Rock Slide Engineering RK-100-TAC3 Overland Rack Basic Kit for 16-26 Toyota Tacoma Short Bed
Low-Profile Modular Foundation: Engineered specifically for the Gen 3 and Gen 4 Tacoma short bed, this basic kit provides a sleek, low-profile mounting surface that keeps your center of gravity low while offering a rigid platform for essential gear.
High-Strength Steel Build: Constructed from 10-gauge and 12-gauge steel, this rack is built to endure heavy trail vibrations and off-road abuse, providing far more structural integrity than standard aluminum bolt-together systems.
Multi-Point Accessory Mounting: The rack features a series of pre-cut slots and holes along the side panels and cross members, allowing for the easy installation of recovery boards, fuel cans, hi-lift jacks, or lighting without custom fabrication.
Durable Dual-Stage Coating: To combat the elements, each rack undergoes a rigorous multi-stage finishing process, including a zinc-rich primer and a textured black powder coat for maximum corrosion and UV resistance.
No-Drill Bed Rail Integration: Designed to mount directly to the Tacoma's factory bed rail system, this kit ensures a secure fit that can be installed or removed with basic hand tools, preserving the integrity of your truck's body panels.
Note: Long bed Tacoma's will require the Overland Rack Extension (RK-104-TAC3).
The Rock Slide Engineering Overland Rack Basic Kit is the essential starting point for building a professional-grade overlanding rig on your 2016-2026 Toyota Tacoma Short Bed.
