For those planning a rack...

[zdjelar]

1. Roof or Bed or both? Bed for me attached to RetraxPro XR tonneau cover t-slot rail
2. Which one are you planning? I’m going with Yakima Skyline towers and Yakima HD bar
3. What size are you planning? I’m undecided between Yakima HD 68 and 78 inch

Here's my setup: Adarac Contour with the Gator HR1 tonneau cover.

Based on some research, if you’re going to do the Yakima HD bars, they have to be the 78 inch on a full size truck.

I have the Retrax Pro XR on order. I am going with the Yakima Overhaul HD and 68" bars.

I scored a retrax but its not the pro. I can get the rails to accept the t slots for $420.

But I saw this and I'm thing of going with the voodoo set up

Thoughts?

Yea you can do that since that rack narrows towards the top. I’m planning to get those towers as well for different applications but I also plan to use them right on top of the Retrax Pro with slim skyline towers and for that you need the 78s. So I’m planning 78s for max flexibility.

Here’s a video that shows you what that width looks like on an F150:

I am planning on both roof and bed. For the roof I purchased the following:

• Thule WingBar EvoEvo load bars 60 in
• Thule Evo Clamp foot pack
• Thule Evo Clamp fit kit 145177
• Thule Compass 4in1 Kayak rack

I haven't ordered the bed cover yet, because I haven't taken delivery of the truck. However, I am planning to go with the RetraxPRO as well. I haven't 100% decided on the kit yet, but planning on mountain bikes and possibly a basket, leaning towards Thule.

I'm still waiting for my truck to be built, but I already ordered the "Thule TracRac TracONE rack". https://www.etrailer.com/Ladder_Racks/Thule/TH27000XTB.html

Mainly using it for my kayak's so that when I'm towing my travel trailer the boats don't get in the way.

I already have a rack on my current truck but it is old and rusty. It also requires mounting with self tapping screws. I don't really want to go drilling into my brand new truck

Those look like thye would interfere with a tonneau cover. I want racks that would allow the tonneau to close & open. I am looking at the LEER HF650M since it is a 4 panel unit, making the panel height when folded up shorter.

They 100 would interfere with a tonneau cover, but I don't plan on ever installing one myself so its not an issue for me.
