For the correct mounting brackets to mount the Yakima HD Crossbars - Aluminum - Black - 78" Long # Y01159 to your Retrax tonneau cover like the # RTX47SR, you need the following parts:

- HD Bar SL Adapter for Yakima BaseLine, SkyLine, TimberLine, and RidgeLine Towers # Y03541
- SkyLine Towers # Y53TR
- Two sets of the Landing Pad 1 for Yakima SkyLine and Control Towers # Y00221
- Yakima Same Key System (SKS) Lock Cores part # Y07204

These are all the components you need for installing the Yakima HD crossbars on your vehicle. However, it is important to note that, depending on the year/make/model of your truck bed, the 78-inch crossbars could be dangerous if they extend past the length of the mirrors. If you want a shorter option, you can choose to use the Yakima 68" HD Crossbars part # Y01158.

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 tonneau…

You will have to go with a sliding hitch to allow the trailer to make tight turns. For a trailer 8 feet wide the only bed length that's going to allow 90 degree turns without a slider is a stationary hitch. That being said you have two options.…
