Cab protection without the bulk

The Original keeps cargo off the cab and the rear window with a slim steel frame that barely changes the truck's lines. It reads as a clean accessory on a daily driver and a hard-working tool on a jobsite truck.

Room for ladders and long loads

Uprights and a full-width top bar carry ladders, pipe and lumber over the cab where they ride steady. Tie-down points sit right where your straps need them.

Ready for every workday

From an early lumberyard run to a late-evening drive home, the Original stays on the truck and stays out of the way. It protects the glass on every load without asking for any attention.

Frequently Asked Questions

Straight answers on specs, fit and support

Which installation kit do I need?

The Original frame needs one BackRack installation kit, sold separately. Use the kit table on this page: pick the standard kit for an open bed, a 21" or 31" crossover toolbox kit if you run a toolbox, the low-profile kit to set a toolbox flush with the bed, or a tonneau adapter kit if you have a cover.

Will I have to drill into my truck?

On most late-model trucks the standard and crossover toolbox kits mount with no drilling. The low-profile toolbox kit needs two holes drilled on each side of the bed rail, and trucks without front stake pockets generally need drilling.

Does it work with a tonneau cover?

Yes, with a BackRack tonneau adapter kit. Inside-rail kits suit covers that clamp to the inside lip of the bed, top-of-rail kits suit covers that sit on the rail, and some covers are not compatible, so check the kit table for your truck.

How much of the rear window stays visible?

Nearly all of it. The Original uses slim flat bars instead of a screen or louvers, so you can see through it almost as well as with no rack at all.

Can I mount lights on it?

Yes. BackRack light brackets bolt to the frame for work lights, beacons or a light bar. Lights and brackets are sold separately.

Is anything left out of the box?

Yes. The frame comes as a rack only. The vehicle-specific brackets, stake pocket bolts and hardware come in the installation kit you order with it.
