Question:

I have a 2013 Tacoma Access Cab long bed, which I believe is 6.1ft long, with a snugtop camper. Will these 60inch HD tracks work for me? I plan on using these tracks to install a Prinsu top rack or something similar onto my camper shell

I have a solution for you. While the Yakima 60" HD Tracks for Roof Racks # Y74MR will install nicely onto your snugtop camper shell, I cannot confirm for sure whether a Prinsu model can fit directly onto the tracks. This is because different platforms and baskets are compatible with different track channels. We also do not carry any Prinsu models here at etrailer.

However, for a definite solution, I recommend using the Rhino-Rack Pioneer Platform Rack for Camper Shells - Track Mount - 60" Long x 49" Wide # RR47QX. This is an all-in-one complete solution that includes 55" tracks, quick release legs, and the platform itself. The feet of this kit will absolutely fit into the channels of the included tracks. If you plan to carry accessories such as kayak cradles, or roof mounted bike racks, you need the Rhino-Rack Accessory Bars for Pioneer Platform Rack - 48" Long # RR43137B to do so.

If you plan to carry gear on the platform, I recommend using the Eye Bolt Kit for Rhino-Rack Pioneer Platform Rack # RR43178 along with the Cam Buckle Cinch Straps with S-Hooks # RRRTDH3.
