Heigh ho, it's off to work you'll go with this elevated truck bed rack. Get 500 lbs of raised cargo-hauling capacity to go with your truck bed storage. Use the rack for work and haul ladders, lumber, pipe, and rebar. Or take a break from the mines and use your Adarac for play, strapping on kayaks, canoes, skis, snowboards, or hunting equipment.
Adarac is compatible with Access tonneaus and other inside-the-rail truck bed covers, so it gives you added hauling capability without sacrificing your covered truck bed storage.
The Adarac truck bed rack is tailored specifically for your vehicle. The streamlined, tapered rack sits neatly behind your cab, and the top rails extend above your roof to allow you a clear rear view. The black powder coat finish helps to protect the rails and uprights, and the rustproof aluminum crossbars won't chip or fade. This rack will look great even after years of use.
2 Slotted utility rails run lengthwise along your truck bed rails, giving you lots of tie-down options for securing a load inside your truck bed. Safely lash down your elevated cargo using the overhead crossbars with integrated mounting channels. The built-in channels are located on the underside of each crossbar and allow you to secure your accessories. Tie-down slots at the top of each vertical upright bar provide additional tie-down points.
This truck bed rack is fully adjustable along the length of your truck's cargo area. You can adjust the uprights according to the size of the load: unbolt the upright bars to spread them apart for long loads or to move them closer together for shorter cargo.
The Adarac easily bolts on to the top of your vehicle's bed rails using stake pocket inserts - no drilling or welding is necessary. And you can remove the rack whenever you need to. So even if you don't want to whistle while you work, the Adarac custom truck bed rack makes transporting your equipment quicker and easier.

2014 Ram 3500
Chose this rack because it is compatible with the Access Lorado Tonneau Cover. The rack is very well made and simple to install and remove, which I do often due to fifth wheel towing. I use this rack often for ladders and canoes, as well as long length construction materials. Etrailer is lightning fast with shipping, customer service is great and their prices, including free shipping, cannot be beat. Very satisfied with Etrailer and the Adarac!
by: Chris B08/06/2017
Well packaged by shipper and no damage occurred to the racks during shipping. Easy to install and solid product. I had to slightly modify to fit my roll back by grinding about a 1/4" off the box side of the rails. If not for the need to use a grinder on these install would've taken about 15 minutes. No big deal either way. Looks good and these racks will do what I need them to..... Haul Ladders. Next I will be installing the rack em racks on my enclosed trailer.
by: Rick W.07/16/2018
Super easy to install, very sturdy! I found that it worked great for my canoe! I especially love the adjustability of the rack, and all the tie down holes in the base rack for bungies. I wrapped some pipe wrap up top, and used some C-clamps to customize... or you can pay big time for the yuppie version. This is better than the 1 x 2 / 4 x 4" lumber redneck version, and a lot cheaper than the brand name rig. I highly recommend!
by: Thomas m06/17/2018
I installed the rack this morning with no issues. Simple process that took about an hour only because I am picky about everything being square, even and perfectly placed. I was surprised that the unit was as heavy duty as it is. I was expecting something much lighter in gauge of steel. It sits very sturdily on the truck with zero movement. Even my wife thinks it looks rather stylish (neither of us wanted the work rack look).
Thanks for the great service and follow up after the sale to let me know it had shipped, you received notification of delivery, and how I liked the product and install. I've learned through experiences that this is the kind of service one can expect from etrailer.com.

