Hello everyone 👋 I’m new to this forum and from the Phoenix/mesa AZ area! I just picked up a ‘21 Gladiator Willy’s. The truck has some mods and the dealership was not very helpful in identifying any of the them. Anyways, I want to order a Bakflip tonneau cover but I’m first trying to figure out what kind of rack this is and if the tonneau will fit without it being removed. Thanks for the help!

The rail system just looks like a diy Unistrut rail system.
I doubt a tonneau cover will fit without modifications to either the cover or rail since they are ment for oem style rails

That's a custom-engineered industrial fastening system, manufactured by McMaster-Carr most likely. Rare breed. Makes that JT basically 1 of 12,000.

That was just Unistrut. I bet any cover using clamps would work with it. You just might need a generic clamp.

the nice thing about unistrut is there are SO MANY fastener types available. you could find mounting solutions for anything in your trail bag/box.

Trail rail looks a little better if you are going for cosmetics but the strut worked fine for my billie bar rack and diamond back cover.
