Question:
I have a 2018 GMC Sierra Denali 2500 HD with a retrax one XR I just purchased. I am having a hard time finding which load bars for the retraxone XR to fit the width of my truck without over hang. I have the RTX-T-60462 tonneau from retrax xr. Could you please give me model numbers and brands Thule,Yakima,rhino and sizes please. I do not know what length to go with. I will be using it mainly to carry two bikes upright,a rack of some sort and maybe a hard case for fishing poles. Thank you.

For a full sized truck like your 2018 GMC Sierra 2500 short bed that has the RetraxOne XR tonneau part # RTT-80462 the Rhino Rack load bar setup part number # RRVA180B-RRRLT600 would be a great fit and matches what you are looking for. I attached a picture of this rack installed on a truck bed like yours and we found that didn't overhang past the bed rails. These bars are 71 inches long as well. If you'd prefer something a little shorter the Overhaul HD part # Y01151-58 with the adapter # Y01155 fits as well and gives you 68 inch long bars that are a little taller.
For a Thule setup you'd need the fit kit part # THKIT3101, the foot pack part # TH460R, and then 69 inch square bars part # TH713600. This will be lower like the Rhino Rack.
For the price and quality you get I'd recommend the Rhino Rack setup.
