Question:

I have a 2021 F-150 XL 4x4 SuperCrew with the 5.5foot bed. Will the Adarac M Series Rack work with the Truxedo Sentry CT cover? Wanting to make sure both can be installed, but also that the cover can be rolled up and still fit underneath the support bracket closest to the cab. Im not sure how tall the Sentry CT is when rolled up all the way.

I have a great ladder rack and tonneau solution for you. However, Adarac does not make an M-Series ladder rack that is compatible with a 5-1/2 foot bed on a 2021 Ford F-150.

With that being said, a great alternative is the Adarac Pro Series Custom Truck Bed Ladder Rack # A86RR (matte black) or # A4000964 (silver). While this rack sits higher than the M-Series on your vehicle, the Pro Series comes with the same fully adjustable bases that you can position anywhere along the bed. Also, since the square crossbars measure 1-1/2 inches tall x 1-1/2 inches wide, they are compatible with many clamp-on accessories. Another great aspect of the Pro Series is that it installs completely into your stake pockets which allow it to be compatible with the TruXedo Sentry CT Tonneau Cover # TX1597716. With the Pro Series, you definitely have enough room with the rolled-up cover.

For great add-one with the Pro Series, I recommend the tie-down eye bolt kit # A4000882 and the fully adjustable load stops # A4000880. If you need straps to secure your cargo, you can't go wrong with the Erickson Cam Buckle Tie-Downs # EM34409.
