The Tuff Stuff® 51" bed rack is ideal for use with most roof top tents and truck beds. Our bed rack is designed to universally install directly on top of any truck bed rail using our provided pinch plates.
We offer two Bed Rack sizes
- 40" RTT Bed Rack
- 51" RTT Bed Rack (this rack)
Due to this rack being universal (not made for any specific vehicle) we have included custom pinch plates that will pinch the inner lip of your bed rails. This allows the installation to be performed without drilling holes into the bed rails.
Our bed rack WILL NOT FIT if there has been a tonneau cover, or any other accessories installed that affect the inner walls of the bed rails.
Our rack uses a unique sliding center rail which allows the rack to be installed on various widths of beds from full-size Ford F350’s to mid-size Toyota’s.
For Toyota's using the factory-installed cargo rail system, our rack will perfectly align with your rail and would require the use of custom T-nuts that can accept 3/8″ diameter bolts. These can be purchased as an addon.
Important:
1st generation Ford Raptor beds have no lip to attach the rack, so you will have to use nut-inserts, self-drilling screws, or anchors to install the rack on the bed.

FAQ:
Yes, this is a universal mounting system.
Which Tuff Stuff Overland tents can be used with this rack?
The Elite, Alpha, and Stealth tents will properly fit with this tent. Any other brand tents that are 51" or longer will also mount. Keep in mind, you want all 3 bars supporting the bottom of the tent.
What can I place on top of these crossbars?
They are designed for a Roof Top Tent but you can pretty much mount anything to the top of this rack. Things like lumber, piping, etc.
Can we mount other accessories to the mount?
Absolutely, you can mount sand tracks, farm jacks, RotopaX cans, shovels to the side, and just about anything you need to take on the offroad adventure.
Can I use my tonneau cover and my tent rack at the same time?
No, unfortunately, you have to pick one or the other. We're working on a rack design that will allow for use of both at the same time.
Can I use this rack with the new Jeep Gladiator?
Yes! If you prefer a shorter rack you can use our Tuff Stuff® Roof Top Tent Truck Bed Rack, Adjustable, Powder Coated 40" instead.
