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!!!!
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: Hugh 02/16/2023
Strong racks that can actually hold stuff. Look good too.
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
- Recommended Crossbars for Yakima Top Tracks On an A.R.E Camper Shell CX SeriesThe Thule TracRac CapRac Ladder Rack for Camper Shell/Truck Cap # TH29200XT is not actually meant to be installed into top tracks. This crossbar system is actually meant to be installed in fixed points on your camper shell so it's not going to work with your Yakima tracks. Yakima does offer a complete system - # Y47CV which includes everything, but since you already have the tracks you'd just need the crossbars # Y00427, the landing pad # Y00221, and the towers # Y53TR. These bars and...
view full answer... - Roof Rack and Load Stop Recommendations for ARE or LEER Cap with Factory TracksThe TracRac brand was bought out by Thule a number of years ago and some of their products underwent some changes under the transition - the CapRac Ladder Rack TA29200 being one of them. Thule made some upgrades and released it as the part # TH29200XT you're seeing now with our current product images and review videos. We definitely have some roof rack options that will fit OEM tracks on an ARE or LEER topper but the CapRac is designed as a stationary rack so it won't fit into a track...
view full answer... - Will Thule TracRac CapRac Fit on Tracks of Leer CanopyYes, the Thule TracRac CapRac part # TH29200XT would fit the tracks on your Leer canopy. That's basically what this rack was designed to for.
view full answer... - Roof Rack that Can Fit Tracks of 2021 NuCamp T@G XL BoondockThe roof rack/ladder rack setup you are going to need for your 2021 NuCamp T@G XL Boondock is the Thule TracRac CapRac part # TH29200XT as it has 69 inch crossbars. Since your tracks are 65 inches apart there isn't a Rhino Rack setup that would have a long enough crossbar setup.

- Roof Rack Recommendation for my Are Truck Camper or CapI really like the Rhino-Rack Aero Bar Roof Rack for Camper Shells part # Y02-500B for 65" or part # Y02-480B for the 54". These will give you the crossbars you need to attach your Hullivator to as well as any other roof ounted accessory should you need it. This unlike the other will allow you to adjust the bars closer or further apart to allow for different goodies. The Thule TracRac CapRac Ladder Rack for Camper Shell/Truck Cap part # TH29200XT is not a bad choice it's bars are just too...
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.

- Will the Thule Cantilever work for the Older TracRac SystemsThe add on Cantilever Extension for Thule TracRac SR, G2, and T-Rac Pro2 Ladder Racks part # TH24002XT or the Cantilever Extension for Thule TracRac TracONE Ladder Racks part # TH24001XT will work with the older TracRac. You just have to determine what model you have. Look for a model or serial number on the rack itself. If you have trouble identifying it please let me know what info you can find and I'll be happy to do what I can to help out.
view full answer... - Can TracRac CapRac Ladder Rack # TH29200XT be Removed for Clearance and Leave Swivel BracketsYes, all other components for the TracRac CapRac Ladder Rack, # TH29200XT, can be removed while leaving the swivel brackets in place. I have included a snapshot of the installation guide to show how the rack corner attaches to the swivel bracket. All you will need is a wrench to remove the rack corners and your truck can make it's way to the garage for the winter.

- Ladder Rack Recommendation for 2018 Ford F-150 with Camper Shell We have just what you need! The Thule TracRac CapRac part # TH29200XT is confirmed as a fit for a camper shell on a 2018 Ford F-150 and would work great. It also fits all bed lengths too based on how it installs. This rack has heavy-duty aero shaped crossbars and includes load stops. The capacity of the rack will basically be whatever the capacity of the camper shell is.

- Replacement Legs and Hardware for Older Thule CapRac 29200For the mounting feet for the older style CapRac 29200 (not the newer CapRac part # TH29200XT) you need the replacement feet part # TH8527646001. If you only have the crossbars then you likely need the hardware as well. The hardware can be found with Bag 1 # THHD80935A and Bag 2 # THHD80936 which I confirmed with my contact at Thule is all you'd need to have the complete CapRac setup.
view full answer... - 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 Recommendation for a Camper Shell on a 2013 Toyota Tundra for Kayak CarrierI think your best option would be to get a TracRac CapRac Ladder Rack for Camper Shell/Truck Cap # TH29200XT for a roof rack system that will install on your camper shell so that you could mount a couple Thule Hull-A-Port Pro Folding J-Style Rooftop Kayak Carriers # TH834 as long as your camper shell has the weight capacity for the weight of your kayaks.

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 thing about this though is that the larger platform rack requires 3 crossbars to be safely used so you will need to add another crossbar to your A.R.E. HD CX Series Bed Cap. We have the Thule TracRac CapRac # TH29200XT...
view full answer... - Recommended Distance Between Feet for Thule TracRac CapRac Ladder Rack for Camper Shell/Truck CapAccording to the instructions for the Thule TracRac CapRac Ladder Rack for Camper Shell/Truck Cap # TH29200XT you'll want the feet to be about 27-1/2" apart from each other both front to back and side to side. Thule says "about" that measurement so if it's a little more or less you'll be okay.

For your camper shell, I recommend the TracRac CapRac # TH29200XT for your 2015 Ram 2500. This rack will hold up to the maximum capacity of your camper shell. This rack weight approximately 26 pounds. I have attached an installation video of this rack on a GMC Sierra for you to have an idea...

- Recommended Aluminum Ladder Rack for Camper ShellOne of our most universal camper shell ladder racks is the TracRac CapRac Ladder Rack # TA29200XT. It can fit on a wide variety of camper shells, has a crossbar length of 65 inches, is made of aluminum, and has a carrying weight capacity that is limited by the weight capacity of your camper shell (or cap). Unfortunately Yakima is not in the ladder rack business as of yet.

This type of system will be the only way to add crossbars to your working setup without...
view full answer... - Roof Rack Recommended for 1998 Chevy S-10 with Leer Camper ShellFor a roof rack that will fit your 1998 Chevy S-10 pickup with the Leer camper shell with no rain gutters, I recommend the Thule TracRac CapRac Ladder Rack # TH29200XT. The CapRac is made out of a lightweight and rust-proof aluminum construction and permanently mounts to your truck's camper shell to allow you to easily carry extra cargo or gear on top. This rack can hold up to 500 lbs, but keep in mind that the capacity may be reduced if the weight capacity of your camper shell is lower.
view full answer... - Roof Rack that Can Fit Top Channels of Leer CamperFor a roof rack that would fit the channels you have on top of your Leer camper shell the Thule TracRac CapRac part # TH29200XT would be a really great option. This is a higher weight capacity rack that fits directly to the channels with top channels and load stops. The bars are 69 inches long overall.
view full answer... - Was There a Change Between Newer and Older Model TracRac CapRac Ladder RackThule basically purchased TracRac and changed the part numbers but not the actual bars themselves. So if you have the older TA29200 the # TH29200XT is the exact same. Just the feet of this is not available as a replacement part.

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...

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.
