Roof rails and bed rails

Bboozer1 · 2022-06-03T18:14:14-0400

Do any of you that have your trucks have the roof or bed rails? Are they easy to install and remove? I was thinking that that I would probably get both when my turn to order comes around, but I would most likely just store them in the garage until I knew I was going to need them...

I've been quite curious about these, as well (esp. the bed cross bars). I already have cross bars, so would love to have a way to reuse them, so might end up trying the Truxedo Elevate rails: https://truxedo.com/elevate-ts-rails
No experience with these, but they seem to work with a lot of different retractable bed covers, depending on how the cover attaches to the bed rails. I currently have the Rhino crossbars which are on a quick release for my TRX.

Bumping this thread because I'm curious as well.

Thanks @Dark-Fx... I am still waiting to see/hear about these...

Do they offer a rack to carry SUP’s? Some might want to carry kayaks as well.

The rails serve as the base for whatever rack you want to add.

I’m just trying to figure out the best option to carry my SUP board as they are 12’ long. Generally you need a tall rear rack they allows the sup/kayaks to utilize the full length of vehicle.

I suppose it might be ok to use the cabin roof rack

I would probably be considering adding these on with the rails on the roof for your use case: GMC Accessories

Wow! That’s pretty damn awesome! Thanks!! Exactly what I would get. Looks like you can still use the rear cargo cover manual or powered option

Reviving this thread a bit. I got the cross bed rails accessories and was curious, do these work with a lot of standard sizes of cargo carriers? I.e. Some Thule ones usable if dimensions are right? Don't see any GMC official items to use with these yet.

Are they completely static or is there any ability to move the feet around? The ones on my current truck mount to a t-track.

They look static, no rails they slide on the side. So set distance apart.

Let us know when you get yours... I am curious if they are easy remove when you are not using them... Same question for the roof racks...
