Ruff Rax 2015-2026 Chevy Colorado / GMC Canyon 5 ft Modular Bed Rack: Carbon Steel, MOLLE Panels, 450 lb Dynamic Capacity
The Chevy Colorado and GMC Canyon punch well above their weight as overlanding platforms. Capable suspension, genuine four-wheel drive, and a 5 ft bed that is ready to work hard. The Ruff Rax 2015-2026 Colorado/Canyon Modular Bed Rack is purpose-built to turn that bed into a fully loaded overland base. Carbon steel construction, hybrid MOLLE panels, adjustable crossbars, and a complete 17-piece modular kit give you the foundation to run a rooftop tent, awning, cargo, and recovery gear at the same time. External bed rail mounting keeps everything clean and keeps your tonneau cover option open. Built for the Colorado and Canyon. Built for the long haul.
Single 5 ft bed variant. Expected release June 2026.
Carbon Steel Construction Built for Hard Use
The Ruff Rax Colorado/Canyon Bed Rack is fabricated from robust carbon steel throughout. Carbon steel is the right call for a truck bed rack that needs to carry a full rooftop tent and gear load without flexing under trail stress. The dual-stage black powder coat is applied in two bonded protective layers over the steel, delivering serious corrosion resistance, strong UV protection, and a surface that handles trail mud, road salt, and years of heavy use without breaking down. This is a rack engineered for the same conditions your Colorado or Canyon is built to handle.
450 lb Dynamic and 1,350 lb Static Load Capacity
With a 450 lb dynamic capacity and 1,350 lb static capacity, the Ruff Rax Colorado/Canyon Bed Rack is rated to carry a large rooftop tent, two occupants, and a full gear setup running simultaneously. The dynamic rating is your real-world number for road and trail use with a loaded rack. The 1,350 lb static rating gives you substantial headroom above any realistic overnight camp deployment. For a mid-size truck bed rack, these are serious load ratings that cover every overlanding use case without leaving you wondering about capacity limits.
Hybrid MOLLE Panels and Adjustable Crossbars
The built-in hybrid MOLLE panels give you a purpose-built mounting surface for gear, tools, and accessories directly on the side panels of the rack. MOLLE compatibility means you can configure your load-out exactly as you need it for each trip and change it just as quickly when your mission shifts. The adjustable crossbars let you set the spacing for your rooftop tent, cargo boxes, or gear without being locked into a fixed layout. The entire system is built around field adaptability, not just workshop setup.
External Bed Rail Mounting for Tonneau Cover Compatibility
The Ruff Rax Colorado/Canyon Bed Rack mounts to the external bed rail with no holes drilled into the bed floor. Your bed stays fully intact. The external rail mounting approach also maintains compatibility with tonneau covers, so you can keep your covered bed protection in place while running a full overland rack setup above it. Clean install. No compromise on bed functionality.
17-Piece Modular Kit: Expandable Over Time
Every Ruff Rax Colorado/Canyon Bed Rack ships as a complete 17-piece modular kit with all required hardware included. Nothing extra to source before you can get started. The modular platform is also built for long-term expansion. Ruff Rax awning mounts, tent riser brackets, and inside MOLLE panels integrate directly with the base rack, so you can build your Colorado or Canyon overland setup progressively as your adventures grow.
