Recommended Truck Bed Ladder Rack For 2018 Ram 2500 That Is Compatible With Inside-Rail Bed Cover  

Question:

I have a 2018 Ram 2500 with 6.5ft bed with a Line-X LXP hard folding cover. Will this rack work with my cover? Second, what J-style kayak mounts would fit? Thank you

As long as your Line-X bed cover mounts inside the bed rails, then you can use a ladder rack that mounts on top of the bed rails. The Adarac Aluminum Series Custom Truck Bed Ladder Rack # A76FR that your mentioned is confirmed to fit your 2018 Ram 2500 with 6-1/2' bed and mounts on top of the bed rails, so it is compatible with inside-the-rail bed covers.

This ladder rack has crossbars measuring 66" long and the crossbars have an integrated top track for track-mounted accessories. I recommend adding Tie-Downs # A4000882 or Load Stops # A4000880 to help secure any cargo on your crossbars. The weight capacity is 500lbs for this system.

I recommend looking into the Malone J-Pro2 Kayak Carrier with Tie-Downs - J-Style - Fixed Arms - Side Loading # MPG117MD to carry your kayak. This will clamp onto the ladder rack's crossbars; for a simple installation/removal process you can add T-Slot Kit # MPG8287 which allows the kayak carrier to slide into the crossbar's top track. I attached a couple demonstration videos for you to check out.
