I’ve got the same exact setup and I love it. Put it on the week I bought the truck and gave it hell

Solid looking rack, thanks for the update! Very in-depth.

Nice truck man. I had the same one with a Diesel. Head gasket went 😢 now I’m in a Sierra AT4. Gonna get the same rack setup.

Good stuff...i just bought one. Thanks for review

Thanks a lot!! I enjoy making them😁✌️ and I appreciate the continued support 🙏

Do you have photos of this setup with the lower rack installed and loaded?

What size length cross bars are you running?

Are you happy with the tonneau cover? I’m thinking of a very similar setup, but can’t decide on a cover.

Sorry, I asked the question about tonneau cover too early... I see now the answer is in your video... THANK YOU.

Does Yakima make an accessory for the side supports where the channel is you had the Carriage bolts to mount a bicycle carrier?

Soooo can you open up the tonail cover?

I would only use it 6 times per year or so when we take our kayaks camping (with travel trailer). How easy are these to remove and put on?

Can this rack be used on a 2019 ram with a roll up tonneau cover?

Does the work with a folding tonneau like the bakflip g2

What length crossbar are you using??

Do you know the total weight for the racks and the tonneau cover. Great setup but I'm concerned about payload because I'm going to pull a trailer as well

@varsityoverland

Unfortunately I dont know the weight but I honestly wouldn't be too concerned. Since its aluminum its pretty light. Id check the specs on yakima if you're able

Great review! But I am wondering why did you switch from the bolts to the Yakima recovery board mounts? Not sure if I missed that part of video, but just curious as to why you made the switch? Thanks!

Hey there! I bought the recovery board mount at the same time I bought the rack. Unfortunately my old recovery boards didn't fit so I held onto the mount until I bought Maxtrax. The old bolts were just temporary in order to mount my old boards.

First attempt at hauling a kayak will be this Spring. Ill post an update 👍

Do they slide down any more so it’s not such an air gap between a tent and the cab? I have a zr2 as well and want to run a bed rack/tent combo and also still use my tailgate pad for MTB

@varsityoverland

Yes they can slide down to a point where the tent and cab wouldn't have a gap. Mine is a bit higher in order for my tent to clear the cab rack.

They do make shorter versions as well not just the standard size you see most people get.

Why did you decide to go with the Overhaul HD, over the Out Post rack?

@varsityoverland

Жыл бұрын

My tooftop tent is too long to fit on the lower Outpost rack. The Overhaul HD allows my tent to extend over the cab of my truck

When you lower the upper part all the way down, does it get lower the the truck roof?

@Stackle2

6 ай бұрын

Not lower per se, but out of the slipstream. Maybe even with the roof or an inch above?

I'm trying to buy the Yak HD Overhaul at my local dealer now. He doesn't have the HD cross bars so he is pushing the Jet Stream bars instead. I'm concerned the Jetstreams will not hold the tent platform as well as the HD bars. Store is saying the Jetstream bars are just as good but more aero dynamic. Anyone have any opinions of the Jetstream cross bars? I suspect he is pushing them because he doesn't have the HDs in stock.

@varsityoverland

I personally wouldn't substitute the HD bars for Jet Streams. I've owned both and the HD bars are much thicker. That is just my opinion 🤷‍♂️

@@varsityoverland I appreciate and value your experiences. I felt the same way about the Jet Streams. I have found another dealer that does have the HD bars in stock so I may have to pick this up in pieces between the 2 dealers and assemble it myself.

@topwaterpursuit The assembly is straight forward and the Yakima instructions are well written. They also include a lot of diagrams of the installation. Feel free to message me with any questions too👍

I was very nervous putting my brand new beach cruiser on this rack. kzread.infoUgkxG6JIgwJhur8_Rg8UeQ3EmePzi_wSncL8 But after reading many reviews I decided to get this one and take a chance. When arrived it was very simple to adjust and put together. I also added spike tape over the metal hooks before securing and tightening the straps, and no scratches. I also purchased the top bar made by the same company so that my cruiser sits straight on the rack without having to turn upside down. Extra bungee cords are used to secure the front wheel from flapping and even piece of mind knowing your bike is secure. Definitely recommend...

Pretty sure the on-road spec is 500lbs, off-road is 300lbs and static is 800lbs.
