There will not be any need for pictures. If you have factory rails on top of your A.R.E. camper shell, I can find a roof rack to fit. Yakima makes the factory rails for your camper shell. The compatible roof rack will consist of the following items:

Yakima CoreBar Crossbars - Steel - Black - 60" Long - Qty 2, part # Y00422
SkyLine Towers for Yakima Crossbars - Fixed Mounting Points, Flush Rails, and Track Systems - Qty 4, part # Y53TR
Landing Pad 1 for Yakima SkyLine and Control Towers - Qty 2, part # Y00221, (two pair)
Yakima Same Key System (SKS) Lock Cores (QTY 4), part # Y07204

This roof rack will have a maximum weight limit based on the weight capacity of your truck's cap and the rack itself. You will be limited to the lower of these weights. The crossbars will have a maximum weight capacity of 220 lbs. I included the lock cores so you can secure this roof rack to your vehicle.

I have included product description links, video installation links, and video review links below.
