Questions & Answers

Will this fit a GMC Sierra 1500 from the year 2001?

Yes, it will fit in your truck, but you will need to drill holes in it.

There's a Ford F-150 waiting for you. 2020, 150 stx?

Claro

Is this going to work on a 2014 Sierra double cab (not a crew cab)? The rear doors on a double cab are narrower. ?

I mounted mine on a 2013 Ford F-150 extended cab and it worked perfectly.

When it's all put together, how tall is it? Is it possible for me to open a toolbox that requires 35" of clearance?

Where are you measuring from? The bars are 28" from the bed's side.

Soon enough, you'll be able to put it to the test
5/5

For my 1995 Toyota Tacoma, I purchased the AA Racks Model X31. To use the AA Rack aluminum C clamps (which I bought separately), I had to cut some holes in the bed liner. The rack section that attaches to the bed was a breeze to put together. It could be adjusted to fit the width and length of the bed. I have a Craftsman aluminum truck box that fits between the bed rail mounts, though I had to move it forward 4 inches. Picture instructions are included on the top portion of the rack, but they do not explain how to put the pieces together in the correct order. The nuts were accessed with a 13mm socket, while the bolts were accessed with a 15mm socket. With that said, one person can do it, but two people will make it much easier. I tightened all the nuts and bolts once everything was put together, and it now feels very solid. I intend to use this rack to transport 2x8x16 boards, so it will be put to the test. br>One thing to note is that the packaging included all of the necessary nuts and bolts, as well as a few extras, but I was missing several washers. The cardboard packaging, on the other hand, appeared to have been tossed around a lot. Although the larger box had a large hole in it and the bars were all bubble wrapped, a few of them had deep scratches and a small dent. Given that this vehicle will be used to transport lumber and piping, I'm confident that the minor dents and scratches will fade over time. I'll update this review once I've used it to transport lumber. br>br>Recent changes: br>br> I went to the big box store and bought 5 qty of wet 2"x8"x16' pressure treated boards. A 4qty was also purchased. 2"x4"x8' pressure-treated lumber, 2"x4"x8' pressure-treated lumber, 2"x4"x8' The rack accommodated the five long boards as well as two short boards. As far as I can tell, the rack took all of the weight in stride. The rack did not flex or twist in any way that I could see. I believe it was a success!.

This is a fantastic addition to any pickup truck! I decided to buy this AA rack after reading negative reviews on some lower-cost racks
5/5

Although there were no reviews for this rack, I was pleased to discover that it had none of the drawbacks and issues that the lower-cost racks had. The instructions were well written and included numerous photographs, which I found to be extremely helpful. I was able to complete the entire assembly without the use of any tools. The wind noise from the other racks was a source of complaint at highway speeds. I drove up the highway at 65 mph today and the AA rack made no additional noise. This is a great design that I would recommend to anyone looking for an over-the-cab rack for their truck!.

Toyota Tacoma, model year 2006
5/5

2006 Toyota Tacoma My 2006 Toyota Tacoma short bed is mostly plastic, as are most other owners of this model. So I kept looking into ladder racks for this plastic issue and couldn't seem to find anything that seemed solid without one specific brand that required dealers to install and didn't offer a DIY option. However, as you can see from my photo of me sitting on it, this one is overall great and very cautious. I ran into two problems: first, I had to remove the rails from my bed as well as the top plastic part; once that was done, I measured where to drill a hole in the side of the mounts and replace the railing with the same bolt. On top of that, I needed to drill two holes. Note that you'll need to remove the tool compartments in order to reach under the bolts and secure the nuts.
2. My short bed was just a tad shorter than the product required, but it was simple to make the necessary cuts, and the parts you cut will be hidden so you won't notice.

Never in my life have I been happier
5/5

In the last few years, I've never been happier with a product! The price is extremely low; I couldn't make a rack for less than the price I paid for this one. It's well-made, with seamless welds. It is strong due to the tube structure. The rack can be customized in a wide variety of ways. It adds to the appeal of a work truck. It's packed with features. On a Toyota Tacoma from the year 2016. Bolted rear supports just before the bed curves slightly, so it's not ideal to install it to the farthest back of the bed rail. On this type of bed, only two outer bolts were used on each support because the inside metal bed rail is not present for all of the bolts to be installed. With the two bolts in each support, the rack is well supported and solid. To install the bolts, the inner fender wells and the two in-fender wells must be removed. The storage boxes under the beds should be removed. Cutting the heads off and punching them out is the best way to remove the inner fender well grommets. It is impossible to save the grommets. I recommend ordering the Fender Grommets (30 each for $12) at the same time as this rack. Because my truck bed is 5', and I needed to shorten the rack due to the bed rail curve, I had to modify (Shorten) the rack, which was simple to do by cutting the slide sections shorter. It turned out to be a lot easier than I anticipated. A second person would have been ideal for the rails above the cab. Again, in the last few years, I've never been happier with a product!.

The rack is great, but the rear cross bar needs to be modified
4/5

For the price, this is an excellent product that is simple to set up. I'm not sure what some of the reviews mean when they say it's difficult to put together. If you can't put it together, you probably shouldn't be in any kind of trade. 5 hours on your own The back cross bar is not removable, which is the only drawback. I had to cut it off and weld a bar onto which I could remove it with pins.

There are some issues with this product, but it is very sturdy
3/5

I mounted this on a 2010 Toyota Tundra 4X4 extended cab with a 6' bed, and it deserves 5 stars in general, but the seller needs to understand that there are issues. The fact that the carriage bolts that were provided did not fit my bed was a major source of frustration for me. The Tundra has a double wall construction, which means you can't put a nut on the underside, but that's all the seller provides. Purchase 3/8" x 1 1/2" hex head lag screws to replace the ones included in the package, and drill your holes with a 1/4" bit. In an ideal world, the people who sold you this product would have done some field testing and discovered this. Amazon assured me that this would work with my setup. Shouldn't the lag bolts be included in the package just in case? Why not have instructions that are specific to your truck model? Isn't it a bit much? The product's quality is impressive, but the seller's attention to detail leaves a lot to be desired. Details that are crucial.
