Collection: Truck Roof And Rack Systems

Start with the vehicle manufacturer's roof-load limits and determine whether the stated capacity applies while driving, while parked or under both conditions. The rack, mounting hardware and roof itself can each have different limits, so the lowest applicable rating should guide the setup. Consider the type of cargo you plan to carry, how often accessories will be removed and whether a low-profile platform or traditional crossbar system is more practical. Added roof weight can affect vehicle handling and clearance. Check compatibility carefully before mounting rooftop tents, fuel containers, recovery equipment or other concentrated loads.
