Question:
I have a 2015 Silverado with a standard bed. It has an Undercover hard tonneau cover, which I occasionally remove. Are there ladder/kayak racks that I could install WITHOUT removing the tonneau cover brackets?

Expert Reply:
If your Undercover Hard Tonneau Cover sits inside of the bed rails you would be able to add the Thule TracRac SR Sliding Truck Bed Ladder Rack # TH43002XT-781 which sits on top of your bed rails and allows the ladder racks to slide around on the base rails for more a customizable fit for a 2015 Silverado with a standard 6 1/2' bed. You will need # TH43002XT-782 if you have a 2015 Silverado 1500 with a 5 1/2' bed. To be able to fold the cover you will need to slide the legs of the ladder rack as far forward as possible since the uprights on the ladder rack slant inward and may interfere with the cover.
We have not tested the Thule SR # TH43002XT-781 with an Undercover Hard Tonneau Cover but we have received customer feedback confirming it worked with a hard folding cover that sits inside of the bed rails like the BAKFlip MX4 Hard Tonneau Cover # BAK48121.
I included a video for the Thule SR Sliding Truck Bed Ladder Rack # TH43002XT-781 for you to take a look at.
