Thanks for reaching out, Zhen!

The Yakima 54" Tracks for Roof Racks # Y26RR has smaller tracks designed for use with a roof rack mounting system, while the Yakima 54" HD Tracks for Roof Racks, OverHaul HD, and OutPost HD # Y64MR are a bit more robust and can handle roof racks along with the OverHaul HD and OutPost HD truck bed ladder racks.

If you aren't sure how you'll use this yet then I recommend going with the HD option since it gives you more opportunities to use it. Let me know what you plan on using the tracks for and I'd be more than happy to let you know what else you'll need!

@Zhen In that case I recommend the following: - 54" HD Tracks # Y64MR - Landing Pad 26 # Y75ZR (you'll need 2 of these) - SkyLine Towers # Y53TR - JetStream Crossbars 60" # Y00426 OR 70" # Y00427 depending on truck bed rail width Each crossbar will have a 110 lb weight rating but that's the dynamic (in transit) rating. These will be rated high enough for your 600 lb capacity roof top tent when you are set up for camping.
