Specs:
The T-Rac Pro2 mounts quickly and easily to your truck bed rails. Simply position the bases of the rack where indicated in the included instructions and secure them with the provided clamps. Each support base is held in place by 2 heavy-duty aluminum clamps. Torque the clamps down to ensure a substantial connection and you're good to go.
Included with the TracRac system is the cantilever extension, which attaches to the front crossbar to provide 32" of additional length over the cab of your vehicle. With this extension piece mounted, you can carry long loads safely and easily. The crossbar of the cantilever extension is constructed in the same fashion as the other TracRac crossbars, so that you get the same sturdy, aerodynamic styling throughout.
Included with the T-Rac Pro2 is a toolbox mounting kit that lets you mount your crossover-style toolbox without having to drill into your truck bed rails. Within this kit are 4 aluminum clamps that attach to your truck's side rails in much the same way as the mounting clamps. Each clamp has a pre-drilled hole in its center and comes with the hardware required to attach your crossover toolbox.
The sturdy aluminum crossbars on all TracRac truck racks feature integrated slots for mounting and easily adjusting accessories, such as the included load stops. These slots appear on both the top and bottom of the bars for the ultimate in mounting versatility.
A built-in trip strip at the front of each crossbar shields the slots from wind, maintaining the aerodynamic quality of the bars and preventing that annoying whistle you often find with slotted bars.
Included with the T-Rac Pro2 are 8 tie-down accessories. The 4 load stops are designed to mount in the slots of the crossbars and slide along them for quick, easy adjustment. To adjust a load stop, simply twist the quick-release knob, slide the load stop to the desired position, and then tighten the knob to secure the load stop in place. These bookend-style pieces help to hold ladders and lumber in place on the crossbars. They also have built-in loops for securing tie-down straps.
The 4 cleats attach at any of the provided mounting points along the outside of the upright supports so that you can tie down items that require additional anchoring or that sit in your truck bed.
The T-Rac Pro2 rack system is constructed of durable, lightweight aluminum. Because aluminum is lighter than steel - the material most often used for truck racks - only a small percentage of your truck's cargo capacity is taken up by the rack itself, enabling you to pack on more weight than you could with a steel system.
Even though aluminum is already rustproof, TracRac has taken the extra step of adding a dual powder coat finish to further protect the rack. The electrostatic powder coat (e-coat) clings to the metal surface better than traditional paint finishes for a more durable covering. The second coat is a clear finish that adds extra shine and protection from scuffs and scratches.

Speaker 1: Today we're going to be taking a look at T-Rac Pro2 truck bed ladder rack with over the cab extension. This ladder rack kit is going to let you carry some of the longest items right over your cab, that you would normally not be able to haul with your truck. This will get those long items out of your bed and up on top; such as, ladders, lumber or long poles so that way you have room for your tools in the back. Included in your kit, you're going to get the Pro2 ladder rack, and the cantilever over bed cab extension. This ladder rack is going to both mid-size and full-size trucks.The length of your bed rack is going to be determined by your the length of your bed. And the extension in the front is going to add about 32 inches over the top of your cab.
The over the cab extension load bar is going to have the same aerodynamic design and crossbar channel for accessories. The only difference between the over the cab bar is that it's a little bit smaller, being about 3 inches wide and about 1 3/4 inches tall. While your bed load bars measure about 4 inches wide and 1 3/4 inches tall. The over the cab extension can be removed for a more compact ladder rack. We're going to take it off now so you can see what it looks like.It's not only practical for on-the-job use but it's great for when you want to unwind and for all your recreational purposes.
It'll carry your favorite water sports accessories; such as, kayaks, canoes or paddle boards. Allowing for all this extra room in your bed for coolers, and other beach accessories.It features two load stops per bar with loops for tie down hooks. The load stops are also adjustable, that could vary size ladders and loads.There's a channel up top to allow the load stops to slide. Now unlike other designs that have this channel up top that may cause some wind noise, there's a specially designed lip to help the air flow over it, to keep it down. And when compared to square bars, these are going to be quieter.
And when compared to round bars, they're going to have more surface area for your load to sit on. The cross bars are 69 1/2 inches long, which gives you plenty of room for your gear. And depending on the size of your truck bed, you may have some overhang so this way you're not missing out on any of this bars extreme length. To the top of the load bar, it's going to add about 27 1/4 inches to the height from your bed rail.Another unique feature to these cross bars is the channel opening. This will allow you to add additional slotted accessories; such as, tie downs and easily remove your load stops.
Also located underneath is the same channel as up top with the opening. This will allow you to add the same accessories but with an additional adjustment. The uprights are adjustable to fit both mid-size and full-size trucks. They'll slide on the lower channel of your load bars. There's two bolts in the upright that connect to the load bar but for additional support there's a stabilizer link here, which increases the carrying capacity to 1,000 pounds evenly distributed. And that weight capacity is going to be higher than most other universal load bars, which is going to allow you to carry the most load possible.The uprights have tie down points as well, featuring 4 cleats which will allow you to use hooks and other straps to keep your load steady. The whole system is a clamp on design so there's no drilling required. Compared to other designs, this one features a long clamp foot to increase surface area to prevent damage to the underside of your bed rail. The clamp has a unique design which will angle down and slide in this channel to hold it tight on the top and an elongated foot, which will increase surface area as it clamps underneath your bed rails to help prevent damage for a tighter, more stable fit.Another thing that sets this apart from other universal ladder racks, is the rubber sheet protector. This will go between your upright foot and your bed rail, and will help provide extra grip and protect your finish from abrasions. It's constructed aluminum so it's going to be resistant to rust and corrosion. And it's also going to be lightweight, about 25 pounds per assembly. Making it easy to install by yourself.These are also designed to work with crossover tool boxes, so you don't have to worry about them getting in the way. Each clamp has location to mount your tool box so you don't have to worry about drilling into your bed like you would traditionally. And if you have an extra wide toolbox, an additional clamp and small mounting location are available so you have a place to mount it further out.And that completes our look at the T-Rac Pro2 truck bed ladder rack with over the bed cab extension.

Sturdy, rustproof aluminum rack clamps securely onto your truck bed rails and has mounts for a crossover-style toolbox. Slotted crossbars let you easily adjust the included load stops. Over-the-cab extension lets you carry pipes, lumber, and more.Great customer service
Well designed, well built. Pretty straight forward install. A little taller than expected on the Colorado. The cantilever hardware (nuts and bolts) is different than the rack hardware which; though of no consequence structurally, should probably be addressed by Thule to standardize the install.
This bed extender works as advertised. I would highly recommend it to anyone that has an extended cab pickup with a short bed. This is great for hauling longer items around.
My shipment arrived on time , but the box I ordered was damaged. When I informed customer service , they got me a replacement shipped immediately. Great service.
Best Company to work with, when you need to get things done quick for your service company. These Trac Rac systems work great with my Toyota trucks and have stood the test of time with my fleet. Easy to install, use and durable.
