Customer Reviews for VEVOR Truck Rack, 46-71inch Extendable Truck Ladder Rack, 800 lbs Capacity Steel Ladder Rack for Truck with Non-Drilling J-bolts, Heavy Duty Truck Bed Rack for Kayak, Surfboard, Lumber, Ladder

It's doing it's job on my 1997 Mazda b2300. I recently placed 6x12x12 on it. 12 total. Pretty heavy wood for a planter project.

We purchased a camper this summer, so I also got a couple kayaks. That became a problem because the teuck bed was loaded with wood, bikes, and other supplies. This rack was a cheap, but reliable way to transport the kayaks while going camping!

I was skeptical as this was the first thing I ever ordered from Vevor but it turned out great. Rack is not something I need often so I didnt want to spend thousands. This was perfect, easy enough to install even with my hard cover (has to stay open) and take off when I am done with it.

Good quality for the price point. Even easier to install. My flat bottom lowe fits while unright. Better than the last boat rack I bought. Would buy again

I purchased it to carry two kayaks and it works great for that. Assembly was also straight forward.

This item did not arrive with the correct hardware kit, which wasn't a big deal in and of itself, but when I attempted to contact customer service to address the issue, I had nothing but a hard time. They required that I email photos of everything, and then indicated that they would get back to me in 3-5 business days. After 6 days, I attempted to reach out again. After almost 3 weeks of going back and forth, they finally offered me $15.00 if I just keep it. It took me another week to get even that. The item itself was ok, once I purchased the necessary pieces to actually install it, but the customer service from this company stinks. I will not purchase anything directly from this company again.

Decent rack. Easy to assemble and surprisingly sturdy It's a little bit taller than I would like but not terrible. It would be nice if it sat a bit wider so you could use it with a toolbox.

I'd say the biggest drawback to this design is the multipiece crossbar. The multi peace cross bar does allow you to add a little extra section in the middle, I think, but it doesn't make up for the fact that the joint loosens up due to the compressibility of the member and overall has less rigidity. I would not go so far as to say. It is bad, but there are similar products on the market that have a single peace cross bar. On the other hand the alternatives cost more and don't come with free shipping. This one should be adequate for me since I probably will only use it a couple times a year and the rest of the time it will be hanging on the wall in my shop. I do like the camper shell style hold down clamps that don't require drilling any holes in your truck bed. Those certainly cover most of the price of the unit.

Wind noise is very loud at 45 MPH and above. I wrapped electrical tape around the top of each post thinking that would help but it did not. Next step is to apply duck tape to cover the groves in the rails and post, if this helps I will remove the tape and fill the groves with caulking.

Overall, this is a very good product - especially for the price. If you happen to have a Honda Ridgeline, the clamps supplied won't fit your bed rails, so you will have to find a different way to mount it. I installed some strut channels on the sides of my truck bed (easy, due to existing mouting bolts) to which I bolted some angle brackets which the rack base bolts onto quite securely. Another slight problem is that racks whistle fairly loudly at highway speed, but it's only really noticeable with your windows or the sunroof open. The whistling is caused by the shape of the rack bar, but there's a product available which breaks up the wind flowing over them and supposedly makes them much quieter.
