Thule TracRac SR Sliding Truck Bed Ladder Rack Review TH43003XT-510EX

Today we're gonna be checkin' out Thule TracRac SR Sliding Truck Bed Ladder Rack with Cantilever.With this system you get way more than your traditional ladder rack. You get an abundance of features and you get more loading space. The included cantilever extends over the roof of your truck, expanding the amount of storage space available.The cantilever extends 32" from your front rail. You'll get a whopping 1,250 pounds carrying capacity distributed evenly across your rack. If you're using your cantilever up there, it does reduce it down to 1,000 pounds but that's still plenty of space and carrying capacity for anything you throw up there.We've currently got ladders up on our rack, but with it's massive carrying capacity, you could put lumber, steel, PVC pipes, and just about anything and secure it tightly with the load stops found on each corner.Now with the ladders removed, I'll show you it's coolest feature. The tops will slide individually from one another, allowing you to collapse it down and get the maximum use out of your truck bed when you need that vertical space or you could adjust it for shorter ladders and loads, while still maintaining half of your truck bed for taller objects.This is unlike other ladder racks that are set in a fixed position which require you to remove them completely if you need full truck bed access. more
