Weight Capacity of the Yakima OutPost HD Overland Truck Bed Ladder Rack
Question:
Hello, I would like to purchase the yakima overland HD rail system to install on my retrax xr cover. My question is based on load ratings. I saw 300lb on road, and 180 off road. Is the 300lb for while moving on like a freeway? My concern is a 180lb roof top tent with two adults stationary would be more than 300 pounds. Is there a stationary load rating?

Yes, there is and you will be good! I checked with Yakima and the Yakima OutPost HD Overland Truck Bed Ladder Rack item # Y01152-5755 has a weight capacity of 500 lbs on-road, 300 lbs off-road, and 800 lbs static or stationary. However, when you add the Tonneau Cover adapter, that this kit includes, it reduces the capacity to 300 lbs on-road and 180 lbs off-road but that is when the vehicle is moving. The stationary weight capacity will also be reduced by 40% so it will be 480 lbs.
Please note the maximum weight ratings will be reduced by 40% when using crossbar spreads less than 36".
