Tall Ladder Rack For 2003 GMC Sonoma
Question:
what is the tallest truck rack you have? I have an 03 gmc sonoma and looking for a truck rack that will go well over the stock factory racks on the cab. The idea is to put a roof basket on the factory rack and have a separate lumber rack in the bed but Ill need as much clearance as possible so the load on the lumber racks doesnt hit the stock racks

The rack I'm recommending is the Thule #TH500XTB Truck Bed Ladder Rack. It has 32 different adjustable heights to give you lots of hauling versatility, and it will safely carry 450 lbs of lumber. This ability should be customizable enough to keep your load from coming into contact with the stock racks over your cab. In terms of maximum height, from the top of the bed rail, this rack measures 30" to the top of the crossbar, and 34-3/4" to the top of the load stop.
Bear in mind, the niche application you describe is very unique and still might require some subjective modification and/or fabrication to reach the goal of what you're trying to accomplish. Nevertheless, the Thule TH500XTB is a great product that will increase your hauling versatility and serve you well, and it includes a limited lifetime warranty.
