    I just installed a new rack from Overland Ruff Rax and couldn't be happier with the quality, appearance and functionality of it. Housing an Ikamper skycamp 2.0. The rack has some built in side lights that are helpful while unloading.
    The truck is sitting on stock suspension with coach builder kit.

    I googled them last night. The racks look awesome, but are expensive. And that's not even asking into consideration the conversion and shipping to Canada.

    I'm finding rack options and availability are very low north of the border... :(

    Most of them seem to be in Alberta/BC, there's also a shortage on material up here, was suppose get some sliders made locally but they can't find DOM tubes, oh well.....

    I spent countless hours and days reviewing different videos and people's feedback on different racks. At the end of the day I wanted to do it right the first time and when I saw his rack on a trail boss I immediately fell in love with the design, durability and craftsmanship. And added plus was that the racks are made in the US and you can literally bolt 25% of the bolts and the rack is not going to move or slide like some of the other ones I've seen. Just an option in case you're looking right now and he has them available. I'm pretty sure shipping can be figured out if it's part of a pallet. Feel free to ask any questions.

    Same company that built my rack is currently designing and building sliders for tundras. They were able to locate material.

    To be honest I'm a total noob when it comes to locations and off-roading. I'm a gear head but I came from building race cars and fun street cars. Learning all the areas from my longtime friend with the gladiator. We got to the end of that trail and this is where we camped and it was actually my first time camping with the family. I did see a lot of shell casings on the ground and we did hear some shooting.

    Yea me and Ragnakov are in Canada, so shipping large items like racks/sliders from US to Canada is a pain and expensive, we have to pay 13% duty plus freight charges since they are large and bulky, specially after greyhounds no longer operates in Canada.

    What happened with Greyhound? My wife's family used it during it pre pandemic to ship large items to the family across the border.

    They ceased operation in Canada few months back, which was a bummer as I had wheels shipped via Greyhounds from US before, it was the cheapest option as I just had to pick it up at nearest station.

    Can you post full side view? Also details on how the rack is attached to the bed?

    Nice. How far back does the tent stick out back? That’s what I wanted to see.

    Your truck makes that Rubicon look like a trash dumpster.

    Looks very nice!

    I'm surprised to see the rack doesn't seem to interfere with your bed cover?

    I have a family of 5 here and am puzzled over how/if it'd be possible for us to overland/camp in it. Was thinking a bed cap + tent on top would work, but I'm guessing I'd need reinforcement to hold a tent on it?

    I'm clueless.

    If you look at my rack it has multiple support points which was important to me.
    You can fit 5 people in the ikamper as long as each person is average size.

    Yes, this rack is one of the few that works with tonneau cover.

    Thanks! I looked at the website for the ikamper and it says "two adults and two children" or "three adults". I guess they are being generous with space?

    Also, it looks like the clearance would be pretty close if you have a trifold cover?

    They are over estimating for certain sizes.
