Camper Shell Mounting
The corner brackets included with your CapRac ladder rack are designed to securely attach to the roof of your truck's camper shell. Position the rack on the cap and mark the area beneath the mounting brackets - this is where you will drill into your camper shell. Once the brackets are bolted into place, tighten the fasteners on the crossbars to secure the entire rack. Because the brackets are designed to pivot, the tightening process should be painless and everything should fit together quickly and easily.
Thule TracRac Slotted Crossbars
The sturdy aluminum crossbars on all Thule TracRac ladder 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. Like the pieces that mount in the base rails, these accessories also have quick-release knobs that let you loosen and tighten them with a mere twist of a knob so that they can be positioned as needed along the bars.
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 Tie-Downs
Included with your CapRac are four tie-down accessories. These load stops are designed to mount in the slots of the crossbars and slide along them for quick, easy adjustment. The 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.
Sturdy, Rustproof Construction
The CapVan rack system, as well most Thule TracRac accessories, is constructed of durable, lightweight aluminum. Because aluminum is lighter than steel - the material most often used for ladder racks - only a small percentage of your camper shell's 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 in itself, Thule TracRac has taken the extra step of adding a dual powder coat finish to further protect your 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.

I actually put this on my 1986 Volvo wagon/best work truck ever! And it is awesome. A little custom, but I called previously to ask the sales guys if it would work and they answered all my questions and were super helpful! People get the biggest kick out of seeing this rack get put to good use with heavy loads of wood on my Volvo! Super fun and I would recommend highly!!
by: Priscilla 07/05/2023
I only had two of the small screws vibrated out of the holder bit order a rew extra in case that didn't happen again. Was most def user error lol. I love it. It hold two 1w foot Sun dolphin kayaks, all my ladders for work and is amazing. So happy I purchased it. I would definitely recommend and buy again.
by: Matty D03/09/2022
The racks were easy to install. A second set of hands on the install is recommended. I also added the ratchet strap tie downs which have also worked out great. After a year of use the racks are still looking and functioning as they did on the first day. I have used them to haul lumber, ladders, staging planks and an occasional kayak.
I highly recommend these racks.

So I received this order and it is not compatible to the rail mounts that my ARE topper have. These rails were recommended from ARE when I had the cap made. They said a Thule rack would install with ease with these rails. This rack seemed to be right and your site showed it compatible with my make and model. However it was very difficult getting any specific information and most everyone I talked with or chatted with said they understood my cap as I described it. However i don’t think anyone really did. I have ordered some T bolts that I think might make it possible but I’ll have to modify those as well for all the racks features to work properly. I feel for the price of this rack it should have compatible hardware for different types of roofs. I know this is Thule and not your company but figured you should know. I spoke with Thule and they tried selling me different parts that were outrageous money and when I looked them up they wouldn’t be right either. Not sure why this is so difficult but now I’ve spent more money and several hours modifying things for the right fit. Overall not real happy with this purchase but hopefully it works out.

This is an excellent quality product if you need to carry heavy ladders, etc. I have to point out that 69" is clownishly long to put on top of a Toyota Tacoma or other smaller truck, but I'm happy to report that you can cleanly cut the size down with a chop saw fitted with an aluminum cutting blade. The end caps come unattached and I was able to cut off one end of each rail cleanly to where the end caps fit nicely. You can't tell that they were cut shorter with the caps installed.

First of all, I love the rack. It is very good looking and very easy to install. I looked for months to find a rack suitable for mounting my RIVERSMITH 2 BANGER fly rod holder.
I am so pleased. thank you guys so much!!!!

Strong racks that can actually hold stuff. Look good too.
by: Peter B07/29/2019
I really like this rack. It was easy to install and has held up well so far. My only complaint, and the reason for only 3 stars, is that some of the components arrived with some slight dents and scratches, pretty clearly NOT from damage during shipping. Not enough to warrant sending the whole rack back, but enough to be annoying, considering I paid full price.
by: Ty C.08/30/2021
Great product, very solid and heavy duty, looks great and above all functions great for hauling anything from ladders, lumber, to paddle boards.

