This kit includes the base rack system and the Accessory Top Side Panels in one convenient package. The accessory top panels are made of 1/8" 5052-H32 Aluminum and provide a multitude of slots and holes to mount whatever you need to bring with you on your adventures whether it be MaxTrax, RotoPax, tools or skis.
The ARS Bed Rack Middle Support add-on provides added accessory mounting options for your Bed Rack. The slick sided T5 extruded aluminum beams have 5/16th T-Slots allowing customized/variable lashing/mounting positions.
The 1/8" steel bed towers provide rigid attachment to the bedsides while ABS protective pads distribute load on the bed. Light-weight, strong, slick sided T5 extruded aluminum load beams allow mounting options across the full length with 5/16th T-slot versatility.
Our bed rack system utilizes 1.5” X 3.0” 5063-T5, Slick-Sided Aluminum Extrusions for the crossbeams and Center Support Kit because they are light and extremely strong.
ARS made the conscious effort to have the slick-sided part of the extrusions face outward, giving the rack system a clean, polished look. Most other companies opt for the easy, less-expensive approach, whereas we choose to build our systems under the philosophy of “do what it takes to make it right”.
Note: The JT Gladiator truck must have the factory trail rail system on the vehicle to mount the Hi-Riser Bed Rack System.
