RCI 18" HD Bed Rack
Whether you're exploring rugged trails, setting up camp deep in the wilderness, or hauling essential gear to the jobsite, your truck deserves a rack that can handle it all. A reliable bed rack transforms your pickup into a fully capable expedition vehicle, giving you the flexibility to mount rooftop tents, recovery tools, and essential gear while keeping your bed space wide open and ready for action.
Enter the RCI 18″ Heavy Duty Bed Rack—the strongest, most versatile rack in the RCI lineup. With its fully adjustable width, rugged 3-crossmember design, and 18-inch height for maximum clearance, this rack fits nearly every truck on the market and carries everything you need, from spare tires to rooftop tents. If you're looking for a rack that delivers both utility and strength, this is it.
HD Bed Rack
This is the rack that does it all. Whether you're mounting rooftop tents, bikes, spare tires, or jerry cans, the RCI 18″ HD Rack is designed to handle serious gear with serious strength. With three full-width cross-members, it delivers unmatched load support while distributing weight evenly across your bed rails. Perfect for overland builds, weekend getaways, or worksite utility.
Fits Your Truck, Frees Your Bed
With an adjustable width between 55.5″ and 64″, this rack fits virtually all mid-size and full-size trucks—including those with tapered beds like Tacoma, Colorado, F-150, and RAM. The 18″ height adds clearance under the rack for tall gear (like a 35" spare tire) while maintaining rear-window visibility in most applications. It mounts directly to your truck’s bed rails or with optional no-drill clamps for a quick, clean install.