I just installed the CapRak on my cap last night on my 2002 Tundra. It took about 1.5 hours to do by myself. Nice hardware. Everything fits well and the finish quality is very good. I will be using this to transport a couple of 14' long kayaks (using my Thule Hullaports) and a 18' long Sawyer canoe all over Maine and beyond with this set up. They will be very stable up there.
Sometimes I also have to bring some 16' boards to my woodshop and todays truck beds are just not suitable for that kind of haul.
I also bought the 6 foot "cargobuckle" straps to secure the loads, and they look very well made also.
I am going to buy another CapRak from my popup tent trailer soon. good product and well worth the money.

What etrailer does is make it as easy as possible to do it yourself. Between the written instructions and the videos on how to install you are covered. Remember that you do have to have tools and it is not always as easy as it shows on the video. There recommendations are spot on and their individual responses to questions are good. They could improve on several areas. Most people do not have the flexible sewing like tape measure. For putting on roof racks it is essential. Also you will need to lube the bolts for the roof racks or they will seize up while putting on the lock nuts. The packaging for the trailer hitches is sub par. One hitch arrived damaged and the next one also was sticking through the box but mostly undamaged. I imagine it is to keep the shipping costs down. Customer service has also been good. I Ordered a hitch, roof rack and basket and am satisfied.

Great up grade from my old rack. Will be much more secure for tying down ladders. Eyelets on sliding brackets and the brackets themselves are a great feature. Very pleased. Its not a negative but the tubes are a little long for the look I want on my truck. I may try trimming them down. Shipping was 3 days and ordering was a breeze.

See what our Experts say about this Thule Roof Rack
- Inexpensive Roof Rack for a Camper Shell with TracksI do have an option for you but the Yakima Q-Towers cannot be mounted to a set of tracks or directly to the roof. These towers are only designed for bare roofs which they attach to with door clips. For a cost effective roof rack that will work with the tracks on your camper shell you can use the Rhino-Rack Roof Rack for Factory Tracks part # Y02-480B-NT which has 54" long crossbars so your tracks will need to be between at least 42" apart. That said, if you want to remove the tracks and...
view full answer... - Roof Rack and Kayak Carrier Recommendation for 2015 Chevy Silverado 1500 with A.R.E. Camper ShellSince the A.R.E. camper shells have tracks mounted on top of them you can use a Yakima round bar roof rack which will require 4 of the Yakima Control Towers # Y8890027, 2 sets of the Yakima Landing Pad # Y00221, and one set of Yakima Crossbars. For 58 inch bars you can use # Y00409, for 66 in bars use # Y00410, or for 78 inch bars you can use # Y00411. Also keep in mind that the bars can be cut to fit your exact need. The rails on this camper shell are made by Yakima, so this will give...

view full answer... - Ladder Rack/Roof Rack Recommendation for Chevy Silverado with Camper ShellThere's a roof/ladder rack that's made specifically for fitting camper shells like what you have on your 2000 Chevy Silverado. For that you'd want the TracRac CapRac part # TH29200XT which would fit and work well. There's a pretty good chance you could get the Swagman part # S80510 to fit as well but it's not designed or rated for that.
view full answer... - Weight Capacity of Thule TracRac CapRac Ladder Rack Weight CapacityThe weight capacity of the Thule TracRac CapRac Ladder Rack for Camper Shell/Truck Cap # TH29200XT that you referenced is basically whatever the weight capacity of the camper shell is. As long as you stay under the weight capacity of the camper shell this will be strong enough.
view full answer... - Will the Thule TracRac Fit On A Truck Bed CapThe Thule TracRac CapRac Ladder Rack for Camper Shell/Truck Cap part # TH29200XT will attach directly to the truck bed cap via drilling (unavoidable) and provide you with the maximum weight capacity possible which will be determined by the truck bed cap manufacturer. I have attached an install photo for you as well but on a fiberglass truck bed cap.

- Replacement Crossbar Needed for TracRac CapRac Ladder Rack for Camper Shell/Truck Cap # TA29200XTWe do have a single replacement bar for the TracRac CapRac Ladder Rack for Camper Shell/Truck Cap # TH29200XT that you referenced. You can find the replacement bar listed as part # TAFX-12200-02 on our site. This bar does come with a limited lifetime warranty in case of any problems in the future.
view full answer... - Material of the Crossbars with the TracRac CapRac Ladder Rack for Camper Shell/Truck Cap # TA29200XTThe crossbars that come with the TracRac CapRac Ladder Rack for Camper Shell/Truck Cap # TA29200XT that you referenced are made of a lightweight aluminum like more aero style crossbars are. Although aluminum seems like it would reduce the weight capacity this ladder rack has a weight capacity that is dependant upon the weight capacity of your truck cap.
view full answer... - Overall Height of TracRac CapRac part # TA29200From the top of the camper shell on your truck to the top of the TracRac CapRac part # TH29200XT will measure 10-1/4 inches. Since the bars are 1-5/8 tall that means the legs are 8-5/8 inches. There's no reason you couldn't cut the crossbars shorter but you'd void the warranty by doing so.

