Thanks for reaching out, Kyle!
The Thule Xsporter Pro Ladder Rack # TH500XT isn't compatible with the BAKFlip due to how they both mount, but we do have some alternative options that will work. I'm not sure where you saw the photos but it could be that it was a different ladder rack used with the BAKFlip.
For example, the Adarac Pro Series # A4000952 has a mounting rail system that's compatible with the BAKFlip cover on your customer's 2019 Ford F-250.
If they are wanting a Thule brand then the only option that works with the BAKFlip is the TracRac SR # TH43003XT-785. The only thing to keep in mind with this option is that the base rails for the SR sit in a little and the edges of the BAKFlip typically brush against it so over time the seal could wear out from this.
Attached are some videos for you to check out!

Hey Kyle, did your customer end up going with the Adarac Pro Series or the Thule TracRac SR for their F-250 and BAKFlip cover? Knowing which setup worked best could really help others trying to pair a ladder rack with a tri-fold cover.
