Roof Rack Recommendation for Factory Tracks on ARE Camper Shell

Updated 03/09/2022 | Published 03/08/2022

Question:

I am interested on adding a roof rack to my truck. It has a ARE shell with factory rails. I am looking for the cross bars and tower system. Can you please recommend some products that would fit? Thanks

I really like the Rhino-Rack Vortex Aero crossbars for the factory truck tracks like what you have on your ARE camper shell because they can easily be removed if you ever want to take them off. There are locks for this system as well so even though it's easy to remove, you have to get past the lock first.

There are a few different sizes for this setup but you will likely need the 54" Crossbar System # Y02-480B-NT or 59" Crossbar System # Y02-490B-NT. You'll want to measure the distance between your tracks and choose the crossbar length that best matches what you find.