- Recommended Crossbars for a LEER XR100 Camper Shell On a 2021 Chevrolet Silverado 1500It sounds like you already have Thule tracks on your camper shell and are looking for a set of crossbars that'll work with it. If that's the case, then I recommend checking out the Thule TracRac CapRac Ladder Rack for Camper Shell/Truck Cap # TH29200XT. These crossbars measures 69" long x 3" wide x 1-1/4" tall, has a 500-lbs capacity, and is made in the USA.

If you'd rather have the bars install in a fixed point on the roof and not a track we also have the TracRac CapRac part # TH29200XT which would work great. This has an unlisted weight capacity, but TracRac states that as long as you stay under the capacity of the camper shell this will be fine. These bars are...

This is a durable but lightweight ladder rack that will mount to the Leer canopy shell on your truck. Its aluminum construction will resist rust and corrosion and the slotted crossbars will accept a wide variety of Thule TracRac accessories. The crossbars themselves measure 65 inches long. There is not an over-the-cab ladder rack available that will work with the...

The universal mounting will likely allow you to mount it, however I can't confirm your vehicle will be able to support the weight it is rated to support on a truck cap. There is not a custom roof rack we carry compatible with the mounting points you referenced. Since you do not have a custom fit option for your WRX, my recommendation is to instead use the SeaSucker...
view full answer... - Recommendef Foot Pack, Fit Kit and Crossbars to Mount in Track System on Leer Truck Bed ShellI have a solution for you but the Thule TracRac CapRac Ladder Rack # TH29200XT is designed to be mounted directly onto your Leer shell and not into the channels on a track. Instead, you would want to use the Thule Rapid Podium Feet # TH460R and the Thule Fit Kit for Podium Style Feet # THKIT3101, which will provide you with the base to mount into your tracks. Since these feet do not come with crossbars, you'll want to use the Thule # TH711520 which are 60" long. If you're looking for a...

For your A.R.E camper shell, I recommend instead going with the Thule TracRac CapRac Ladder Rack for Camper Shell/Truck Cap # TH29200XT. These crossbars will mount to your camper shell, has a carrying capacity of 500-lbs, and measures 69" long x 3" wide x 1-1/4" tall.

The only option to add a ladder rack to your truck would be to install a ladder rack on top of your camper shell like the Thule TracRac CapRac Ladder Rack for Camper Shell/Truck Cap # TH29200XT. This will require drilling into the camper shell to mount the brackets and the carrying capacity of the ladder...

- Solution to Carry 2 Kayaks/SUPs on 2015 Toyota Tundra with Truck Bed CapAfter doing a bit of research, I've come with a couple of options for you. To install a roof rack on top of your truck bed cap or camper shell, I recommend the Thule TracRac CapRac # TH29200XT. This will provide the crossbars needed to attach a roof mounted kayak or SUP carrier. This system has a capacity of 500 lbs but your limiting factor will be the capacity of whichever bed cap you end up going with. Your best option for a kayak carrier with load assist is the Malone DownLoader Kayak...

Another option is to add the Swagman Roamer LT # S80510 to the camper shell and then add kayak carriers. The Thule Stacker # TH830 is a great option to carry the kayaks. The Stacker is basically two posts that mount to the crossbars on the shell that the kayaks are secured to. It includes tie-down...

- Recommended Roof Rack for Leer 122 High Rise Truck CapYou were on the right track with the Thule TracRac CapRac Ladder Rack for Camper Shell/Truck Cap # TH29200XT. The Leer 122 High Rise camper shell really isn't ideal for mounting a roof rack, because of the odd shape taking away probably 2 feet of space at the front of the cap, so you'll want to make sure you have 27-1/2" (center of front bar to center of rear bar) and 27-1/2" side to side to install these crossbars. As long as you've got the ability to space the bars and towers at this...

Has not leaked and seems to bear loads well. Takes about 10 minutes to remove from roof when going away and need to park in garage. Only issue is slide nuts freeze up. Wd40 seems to free them up.
