When we head out for adventures we often pack the bed to the gills, clothes... food... paddle boards... recovery gear, etc. We need a little more space and have a good sized roof box but no place to install it.

Bed rack seems the normal option, but I don't necessarily want it on all the time. And adjustable height would be ideal too. Sometimes low for a cargo box or sometimes high for kayaks. And needs to work with Tonneau cover and be removable relatively easily.

So I haven't seen anything that would meet all those needs but for the Yakima Overhaul bars with the slot feet. Who has them, and are they fiddly? Any other choices?

Vanguard offers a side rail for attachment points. Anything on quality from them?

I just bought a set to mount on my BAKFLIP Revolver X4s tonneau. I’ll post up some pics as soon as I get it mounted.

No problem. That’s what these forums are for.

Note: I bought the Overhaul HD used on FB. It came with 58-inch HD rails and the short bed side rails. The guy advertised it as the “tonneau kit” but when I got there it was not…. It took me a couple weeks to find the Tonneau Kit 1. If anyone buys this set up, make sure it is the tonneau version.

I hope to get some pics this weekend. I am wiring up lights in the bed this AM. Rack later today.

I’ve got the overhaul hd. It’s a solid rack. I’ve only used it for ladders though.

anything specific you want to know?

@j.o.y.ride @Slojo sorry for taking so long on this. I have been working on other JT upgrades. Here is what I found today….

If someone has access to a Retrax version, I would like to know the thickness of the outer rail.

It appears to get this to installed, I will need to trim at least 5/16” off the plastic adapter piece that comes with the Yakima Tonneau Kit 1. Before I do that, I want to do some additional research. I had a really tough time finding this kit. The other gaps should be easily filled.

The positive is the hardware fits in the channels well. I believe with a bit of trimming on the plastic adapter, the rack should work. More to come.

Do you have it mounted via the slots on the BAK Revolver X4s or using the “clamps” to the bed caps? Thanks.

Looking back over these pictures, I realized that I was not looking at how the "feet" of the adjustable towers overlap the seal of the BAK Revolver X4s tonneau. I'll take a look again, but this would mean the Yakima Overhaul HD with Tonneau Kit rack would not work. Meaning, you would not be able to open your tonneau cover with the rack installed.... more to come.

Thanks for these pics, this is what I'd been thinking about doing for months. Looks like it won't work, dammit. Might have to switch out to a Retrax instead, but that would suck $$$$.

Were you able to adapt these at all? Could you post or send measurements of the feet for the Retrax? I may be able to get a machinist buddy to make a set that would work.
