Question:
Does this ladder rack require the explorer side rail system for mounting? Can I mount it to my 2022 Ram 2500 without the explorer side rails? I do not want a tonneau cover just be able to install the rack.

Expert Reply:
The Pace Edwards Contractor Rig Rack Truck Bed Ladder Rack # 311-CR3005 does unfortunately require the Explorer rails in order to mount so you would need to use a different style ladder rack if you don't want to have a tonneau cover as well. For a similar contractor-style rack you can go with the Buyers Products Over-The-Cab Truck Bed Ladder Rack # 3371501410 instead.
This rack has a over-the-cab extension as well to haul longer items. It has an 800lb overall capacity and includes load stops on the crossbars to help secure your items in place.
