The rack itself is what i expected, its made out of steel and it has lots of mount points for accessories.
Now, No installation instructions or instructions whatsoever. I'm not really a fan of the zinc coated shiny bolts on the black frame, I'll be painting those and I think they should come powder coated to match the frame. The connection on the bed rails is quite honestly just a terrible design. My Toyota has mount rails which are like unistrut and the saddlles they put on the base of the rack don't extend low enough to bolt directly to the mount rails so they give you a plate that bolts to the saddles and then bolts to the mount rails. It's super goofy and an ugly connection. Besides the terrible connection design, my kit seems to have come with extra parts? I have an extra top spine piece and a couple stainless plates that I have no Idea what would be used for, because, you guessed right, there are no installation instructions. Overall I think 3 out of 5 is a pretty generous rating for this rack.

RCI 18” rack
Great product from a great company with impeccable communication about wait times and shipping.
Hi Frank, thank you for your review and thank you for the pictures! The Rack looks fantastic on your truck!
The front wind fairing arrived with a small bend where the bolts hold it to the roof rails. It took forever to bolt to my roof due to the bent metal and I'm a little worried it won't hold.
Exceptional Product and Outstanding Customer Service!
I recently purchased the Tuff Stuff Alpine SixtyOne Aluminum Shell Roof Top Tent from Roof Top Overland, and I couldn't be more satisfied with both the product and the exceptional customer service I received.
