Thule TracRac SR Base Rails for a 2015 Ford F-150 with 6-1/2' Bed

Question

Question:

I have an existing Trac Rac sliding truck bed ladder rack for a 8.0 foot bed purchased over 10 years ago. I am looking to reuse the racks but would need to purchase the base rails for a 2015 Ford F-150 extended cab w/ a 6-6 inch bed. Which base rails are recommended for this type of application. Also i have all the mounting parts. Rails would only be needed in this situation! Thank you for your help!

The correct Thule TracRac SR Sliding Truck Bed Ladder Rack for your 2015 Ford F-150 with the 6-1/2' bed is part # TH43002XT-501 with just the base rails being part # TH21501.

Even though you say you do have all of the mounting parts, I recommend taking a look at the linked installation instructions to ensure you do have all of the parts needed to install this on your pickup.
