Are these 3 holes used for the diagonal brace of the rack? Is this a no drill install?

Also, I ordered my gladiator with the trail rail system, is that going to interfere with the rack?

We need somebody to get the leitner first!

I may be first to pick this up, of course I am waiting on Granite LE so PLENTY of opportunities for others to beat me to it as I sit in perpetual C status. Please do provide feedback if anyone gets it. Seems like this could be a great way of getting locking storage without giving up bed capacity

I really want a roll up locking tonneau cover that is compatible with this system.

I just installed the Leitner system and NO those three holes are not used. You need to drill two holes on each side to secure the rear brace for the Leitner system. They supply threaded rivets that are inserted in the holes so removal of rear brace is easy, if necessary.
Great system and great quality. I was really impressed with the powder coating of all parts in their system and fitness.

anybody watch this yet?
I'm seriously considering the decked system. I'm wondering if Leitner will be compatible with it. I liked what this guy said when he was talking about the rack actually holding the cargo inside the bed. Sure you would only be able to haul 7" of plywood above the deck and below the bed rails, but with a Leitner rack addition, you'll have a ton of verticle capacity.

What do you guys think?
I definitely want to add a decked drawer system to my Gladiator

No
Is it supposed to work with Leitner racks specifically?
It might not even work but it should.

Actually wait, no tonneau will work with leitner because it has two diagonal braces that go behind tailgate.

Did you have to remove the trail rail system or does it install over top?

Nope.. The rack connects to the trail rail system.

I posted some pics over in another thread.
