Question:

asked by: Elgin D
Expert Reply:
If your 2016 GMC Sierra 3500 is a 6-1/2 foot bed, then I recommend the TracRac SR Sliding Truck Bed Ladder Rack # TH43002XT-781 along with the BAK Revolver X2 Hard Tonneau Cover - Roll Up - Aluminum and Vinyl # BAK39121. This combination will give you a locking hard cover tonneau with an adjustable ladder rack to best suit your needs. The internal bed rails allow enough clearance for the rolling hard cover to have clearance and not make contact with the ladder rack that uses the stake pocket locations for mounting.
If it is an 8 foot bed, then I recommend # TH43002XT-780 with # BAK39122.
For a compatible kayak carrier, I recommend the Thule Hull-A-Port Kayak Carrier w/Tie-Downs - J-Style # TH834 with the adapter for T-slots # THXADAPT11.
Let me know if you have further questions.
