    I ordered the BAMF low pro RTT rack for my 2011 crewmax. Should i pay extra for their powder coat or just use bedliner in a can? anyone done it?

    @jlee powdercoat is pretty tough. If you are throwing a tent on there and taking it on and off you’ll more than likely damage the coat doing that.
    You save a few bucks. If you have a hook up on powder I would say do that.

    I did spray Bed liner on mine.
    A good coat of etching primer
    A good coat of primer sealer
    A ton of spray liner.

    LineX shops might charge you more than PC, shop I spoke with said they waste too much material doing racks. Try to get a quote at your local lineX or bedliner company.

    Thanks. Touch up is easy too.
    Rustoleum. They have 2 different spray liners and they come out a little different.

    Yep. Steel rack.
    If you haven’t ordered better hop on. 260 for the mini rack is a steel...

    With the low profile rack can you open the RTT window closet to the cab? Or do the tent poles get in the way...?
