Will the TracRac SR Work with My BAKFlip MX4 on My 2021 Chevy Silverado?
Question:
I have a BAK BAKFlip MX4 on a 2021 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 and want to add a ladder rack. Do I have any options? Will the Thule TracRac SR work with this?

I have a great solution for you. The TracRac SR # TH43002XT-782 (for 5-3/4 ft. bed) and the # TH43002XT-781 (for 6-1/2 ft. bed) will work with your BAKFLip MX4 cover on your 2021 Chevrolet Silverado 1500. However, they do not make a TracRac SR that will fit your vehicle if you have an 8-foot bed. In order to maneuver your folding-style cover with the TracRac SR, you will need to move the base rails of the TracRac in order to accommodate the folding capability. The reason for this is because the uprights of the TracRac slant inward, which may cause some rubbing if the uprights are not out of the way.
For a great solution that does not require any extra maneuvering of the rack when opening your BAKFlip MX4, I recommend the Adarac Pro Series Ladder Rack # A4002965 (5-3/4 ft. bed), # A4003497 (6-1/2 ft. bed), and the # A4003886 (8-foot beds). The uprights of the Pro Series model do not slant inwards and will not require and adjusting in order to fully open the cover. Another beneficial thing about the Pro Series is the great available add-ons such as the tie-down eye bolts # A4000882 and the sliding load stops # A4000880. If you need straps to ensure the safety of your cargo, I recommend the CargoBuckle Cam Buckle Tie-Down Straps w/ S-Hooks # IMF12637.
