erickson Truck Bed Ladder Rack # EM07705 cannot install if the BAKFlip G2 Tonneau cover # BAK26203 is installed on your 2018 Ram 3500 short bed. The Tonneau cover rail will be in the way and the rack cannot be mounted properly.
If you do not already have a Tonneau cover then I recommend using the Revolver X2 # BAK39213 and the TracRac SR sliding ladder rack # TH43003XT-501. This combination has proven to work together and is the best option to have a ladder rack and Tonneau cover at the same time.
