Loadd Lo-rackk Bed Racks installed

[Gardnetm]

Haven't seen anyone else review these racks for the Maverick yet, so figured I'd share my experience with these racks. They are relatively inexpensive at just $589, and have plenty of weight capacity for any RTT or other toys you might want to put on top of the Maverick bed. The height is just perfect too, allowing a little room to see out the rear view mirror, but maintaining a low enough profile to avoid turning a RTT into a sail.

I just installed the Loadd Lo-rackk on my Maverick today and have to say I was impressed with the overall quality, packaging, and heft of the all-aluminum brackets and rails. I wasn't sure how it would fit with my Bakflip MX4 tonneau cover, since the website said some modification might be required. I added a strip of 1/2"x1/4" weather stripping around the perimeter of the tonneau, which compressed nicely under the loadd brackets but still left enough thickness under the tonneau rail to seal everything up like it's supposed to be. Other than that, no modification was required to the truck, brackets, or tonneau. The width between tonneau rails is now slightly less, but there was enough slop in the tonneau assembly so the slats still click in easily and securely, albeit only when the rails are removed. Overall, I couldn't be happier with the purchase, now looking forward to adding a RTT. Hope this helps someone else out there. Happy Mavericking!

Can you open your (tri-fold?) tonneau with this installed? Looks like it's tall enough to open a hard roll-up but I can't figure out how a folding tonneau would open

Nope! If you take the cross bars off then it works normally. I think a soft tonneau would easily roll up underneath, maybe a hard roll up too. It's a sacrifice, but one I'm willing to make. And yes, it's a trifold.
