MT5819 Truck Bed Rack for Mountain Top Tonneau Covers - Ram

Video Transcript for Mountain Top Tonneau Covers Truck Bed Rack Review

If you have the Mountain Top EVO-M tonneau cover on your pickup truck, and you want some accessory bars, well, these are gonna work with the accessory T-tracks on this tonneau cover to enable your truck to do a lot more. Now, that we have bars on the truck, the whole entire width of the bed, we're gonna have all that bar space to do a lot of stuff with. So for me, in the fall and the summer, spring months, we usually just use these to haul our rods, it's very difficult to get them in the cab but then you can also utilize these bars in accessories for your winter stuff. And if you wanted a little bit more space on top if your whole entire bed is completely full, put a cargo carrier on there, you can get a cargo box. If you have sensitive items or just bring a bunch of bikes. We loaded this thing up completely.

This is a lot of stuff for a lot of different people. So we have it all tightened down and we're gonna go drive around a little bit. It's basically a roof rack just on the bed of your truck. Accessory T slots on your time of cover is amazing because we do cover up our steak pockets. We just need to remove this cap here.

There's a little button on the inside. I tried to do it with my figures and it's just a little too big but I take just an Allen key, just push this little tab in. It should slide the right out and that exposes our, little T slot. So you're gonna have to remove that cap to put anything on or take anything off that you can use different brands. if it is the same size.

I'd say about three ACE tall and the overall width of the track is a little shy of one inch. So if your accessories that you may already have, have key slot adapters for 'em and it fits within that measurement right there, you'll be able to use it for that. These are only gonna be used for bars that go across and then you could put your accessories on those but just know that you could put bars just like a lower profile ladder rack with a tunnel cover which is pretty neat. What you're seeing right now is the mountaintop crossbar kit for this specific tunnel cover, works pretty well. They're gonna have a 165 pound capacity.

The nice thing about this is we can slide them to match whatever type of accessories that we're wanting. We tighten them down. And when they do come with locking caps as well. So if you're using T slotted accessories up here, it's gonna be nice and safe and locked into place. So there's a lot you can really do. I think this is a great setup for a rooftop tent. The sweet thing about T slots on your channel cover is when you're not using the bars, since we have a canister up here, you can just slide them all the way to the end like this. So you can still use your bed exactly how you we're before you put the bars on here. You just need to move both sides relatively evenly and we still have enough room for a couple different bars. If you really wanted to which I think would be pretty cool. You get two sets of these and have four bars for a lot of different types of accessories and you're still gonna be within the canister length so you're not taking up any more room on your bed. Whether you're going for style or functionality just to enable your truck to do a little bit more. I do think that the accessory bars with the mountaintop EVO-M is going to really bring your truck to the next level..
