2024 Tacoma TRD Off-Road
Hey Tacoma owners,

One of the biggest questions we get is: "Can I keep my tonneau cover and still add a bed rack for my RTT or kayaks?" The answer is YES. You don't have to choose between bed security and hauling capacity.

The Conclusion (TL;DR) :
For most Tacoma setups, the most efficient way to increase upper cargo space is by using a T-slot compatible bed rack system. This allows you to mount heavy gear above the bed while maintaining full use of a T-slot integrated tonneau cover.

1. The Vehicle & Fitment
Specifically for the 2024+ Toyota Tacoma, bed space is premium. Our TRUMGETA Universal Adjustable Rack is designed to fit mid-size and full-size beds perfectly.

2. The Bed Cover Solution
If you have a tonneau cover with integrated T-slot tracks (like Retrax, Roll-N-Lock, or some BakFlip models) , this rack is a game-changer.
  • It mounts into the T-slots, meaning your cover can still open and close freely underneath the rack.
  • You get waterproof storage inside the bed and unlimited mounting on top.

3. Installation & Strength
  • No-Drill: Uses a solid bolt-on system that attaches to your T-slot tracks in under 1.5 hours.
  • Weight Rating: This system is a beast—rated for 600 lbs static and 400 lbs dynamic.
  • Adjustable Height: Dial in the perfect height to keep your RTT aerodynamic or high enough to clear long items like lumber.

4. Best Use Cases
  • Overlanding: Mount your RTT and cargo boxes on top while keeping your fridge and camping kitchen dry under the cover.
  • Water Sports: Perfect for carrying Kayaks or Paddleboards without taking up any bed space.
  • Work & Play: Haul ladders during the week and surfboards on the weekend.
