Hi, everyone. Steven here with etrailer.com. Today we're looking at our Thule Thule TracRac Utility Rack Sliding Ladder Rack for your utility vehicles. Now this, folks, is considered the short version of this Thule TracRac utility rack. They do make this in different heights. This is the short one.
Now when this is installed, it'll look something like this photo. Keep in mind it's a utility bed that this is going on and bolting in place. Now, I wanna point out as well, from the beginning, I've only got about half of this rack set up here for demo today due to space constraints and those kind of things, and some of it is loose fitting so bear with me today. I do wanna open an image of what you're gonna get in the box. You're gonna get all the hardware, all the uprights, all the support legs, all the knobs, all the L brackets for the ladder rack, tie down points, those kind of things.
Every kind of space you need, everything you're gonna get. So what you're seeing before you, you're basically gonna get this times two. And again, all the hardware has been pretty much used with the exemption of, obviously, this isn't bolted onto a bed yet. Now getting into it, this adjustable ladder rack will slide in unique T-track base rails. So these rails here that you see on the side, if I zoom in here, you can get a better view.
These are a T-track slot. If I loosen this knob here, this could slide forward and back. Now I'm gonna try to do it gently, or at least slide the base here just to kind of show you. Keep in mind I'm not bolting in anything. So that's about as far as I'm gonna be able to go safely today.
But this can slide forward or back about six to eight inches, give or take. You can buy extra rails versus what this comes with, sold separately if you wanna be able to slide the full length of that utility rack. Now I've got it zoomed in here, again, you have nice quick locking knobs. You've got anchor points here. The uprights here are only about 17 inches tall. And on the top here you've got a locking knob, and then you can loosen and slide this anchor point along with the other side. And then, let's see, you have a piece of piping here maybe. You tighten these down, now it's not going anywhere. More importantly, you're probably using it for maybe a ladder or something like that. You tighten it down, move this one to where you need, tighten 'em both down, and then whatever's in here, again, is not going anywhere. So a very simple design, very nice. You got anchor points here and here. And the fact this can slide all the way out to the edge is pretty impressive. Now everything here is a nice aluminum construction. It's not gonna rust or corrode. They've e-coated this followed by a clear coat for improved resistance to scratches. So they've done that. Again, everything's aluminum. It's lightweight, but sturdy. Now the overall length of these upright bars are gonna be pretty long. Let's get a measurement on them. And that's gonna be to hold lots of gear for you. I'm right at about 69 and a half long. So 69 and one half inches long on the overall width of those bars. And again, 17 inches from the base here to the bottom of the support bar. So again, this is a nice option for you if you're looking for a rack for your utility beds. And again, they're gonna be some drilling required to install this. You're gonna get two of these uprights and everything. These can hold 1,250 pounds carrying capacity when you use 'em both together. So they're gonna be very nice. Now you have a wide base option on these bases here. You can flip this sideways if you need to to fit your specific utility bed, and that will give you a wider kind of stability there. And then this slot here, your base would be on that upright versus the other one. So it could drop it potentially a little lower if you need that. Or just depending on your utility bed, how you need to install it. Now this, again, is a 6,000 series aluminum construction. It's very strong and durable. The top here is an airflow design. So air goes right up and over it, which is gonna make 'em quieter. You don't have to worry about vibrations and those kind of things, or whistling. So very nice option. Well folks, I think that's gonna wrap it up for our quick look today. Before we go, one last thing. These knobs up here that you can slide the full length, there's a slot about here on the track. You can actually take them up and
