Looking for a rack system that will work with bakflip mk4. 2023 ram 2500 64 bed. My last truck had a system one contractor rack, so ideally Id like one with over the cab cantilever.

Expert Reply:

The BAKFlip MX4 Hard Tonneau Cover # BAK48203 on your 2023 Ram 2500 short bed will work best with the Adarac Pro Rack System # A24JG, but unfortunately this doesn't have an over-the-cab piece.

If you really need that over-the-cab part then you'll have to get a different tonneau cover, and for that application I recommend the following combination:

- BAK Revolver X4s Hard Tonneau Cover # BAK64ZR
- Thule TracRac SR Sliding Truck Bed Ladder Rack w/ Cantilever # TH43003XT-501EX

I presume that this customer didn't have a RAMBOX. THis is a problem that has no solution. 6' 4" RAMBOX that needs a cover and a set of racks...

@RayR So you have a Rambox truck and you have a ladder rack currently but also want a tonneau?

@JamesonC I don't have anything presently. I'd like a bed cover that includes a T-slot mounting rack. 2019 RAM 2500 Crew Cab Limited 4x4 with a cargo management system and a 6'4" RAMBOX. Thanks,

@RayR We have one combination that can work with the Fas-Top Tonneau part # FT63YV and then for a ladder rack # FT26MJ. The Ram Boxes definitely make it a lot more interesting to find a fit that covers both!
