Do you have a recommendation for a ladder rack to fit my Ridgeline with Truck Hero MX4 cover?

We don't have any traditional ladder racks that would fit the bed of your 2018 Honda Ridgeline but a roof rack solution would be a way to carry ladders. Is that something you'd consider? Are there any rails on the roof of your vehicle currently? Or is it totally naked?

I do have the roof racks on the cab but since the cab is short they would not work well for a long ladder. I really be just need a rack for the back end of the bed to stabilize the load. Any ideas? I thought of that this PM. I do have a dealer installed hitch so that would probably work. What have you got?

We have the Thule Goalpost part # TH997 which fits 2 inch hitches like what you have at the rear of your 2018 Ridgeline. Another option that comes with a crossbar is the Darby Extend a Truck part # DTA944-968-924 which basically gives you a rear crossbar for the hitch and a single crossbar that would sit on top of the cab of the truck.
