How to install the Elevate FS Rack (in t-slot rails)

[Waterfowler41]

Quick video I filmed showing how to assemble and install the Elevate FS rack so I can haul my kayak to and from the lake. Overall super easy rack to install and easy to remove or lower when I don't need it.

I see you have a roll up tonneau cover. Would these work in conjunction with a hard folding tonneau cover as well?

The cover is the Bak X4TS and has t slot rails the rack slides into so it’s a pretty slick system.

If you don't have the t-slots, you might be able to fit an Adarac with vertical uprights... I have the older rolling Bac X4s without the t-slots and I was able to fit the adarac on the bedrail just outside the cover with its stake pocket mounts. For a folding cover, you would just need to make sure you get a rack that is tall enough to allow you to fold, and has vertical uprights

I actually ran the adarac pro series rack on my last truck because it was the only rack I could find that worked with a tri-fold hard cover. Great set up and would've just transplanted the rack to my new truck if I didnt go with the X4ts. I also liked not having to use the stakehole pockets.
