Yes, you can position the uprights on the Yakima OutPost HD Mid-Height Truck Bed Ladder Rack Towers part # Y01152 further in so that you have room for your crossover style toolbox. The crossbar spread is pretty much up to you and what you are carrying. Please note the above system does not come with crossbars so you will need to purchase these separately. For this, we have part # Y01157 for mid-size trucks or part # Y01159 for full-size trucks.

If you have a Nissan or Toyota with the track system you will also need the Toyota/Nissan Utility Track Adapter Kit part # Y01168.

Because the Retrax PRO MX Tonneau Cover #RT80467 for the 2019 Chevy Silverado 2500 covers the bed rails, you would not be able to use a ladder rack like the Thule TracRac #TH27000XT since that rack requires the use of the bed rails. The only…

The ideal height will actually have to do with how tall the coupler of the trailer is from the ground. The Draw-Tite #76020 will sit at 13 1/2 inches from the ground to the top of the hitch when installed on a 2016 Mazda CX-9. From what I could find…

Yakima's Skyline towers part #Y53TR can fit the tracks of the Retrax XR that you have with the landing pad 1 part #Y00221 but there isn't a way with the Baseline towers. Your Yakima Corebar or Jetstream bars will work with the Skyline towers…
