Bed-mounted platforms that carry a rooftop tent, cargo, and recovery gear while keeping your cab clear and your weight low. Filter by brand and shop the racks built to fit your truck.
Find the best bed rack for your truck
A bed rack mounts over your truck bed — the strongest way to carry a rooftop tent, plus kayaks, traction boards, and the recovery gear that won't fit in the cab. Compared with a roof rack it keeps weight lower and your roofline clean, and many are height-adjustable or tonneau-compatible. Use the brand filter below to shop your favorite maker.

How to Choose a Bed Rack
Bed rack vs. roof rack — which do you need?
A bed rack mounts over your truck bed and is the go-to for a rooftop tent: it keeps weight lower than a roof rack, leaves your cab roofline clean, and still lets you haul long gear underneath. A roof rack mounts on the cab or SUV roof. Plenty of truck owners run a bed rack for the tent and a roof rack for everything else.
Cab-height vs. bed-height (low-profile)
Cab-height racks rise to about the top of your cab, so a tent sits level front-to-back and you can run a cover or gear underneath. Bed-height / low-profile racks stay closer to the bed rails for better rear visibility, garage clearance, and a sleeker look. Many racks are height-adjustable so you can dial it in.
Will it work with my tonneau cover?
Some systems are built to run alongside a bed cover or offer rails-only and rack-only options — like the Leitner ACS Tonneau and the Sherpa PAK. Others use the full bed. If keeping your tonneau matters, check the product page or text us and we'll confirm.
Weight capacity: dynamic vs. static
Dynamic capacity is what the rack carries while driving; static capacity is what it holds parked — the number that matters when two adults are asleep in a rooftop tent. Every rack lists its ratings, and we'll confirm fit for your setup.
Fitment & installation
Some bed racks are truck-specific and bolt to factory bed-rail points; others are adjustable and clamp to most beds with no drilling. Use the brand filter above, or send us your truck and we'll point you to the right fit.
Going overlanding? Plan the whole setup
A bed rack is the foundation. Add a roof top tent for sleeping and an awning for shade and rain cover.
