Bolts you mentioned for cleats and racks were backwards. Long for the racks short for the cleats. Also bak now makes a t slot rail for there cover so no need for the elevate rail so tonneau can be more flush

@phillipsingletary5454 Год назад

How would this work with a dealer installed tonneau rollback bed cover without the grooves to install the rack?

@Utubeisazzho Год назад

Does this rack work with the ARE fusion hard tri fold cover? Thanks!

@a-ron9884 11 месяцев назад

It is already above the cab on the LOWEST setting. And WHY would anyone want to set it super high. This thing was made backwards. People want it to go DOWN, below the cab, and extend up above the cab for use with cargo.

Can you attach side cross bars?

Can you put a rooftop tent on this system? If you can which rtts are compatible with it?

@norzoloco1 7 месяцев назад

I'd like to get these racks but with a gator SRX roll-up tonneau cover. Is the installation process the same? Does the gasket need to be replaced with the smaller one? Thanks

@69jeffb69 6 месяцев назад

hi there, can you buy the t bolts seperatly? or is there an aftermarket product that would work with the rails?

@mannycali334 Год назад

I have a 2018 tundra cremax short bed to I buy the compact rails or full size?

@hcornier28 Месяц назад

Do you have a security system to avoid removing nuts? Anybody can remove nuts with drill and racks be stolen.

What if my existing bed cover used 4 clamps, totaling 8 clamps. Do I just use the newer Elevate TS rail clamps instead, 3 on each side?

@user-jv3ux6fm6i 19 дней назад

Thinking about getting this on my Tacoma as I currently have the x15 installed. But one question before pulling the trigger. Would it be possible to load Thule XT XL on this?

@Islasian4life 3 месяца назад

Just finished installing one of these, glad they decided to add a middle height, so now 18/23/28. For my Silverado, 23" is the perfect height, just clears the top of the cab and I can fold my Bakflip all the way to the back window. Only issue I had, was I used the thin seal on my Bakflip, which made re-installing it a little too tight, had to remove the seal(didn't have it in the first place). Also, another thing to note, since you're setting your Tonneau cover on top of the TS rails, like in my case, the tailgate seal on the Bakflip is not flush anymore, leaves about a 3/16" gap.. :( need to find a way to seal that part..

@jonbrown7760 2 дня назад

Yeah, I have that issue also. Used to have a watertight seal, not anymore.

@michaelmancini5773 11 месяцев назад

It looks quality built, but WHY do you have to remove and reinstall bolts when adjusting height of racks, that step should be redesigned and changed to one step tensioning , gets really old for a tradesman/ weekender and multi use, dealbreaker for me

@daniell6317 14 часов назад

Does it work with a Bak Flip cover?

@jonathona2289 Год назад

Are there load stops that can be used with this rack? Similar to yakima/thule where you are able to slide them into the bar and then adjust.

@Realtruck Год назад

Unfortunately, we can't say for sure right now.

@Joah132 Год назад

So this clamps underneath the tonneau cover? I'm trying to find a system I like that works with Peragon. Thank you!

@Realtruck Год назад

Unfortunately, we have not tested the Elevate Rack System with any Peragon covers at this time.

@markobrien2264 10 месяцев назад

Very nice video. I am looking for this exact set up and you may have sold me on it. Which tonneau cover matches this set up? Is it lockable?

@connorjosh Год назад

Seems like some people have made the rail system work with the MX4 cover on a Ridgeline, but your website says that it is not compatible. Do you know what modifications need to be made for it to work?

@rem45acp Год назад

I'm looking to install the rail system with a truxedo lo-pro cover. Another video a salesperson mentioned he cut the rail to fit. Choose the 63" rails and trim them on the band saw. As there's no drilling into the truck, they just have to be shortened. This is what I'll do. You'll probably have to do the same It is really sad that so many manufacturers of truck accessories just completely ignore the Ridgeline. The second generation has been around for 5 years now and there's still such little support for it. In their tiny heads they must just not think it's a good vehicle even though it really is.

Is there a way to make the rack system theft proof? It looks like a thief could remove the system in a few minutes with the right tools. Thanks.

@Realtruck Год назад

Hey Keith, the rail it mounts to is proprietary and the rack is worthless without something to mount it to.

@sammyandalexander Год назад

Would this work well for a couple 8+ surfboards or a 2 person kayak?

@Realtruck Год назад

Great question! As long as you have enough distance between the front and rear load bars to properly support what's riding on top, you'll be fine. Take the Maverick in the video as an example. This truck has the shortest bed that the Elevate Rack is made for, and the front and rear load bars can be placed to span about 3 1/2 feet. if you place a surf board that's 8 feet long on top, so that about 11/2 feet hangs off the back, then only about 3 feet of board will hang over the cab. With the tandem kayak, I'd recommend using a Kayak carrier on the rack for the best support, but the Elevate would haul it well.

@mikec8123 Год назад

Is it okay to drill more holes so that I can have another height option?

@Realtruck Год назад

Hey Mike! Yes, that can be done but keep in mind that doing so will void any warranty.

Gary that's the Truxedo Pro X15. You can find it here, realtruck.com/p/truxedo-pro-x15-tonneau-cover/.

Can you install a molle panel on this rack system?

@skullsroad3642 7 месяцев назад

You can't. This is more of a kayak or ladder rack. Not really an overlanding rack.

@fernandoviray8600 7 месяцев назад

If I only knew. The shop that installed my rack system didn’t mention to me about that.. 😢

@skyconroofingrestorationll782 Год назад

Would a 28ft ladder fit on this?

@Realtruck Год назад

If you're installing the Elevate Rack on a Maverick, the load bars will be about 3 1/2 feet apart at max spacing. If you have an extension ladder on top of it, we'd recommend using a cab mounted load bar from a roof rack, like Rhino Rack, Thule, Or Yakima. The cab mounted load bar would work as a cantilever support for the ladder.

@norzoloco1 7 месяцев назад

How will I know if the elevate racks match the height of the roof rack though? Specifically on a Ford Maverick. Thanks

Would this work on an F150 with the Gator FX3 tonneau cover? Also are these suitable for a Roof Top Tent?

@lukehodson9625 Год назад

Would this work for hauling a 32’ ladder?

@Realtruck Год назад

We'd recommend hauling an extension ladder with a rack that extends over the cab. A 32 foot ladder collapses to about 16'3" and the Elevate rack only supports above the bed. That leaves a lot to hang over the cab without support. Hope that helps!

@lukehodson9625 Год назад

@@Realtruck what about a 28’ ladder that collapse to 14’?

@daveaffolter9697 Год назад

a 32' fits on the truck decent. I recommend a bed rack and one bar on the cab to support a 32'. Even with a cantilever your support is all on the 2 crossbars and that is a lot of torque to put on the rack. I am not sure how this rack will line up with a cab bar. the ladder would probably rest on the rear bed bar and the cab bar and hover over the mid bar. My buddy has this setup with a different rack and it just barely hovers over the middle bar. He is getting 35 mpg with the 32 on there. I am still waiting for my truck, but plan on an adjustable height bed rack with one bar on the cab.
