Think large Roof Top Tents and fully loaded setups. Highly recommended if you want to future-proof your build. Buy this once, and you'll never have to upgrade your rack as your gear/needs change.Heavy-duty loads

Safety
We care more about your safety than marketing jargon.
Competitors inflate their dynamic load numbers just to sell racks. We list realistic limits because we know firsthand that a top-heavy truck is a massive safety risk.

the Sherpa Community
"This rack is legit!! Easy to put together and easy for one person to build. Quality built and will last a lifetime. Also local Colorado guys are the best!!"
"Can’t say enough great things about the Sherpa product, their team and how it works on my truck. Best add-on to date on the rig. Top quality and super easy to install."
"Rack is awesome! So is the customer service at Sherpa. I was missing a fairing bracket and the boys overnighted me one with no hassle."
Do I have to drill into my vehicle/roof?
Can I install the rack myself?
How is the rack sealed off from water?
