Bed Rack options from Xtrusion Overland

[ByzRiv]

Just back on island-completed install of rack last week. Quality is exceptional.

Looks awesome--any chance you could post a pic from the side at a distance? I'm curious how it looks from afar...

Any XO rack owners know if their racks are compatible with Agricover hard tri-fold? I have one, and the lip sits onto the bed edge a bit, which it looks like the XO rack may have clearance for...

Will do, send to you. It is raining in Hanalei right now pretty good- will be later on.

Could you please post a picture of the rear camera view thru the rack?

That is correct. It sits back a few inches from the fin.

i recently installed this height. I like the height in theory. But in practice I have a few issues. First, the camera is partially blocked and only shows the bed. Second, I have a low rumble which seems like it’s new air turbulence coming off the spoiler because of the gap. Third, long lead times. But it’s worth the wait.
Overall the product and build is great. Most likely I will order taller sides to increase the height.

Great thread!

Any body with the Xtrusion 19" rack, can you comment on added wind noise from the rack?

How about those of you with the 18" rack?

Thanks!

I am not noting any noise with the 19". I drive around with the windows closed most of the time without the radio on.

I DID place a rubber seal into the forward facing extrusion channel on the top front crossbar to try to limit noise and wonky airflow.

I have a 20” rack and can’t hear anything from the rack.

No noise from my 19” rack.

I mounted my James Baroud RTT the other day. I used four 1”x4” (actual thickness 3/4”) wood shims to raise the tent to just barely clear the spoiler and roof, up to the antenna. I’m trying to keep as low a profile as possible, both with the rack and the RTT. I knew I would need to shim it a bit, just didn’t know how much. So, everything turned out as planned with the 19” rack. On a couple of short highway test drives, with the tent, I noticed no noise and efficiency seemed to indicate minimal loss. Time will tell.

18” definitely has noise. Air interaction with the spoiler is my guess. I will eventually get taller.

Very cool. What model of JB tent is this? I’m trying to get a sense of the dimensions.

This is the Explorer model. Not sure this exact model is still available. Exterior dimensions are about 55”x78”. Interior dimensions are roughly 54”x76”. These are the same dimensions as the Evasion model. I think the main difference between the two models is the rear roof design. Were I to do it all over again, I would get the Evasion.

Awesome. Thanks for the quick reply. That’s a great fit for a relatively large tent. The design and color of the tent fit the truck really well, too. Nice work.
