Recommended Adjustable Ladder Rack For 2014 Ram 1500 5-1/2 Ft Bed With In-Bed Tonneau Cover

Question:

Hi there, I have a 2014 Ram 1500 Crew cab with a 5 foot 7inch bed, It also has an access roll up cover that mounts inside the bed rails. Im interested in a sliding rack system one because I think they look better but I also think they make more sense. I didnt really want a rack that would have to stay on all the time because I would really only use it a few times a year,vacations, camping,etc.Is there an adjustable rack like the trac rack, that will work for me? The one that keeps coming up is the adarac #A70450 but it seems to be more permanent than I had hoped.With the hardware that goes into the stack slots I think that would be a pain to remove every time . Any suggestions? Thanks

The Adarac Custom Truck Bed Ladder Rack, part # A70450 may be a great ladder rack system for your 2014 Ram 1500 for a couple of reasons.

First, it is not a permanent installation, and although it does use the stake pockets for installation, it will allow you to still use your inside the bed tonneau cover. Another nice feature is that you can remove the uprights and leave the rails in place. The uprights require 2 bolts for each leg that attach into the slotted holes on the rails when mounted on the truck.

I also recommend ratchet straps like part # SS6-SL14.
