Yakima BedRock HD Truck Bed Rack System

The Yakima Bedrock HD Rack Towers are designed for those who want a lower-profile trunk bed rack system that still features plenty of carrying power. Like the Yakima OverHaul HD, the Bedrock HD Towers pair with Yakima’s Heavy-Duty Aluminum Crossbars , but extends only four inches above the truck bed. This design lowers the center of gravity for heavier loads, makes accessing the load simple, and keeps the trunk bed space open for additional gear or supplies. They boast a 300 lb on-road carrying capacity and can carry up to 180 lbs off-road, making the Bedrock HD another strong, versatile option in Yakima’s new truck rack products. Better yet, tool-free attachment avoids drilling and makes installation painless, and the integrated tie-down points aid in tying down your supplies. For a sleek lower-profile truck rack design that can still manage heavier loads, the Bedrock HD Rack Towers are Yakima’s perfect option. Available mid-February.

Thule’s new line of Evo footpacks makes installing and securing your rack system easier than ever. The Evo Clamp footpack , along with the Evo Clamp Fit Kit , can be installed on roofs without pre-existing rack attachment points.
