Q: I have a Tonneau Cover and want to install a RealTruck Backrack. Can this be done?
A: Yes, but only Tonneaus that clamp to the inside rail of the truck bed will be compatible. To find out if your tonneau cover is compatible, please use our "Build My Rack" tool.
Q: I have a bedliner in my truck. Can I install a RealTruck Backrack with it?
A: Easily. Under the rail liners are the easiest. Simply remove the liner, install the Stake Pocket Bolts, then reinstall the liner and attach your RealTruck Backrack. With an over the rail liner the procedure is the same however, you may need to drill holes through the top rail of the liner for the SPBs to protrude through. It is best to place Rail Plates under the liner on over the rail liners. Call or email any questions to info@backrack.ca
Q: I have a Toolbox on my truck. Can I install a RealTruck Backrack with it?
A: Yes. The Toolbox Bracket mounting system allows you to install a Toolbox without drilling holes in your truck. Your Toolbox sits on top of two channels allowing you to mount the Toolbox up against the RealTruck Backrack Frame. This leaves a minimal gap between the Toolbox and the RealTruck Backrack. Without the Toolbox Brackets, a gap of eight to fourteen inches will exist between the Toolbox and the RealTruck Backrack. The Toolbox is fastened to the Toolbox Brackets as opposed to being drilled or fastened to your truck bed. This means no holes drilled in your truck to fasten the Toolbox.
Q: Do the Toolbox Brackets come included with the RealTruck Backrack?
A: If you specify that your truck has a Toolbox when ordering, the Toolbox Brackets will be included in the large carton. ( order Part # 10519 TB instead of Part # 10519 ).
Q: Can the Toolbox Brackets be purchased separately if I add a Toolbox later?
A: Yes. If purchasing the Toolbox Brackets separately you will replace the Railmount Brackets and Rail Plates that came with the RealTruck Backrack when you purchased it. Keep in mind that selling the Toolbox Brackets separately allows the dealers to keep less inventory.
Q: What is the standard length of the Toolbox Brackets?
A: 21 Inches. This is the length of the channel that the Toolbox sits on.
Q: I have an extra large Toolbox. Do you offer longer Toolbox Brackets?
A: Yes. 31 Inch Toolbox Brackets are available for all trucks excluding Compacts.
Q: I ordered Toolbox Brackets. There are no fasteners in the box. Why?
A: Toolbox Brackets that are sold separately ( 91010, 91011, 91012, 91013, 91010-C ) are meant to replace the existing Mounting Brackets and Rail Plates that came with the RealTruck Backrack. Along with the existing Brackets came a Hardware Bag containing all fasteners. You use the fasteners in the original Hardware Bag to install the Toolbox Brackets. Basically, you are removing the Railmount Brackets and Rail Plates and replacing them with the Toolbox Brackets.
Q: Do I still use the Rail Plates with the Toolbox Brackets?
A: No. The Toolbox Brackets are designed to sit directly on the bed rails.
Q: How do I know which Light Bracket Accessory I need?
A: You need to establish where on the RealTruck Backrack you want to locate the light ( Drivers Side, Passenger Side or Center ) and determine what size the light is ( Diameter or Length & Width ).
