Mounts for recovery boards, pressurized water tanks, extra fuel canisters, etc can be installed on the racks thanks to all of the accessories available from Leitner. All of this is possible because of a quad rail, t-slot design for the rails. This gives you unlimited mounting options on all 4 sides of each rail, anywhere up and down its length to fine tune your setup. This also means other companies accessories may be able to bolt onto the rack too. The bed rails are equally as adaptable being able to accept t-slot hardware as well.

Having a ton of mounting options for gear is good but what makes it great is how robust the rack is.

Designed to be compatible with the DECKED storage system, this combination of bed rack and bed organizer gives you the ultimate in storage solutions for your bed along with still having a bed for doing truck stuff.

What gives the rack such high capacity (at a relatively like weight) are it's aluminum alloy, forged uprights on all 4 corners. These were designed have a high strength-to-weight ratio not only for static forces but also to help keep the rack system from torsional twist. When all 4 of the uprights are connected with the aluminum quad rails, it becomes a very rigid unit made to take on whatever adventure you can throw at it. All of this from a bolt-together rack leads to an impressive and versatile bed/rack storage solution that’s ready for anything you can imagine.