This rack works awesome for hauling our two kayaks while towing our camper. Very easy to put on and take off. Highly recommended.
by: Larry L03/21/2020
I bought the Adarac Aluminum Crossbar Series Ladder Rack a year ago to use for hauling kayaks and it has worked well. It is sturdy, was easy to install, and looks decent on my truck. The paint has held up well. I was able to haul my kayaks from Pennsylvania to Florida and back with no problem. People have stopped me in parking lots asking about the ladder rack. I got a quality product at a reasonable price. The only negative thing I'll say is the ladder rack whistles sometimes. This happens when you get a strong crosswind but the noise is tolerable.
by: Ronald06/16/2021
This Ladder Rack mounted easily on my 2017 1500 Silverado and allowed full use of my roll up metal bed cover. It looks stylish and easily handles my 16 foot canoe. Installation was easy and the rack is easily removed when not needed and the side rails make great tie points for securing cargo in the bed.
by: James 06/23/2022
very good rack. I have a rolling tonneau cover on my truckbed and had to modify the rails that partially covered the stake holes. Once done, it fit it well and now I can have secure materials in the bed and oversize on the rack. Strong and stable.
by: Ken J02/05/2017
Best ladder rack I have ever purchased, hands down. Better than the TracRac, and only half the price. Quality is by far better than any other. Easy set up and take down. Wish I would have bought this one years ago!!
by: John01/29/2018
We have had our Adarac for a year now.
A great product and very versatile from carrying overhead equipment to tie downs for ATV's.
by: Heather03/09/2019
Used it heavily the last year. Held up my rooftop tent during my entire month long roadtrip. Easily held over a thousand pounds of weight. Comes off quick if you need to use the whole bed of your truck.
by: Gene 01/26/2022
Great service. Excellent product.
by: Joseph R.10/16/2018
Awesome product. Very sturdy. Will work with Backflip G2 cover installed
by: Chris07/03/2018
Very well built and easy to install. Looks much nicer the the tubular rack on my old truck. I love that I can use this with my tonneau cover.
by: John S04/27/2019
easy to install, looks good. carries my kayaks just fine. a cushion for the cross rails would be a nice option. I used pool noodles wrapped with iron pipe wrap
by: Jack P.08/18/2017
Excelent , Perfect for 2 kayaks, several ladders and lumber. Also evry easy to take down when I need them off.
by: Ken 01/07/2022
Great product, sturdy and installed in about an hour. Would definitely purchase again.

- Ladder Rack for 2018 Ram 2500 Compatible with Truxedo Lo Pro Tonneau CoverI have a solution for you, but the Thule TracRac SR # TH43002XT-782 is not a good fit with the Truxedo Lo Pro # TX546901 because of how far it sits over the bed rails on your truck; this is a really common problem we run into when trying to find compatible tonneaus and ladder racks. The only tonneau that we know will 100% work unobstructed with the Thule TracRac SR is the BAKFlip # BAK39213, since it sits further inside the bed rails than most other tonneau covers. With that said, if...

view full answer... - Ladder Rack and Tonneau Cover Recommendation for 2017 Chevy Silverado 1500 6.5 Ft BedI have a great solution that will give you both a ladder rack and a tonneau cover for your 2017 Chevy Silverado 1500 6-1/2 foot bed but there isn't anything that's going to fit with your Bak Flip MX4. Instead check out the Pace Edwards JackRabbit Hard Tonneau Cover w Explorer Rails and Utility Rack # JEC95A17-UR3005 which gives you a heavy duty style ladder rack and a tonneau cover that fits between it to cover the truck bed.
view full answer... - Ladder Rack Recommendation for 2015 Ram 2500 6 foot Bed with Extang Encore TonneauFor your 2015 Ram 2500 with a 6 foot bed that has the Extang Encore EX62430 installed the Adarac Ladder Rack part # A70480 would fit since it installs on top of the bed rails and the Extang installs between them and does not go over the top of the rails. The TracRac SR # TH43003XT-000 also installs through the top of the stake pockets so it would work too. This rack has uprights that can slide forward and back which is a nice feature.
view full answer... - Truck Bed Ladder Rack Recommendation for a 2011 Ram 2500 with Roll Up TonneauI think your best option would be an Access Ladder rack part # A70480. As long as your roll up tonneau cover installs inside of the bed rails this rack would work great for your 2011 Ram 2500 if it is a 6 foot bed. If you have an 8 foot bed you would want the part # A70566. The part # THKIT3113 that you referenced is not designed for use on bed rails so I would not recommend you attempt to install that product on your truck bed.
view full answer... - Best Ladder Rack for Use with the BAKFlip G2 on a 2018 Ram 1500 with 6-1/2 Foot BedYou are correct, the Adarac Custom Truck Bed Ladder Rack part # A70480 would not work with the BAKFlip G2 Hard Tonneau Cover part # BAK26203 you have on your 2018 Ram 1500 with the 6-1/2' bed due to the angle of the uprights. Instead, you will want to use a ladder rack that has straight uprights which will not interfere with the panels on your tonneau cover like the Adarac Pro Series Custom Truck Bed Ladder Rack part # A4000944. I have attached a review video of the Adarac Pro Series on...

