A gear platform for your truck topper
The Sherpa Crow's Nest Sport truck topper rack adds an aluminum gear platform above a compatible camper shell. Choose the 5ft Bed or 6ft Bed option to match your setup, then check the topper's roof tracks before ordering. Adjustable mounting feet help accommodate roof shape and rack height. This is a topper-only system: the cab rack shown in some photos is not part of this product.
Use the extrusion channels to attach compatible gear mounts, or secure straps at the side plates. The rack can be used by itself or alongside Sherpa's Grand Teton Sport cab rack, purchased separately. Compatibility depends on your topper and its mounting system, not just the truck's bed length.

-
Rack load ratings: 150 lb dynamic and 300 lb static.
-
Materials and finish: Aluminum rack components, a textured black powder-coated finish, anodized black crossbars and stainless-steel hardware with a black-oxide finish.
-
Main kit components: Two side plates, crossbars and mounting brackets.
The listed lengths are rack dimensions, not full length-by-width-by-height measurements. Check the selected size against your topper before purchase. The rack's ratings do not establish the capacity of your shell or roof tracks; confirm those limits with their manufacturers and stay within the lowest applicable rating.
Check the mounting system before installation
This rack mounts through a roof-track system and needs eight track nuts. Sherpa describes the rack installation as drill-free when the required tracks are already present. That does not mean a bare topper roof is ready for installation. If your topper lacks tracks, confirm a suitable track installation with its manufacturer first.
The adjustable feet provide height and contour adjustment. For tracks without anchor plates, Sherpa identifies its anchor-plate option as M6-only. Check the track hardware before ordering rather than assuming every topper uses the same attachment.
Follow the Sherpa Crow's Nest installation guide for assembly and mounting. Sherpa links this guide from the Sport product page. Contact Sherpa support if your topper or track hardware needs a fitment check.
Truck topper rack FAQs
Does the kit include the rack over the truck cab?
No. This purchase is for the topper rack. Photos may show a separate cab rack, but it is not included.
How do the two bed-size options differ?
The short-bed choice has five bars across a 52-inch rack length. The long-bed choice has six bars across 64 inches. Bed size alone is not a fitment guarantee; also check the shell and track arrangement.
What does the load rating mean for my setup?
Sherpa publishes 150 lb for dynamic loading and 300 lb for static loading. Before carrying gear, check the topper, track system and accessory limits too. Do not treat the rack rating as permission to exceed another component's limit.
Will it install without drilling?
The rack attaches to existing suitable roof tracks without drilling for the rack itself. You need eight track nuts and the track system. A topper without those tracks requires a separate compatibility and installation assessment.
Can I change where the crossbars sit?
Yes. Sherpa's linked guide allows crossbar spacing to be set for the load. Arrange the bars to suit your gear's mounting points, following both the rack instructions and the accessory instructions.
