Built from high-strength aluminium with heavy-duty crossbars and a dual-stage black powder coat, it delivers a 400 lb dynamic and 800 lb static load capacity without the front light bar cut-out. That means a clean, unbroken roofline up front. Ideal if you are not running a cab-mounted light bar or prefer to keep the rack profile streamlined. Same Ruff Rax aluminium construction, same modular expandability, same limited lifetime warranty. Just without the cut-out.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eSingle variant. Expected release May 2026.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHigh-Strength Aluminium Built for the RAM 2500 and 3500\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 2011-2026 RAM 2500 and 3500 is a serious heavy-duty platform, and the Ruff Rax Roof Rack is built to match it. High-strength aluminium construction with heavy-duty crossbars delivers the structural integrity to handle full rooftop tent setups, cargo boxes, and recovery gear on the HD RAM cab without adding unnecessary mass to the roof. Aluminium keeps the roof weight low for better handling dynamics on technical terrain and better fuel efficiency on the highway runs between trailheads. The dual-stage black powder coat bonds two protective layers to the aluminium for deep corrosion resistance and UV protection that handles the full range of overland and work conditions season after season.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWithout Light Bar: A Clean Roofline Up Front\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Without Light Bar version of the Ruff Rax RAM 2500\/3500 Roof Rack features a solid front crossbar with no cut-out section. If you are not running a cab-mounted light bar, this is the right choice. It gives you a cleaner look, an uninterrupted mounting surface across the full front crossbar, and a slightly simpler profile overall. If you do want to run a light bar with your rack, the light bar cut-out version is also available at offroadtents.com. Contact our team if you need help choosing the right variant for your build.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003e400 lb Dynamic and 800 lb Static Load Capacity\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith a 400 lb dynamic rating and 800 lb static rating, the Ruff Rax RAM 2500\/3500 Roof Rack Without Light Bar is fully rated for a complete rooftop tent setup with cargo and accessories running simultaneously. The dynamic rating covers your load while the truck is moving on road or trail. The 800 lb static rating gives you solid headroom above any realistic tent and occupant load when deployed and stationary overnight at camp.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eModular Design for Long-Term Expansion\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Ruff Rax RAM 2500\/3500 Roof Rack Without Light Bar is built as a modular platform for ongoing expansion.
