Now when it comes to ladder racks, there's probably two routes that you're maybe going with this. You're either using this on the work side of things where you're carrying lumber, ladders, conduit, longer items that maybe don't fit very well in the truck bed so it's easier to put it up above the bed, where it can extend over the cab a bit. Or maybe it's more on the sports and rec side, where you plan on carrying kayaks, which, again, maybe don't fit in the bed super well. Or you'll mount something like a rooftop tent up here, where you can camp out of it and take it on some adventures while still having all of your storage in the bed underneath. more

Front Runner makes a lot of racks that will mount to the top of your vehicle that you can see up here on top of my truck. A lot of people don't like to permanently mount their racks to the roof because they just use it during the summer or for a few trips a year. That's when this bed rack's gonna come in handy is you can mount the rails to the side rails of your truck and then if you take the bolts out you can slide this rack off and it's as if it was never there. The benefit of having this type of rack over top of your bed is so that if you ever run out of space when you're going on a long extended camping trip or if you like to go overlanding, you can load your bed up with stuff pretty quickly. more

Let's grab some measurements to see what we're adding to the back of our vehicle. So from the bottom of the bed to the bar, we're right at 50 inches. more
