We have exactly what you're looking for! I'll start off with the tonneau cover, since finding a tonneau cover that is compatible with a ladder rack is oftentimes a rather difficult proposition. I recommend using the BAK Revolver X2 tonneau cover # BAK39329 since it mounts inside the bed rails and won't interfere with a ladder rack that mounts on the bed rails. This tonneau is a roll-up cover with aluminum backing, which provides you with the vinyl feel of a soft tonneau that has aluminum backing to provide an added layer of strength and stability.

The best compatible ladder rack for a BAK Revolver tonneau is the Thule TracRac SR # TH43002XT-508, which mounts on top of the bed rails and provides you with a sliding ladder rack with a 1250-lbs capacity. The TracRac SR provides you with the ultimate flexibility by allowing you to slide the uprights on the rack forward and backwards the length of the truck bed so that you can carry a variety of different lengths of items, from kayaks to lumber. One of the best parts about going with the Thule TracRac over a traditional ladder rack is that the TracRac comes with aerodynamic crossbars to help reduce the wind noise that you might encounter with square crossbars.
