Attaching Fishbone bed rack to trail rail system

[Woolybuger11]

I am wanting to attach my Fishbone full rack to my factory bedrail system, I will be adding my 180lb RTT to the top and some Roto Packs ect. My bed rack has 12 bolt holes that line up perfectly to the bed rails and most of the weight sits on top of the bed sides itself. Will the rails hold the rack and tent Picture of how it is set up included. I am just trying to not have to remove my bed rails.

Did you buy it new? It should have come with 10 T-nuts for attaching it to the trail rail system.

No it came with clamps that fit under the bed rail. I just want to use the trail rail system. I'm asking if it's strong enough to handle the weight.

Yes it is, because the weight of the rack and tent, etc is supported by the sides of the bed. The clamps or bolting to the trail rail is to just keep everything in place and prevent it from shifting around. I do not have the same rack, but I have a bed rack and RTT that I have used and it was attached to my trail rails.

Thank you.

Here is a link worth a photo of the hard wear, the t-nuts are in the far right bag, 10 of them.
