@limestoneR1T How does the 16" line up against the spoiler? Does the airflow go over top side of bracket? Been curious how the rack sitting directly in front of the spoiler airflow would affect it. Any pictures would be great!
Here’s a few pics.

Thank you!!! Finally, some side view pix to get a better idea of height relative to the roof.

I won't lie, I clicked here with the 10% expectation to see a rolled over R1T with an intact bed rack. Glad it wasn't that. This looks great, hopefully they can come up with some blocking that lets it span from 14-16" up to the height of the over cab bars for some flexibility with loading/aero.
Exactly, on the spacers!

Definitely looks awesome on that loaner. I love that I’m able to have full view on my rear view mirror. Ordering a slide out kit and awning mount for my kammok.
PSA: I have the 18” rack and slide out kit. With tonneau closed, there is not much vertical room between tonneau and rack to slide mounted accessories. For reference, a 5lb propane tank is the tallest item that fits. If you don’t have the tonneau, then this is not a limitation.

Are you hoping that the bed rack height can be same height as cab crossbar height? If so, they manufacture that height of bed rack, I’m pretty sure because I ordered it. Maybe I misunderstand what you Are wishing for? Or, I ordered the wrong bed size option.

I'm sure you ordered the right size! I was talking about an adjustable one. So primarily the lower height (below/in line with roof) to help with aero and then a bolt on extension above that to get the overall height up to what you ordered so it is flat with the roof crossbars.

That said, I'm not as adventurous as you all yet so won't need this anytime soon. I'll just be mounting my roof box when extra storage is needed.