- Which Ladder Rack Fits 2017 Ram 1500 Short Bed with BAK Tonneau CoverThe sharper angle of the uprights of the Adarac Custom Truck Bed Ladder Rack # A70480 make it difficult for any inside-the-bedrail tonneau cover to install. You'd have to use the Bak Revolver part # BAK39213 which is narrow enough to fit between ladder rack uprights like the # A70480 on your 2017 Ram 1500.
view full answer... - Are Both Alignment Plates Needed for Adarac Ladder Rack Installation on 2019 Ram 1500 ClassicYou'll either want to trim that 3/4 lip or trim up the alignment plates from the Adarac Custom Truck Bed Ladder Rack # A70480 a little to properly install this on your 2019 Ram 1500 Classic with the 6-1/2' bed. Adarac actually calls out trimming the alignment plates on an as-needed basis so this can safely be done. You will need to use both for the installation. Attached is an installation video for you to check out.

- Recommended Ladder Rack for a 2019 Ram 1500 (DT) 6-1/2 Bed with BAKFlip MX4 Hard Tonneau CoverThe ladder rack you will want to use with the BAKFlip MX4 Hard Tonneau Cover part # BAK448223 on your 2019 Ram 1500 is the Adarac Pro Series Custom Truck Bed Ladder Rack part # A4000944, not the Adarac Custom Truck Bed Ladder Rack part # A70480. The reason for this is because the angled uprights on the Custom option will hit the panels on the MX4 whereas the straight uprights on the Pro Series will not. They will both mount alongside the MX4 so you don't have to remove it.

- Compatibility of Ladder Rack with Gator SR1 Tonneau CoverBecause your Gator SR1 tonneau cover mounts on top of the bed rails, there is not a ladder rack that is directly compatible. Based on you looking at the # A70480, I assume you have a 2010- present Ram with 6-1/2 foot bed. The closest option if you can get to your stake pockets is the Adarac Pro Series Custom Truck Bed Ladder Rack - Aluminum - 500 lbs # A4000956. This rack uses the stake pockets for mounting and will be the widest mount with straight upright bars to give you the best...

This one comes with black everything besides the crossbars. That is the most black you can get with this ladder rack.
view full answer... - Would the Access Ladder Rack part # A70480 Fit with Tonneau CoverThe Access Ladder Rack part # A70480 will work with any tonneau cover that installs between the bed rails since it only attaches to the top of the bedrails and does not wrap around the inside of the rails at all. We don't carry Gator Trax tonneaus, but from the pictures I looked up online they all install between the bed rails so this rack should work well.

It has two different tracks for maximum adjustability over your tonneau cover. The other option is the Adarac Custom Truck Bed Ladder Rack...

At this time, there are no ladder racks for the 2012 Dodge Ram with Rambox. But, what you can do is use a dual-purpose ball mount, # D210, tow the trailer with the ball mount end and use the top receiver part for a T-Load, # RTL002.

- Will the Adarack Ladder Rack part # A70480 Fit a 2015 Ram 1500 with Roll Up TonneauThe Adarack Ladder Rack part # A70480 would work well on your 2015 Ram 1500 6 foot bed with a roll up tonneau cover that installs between the bed rails. This cover was designed to allow a tonneau like yours to install between it so it would be a great option. The front uprights would be spaced far enough apart that the cover would have no problem rolling up and fitting either.

The Access Adarac Ladder Rack you mentioned, part # A70480 is a fit for the 6 foot bed model, and will not work with your 5-1/2 foot bed. To see the install instructions, click on the provided link.

Since the Pro MX leaves most of the top of the bed side free, you can use a ladder rack that mounts to the top of the bed side rails. For a sliding ladder rack that would allow you to adjust the spacing between the uprights and a 1250 lb capacity, I'd recommend the Thule TracRac SR ladder rack, part # TH43003XT-501.
