Adarac Aluminum Series Custom Truck Bed Ladder Rack Installation - 2023 Toyota Tacoma- Video
Hi, everyone, Aidan here with etrailer. And today we're gonna be taking a look at and showing you how to install the ADARAC Aluminum Series custom truck bed ladder rack on the back of our 2023 Toyota Tacoma. Now when it comes to ladder racks, there's probably two routes that you're maybe going with this. You're either using this on the work side of things where you're carrying lumber, ladders, conduit, longer items that maybe don't fit very well in the truck bed so it's easier to put it up above the bed, where it can extend over the cab a bit. Or maybe it's more on the sports and rec side, where you plan on carrying kayaks, which, again, maybe don't fit in the bed super well. Or you'll mount something like a rooftop tent up here, where you can camp out of it and take it on some adventures while still having all of your storage in the bed underneath. more

Hey guys, it's Jake here with etrailer. Today we've got my 2013 Ram 2500 and we're gonna be taking a look at, and I'm gonna show you how to install the Front Runner Slimline II Bed Rack. Front Runner makes a lot of racks that will mount to the top of your vehicle that you can see up here on top of my truck. A lot of people don't like to permanently mount their racks to the roof because they just use it during the summer or for a few trips a year. That's when this bed rack's gonna come in handy is you can mount the rails to the side rails of your truck and then if you take the bolts out you can slide this rack off and it's as if it was never there. The benefit of having this type of rack over top of your bed is so that if you ever run out of space when you're going on a long extended camping trip or if you like to go overlanding, you can load your bed up with stuff pretty quickly. more

Kuat Ibex Adjustable Overland Truck Bed Rack Review - 2016 GMC Sierra 2500- Video
Hi, everyone. Aiden here with etrailer. Today we're gonna be taking a look at the Kuat IBEX Truck Bed Rack and seeing how it fits on our 2016 GMC Sierra 2500. So the IBEX is going to be somewhat adjustable giving you in the initial setup process when you get it out of the box, two height settings, the low profile which we have it in here, or the regular height which would be pretty much level with the roof of your vehicle. Personally on this truck, I don't love the low profile look. If you're going to be mounting up something like a tent it is a little bit more helpful to have it closer to the ground, but you are gonna be doing things like sacrificing that back window quite a bit and it just makes it harder to access your truck bed underneath. more
