To add a tonneau cover to your 2022 Chevy Silverado Trail Boss with a 6-1/2' bed you will want to use the RetraxPRO XR Hard Tonneau Cover item # RTX78FR. The RetraxPRO is made of 1" Thick, durable aluminum that has a matte black finish which is scratch resistant. This tonneau cover has built in rails on the side to mount a Ladder rack in.

Some other options for Retrax Tonneau Covers compatible with Thule and Yakima ladder racks are listed below:
RetraxONE XR Hard Tonneau Cover Retractable - item # RTX57YR
PowertraxONE XR Hard Tonneau Cover Powered - item # RTX83YR
PowertraxPRO XR Hard Tonneau Cover Retractable - item # RTX33FR

For a ladder rack you will want the Yakima OverHaul HD Adjustable Truck Bed Ladder Rack item # Y01151-5855 or the Yakima OutPost HD Overland Truck Bed Rack item # Y01152-5855. Both ladder racks have 68" crossbars and are compatible with the Retrax tonneau covers.

To me it makes the most sense to put a Bike Rack #HLY64FR on the flat towed vehicle rather than above the tow bars. Especially on heavy e-bikes as they are difficult to lift that high onto the rack, but also as it only makes sense to have the rack on…

Hey Chad, so I'd actually recommend a mid size ladder rack like the Yakima OutPost HD Overland Truck Bed Rack #Y01152-58. This is by far going to be your best bet if you don't want to trailer your kayaks. These bars have a 500 lb weight…

As long as the flat tow wiring is wired in before the 4-Way #C93ZV and you connect the power for the converter directly to the battery it will work. I have seen several use Magnetic Lights #TL21RK which they will wire in on the main harness to have…

A cover being installed on your spare tire would not prevent the Swagman Bike Rack part #S80501 from installing. The rack would still fit and work well. You might still compare the dimensions in the picture I attached with you spare tire so that you…
