Installing the RealTruck Elevate FS Rack ​

Finally starting to use some of the additional functionality of the X4TS t-slot rails with adding the RealTruck Elevate FS rack. This rack slides into the slots so its a very easy install and super functional once installed.

Assembly and install only requires a couple of tools so I was able to knock this out at our summer home which was a huge bonus because I needed the rack to bring my kayak home for some TLC, had a little run in with some rocks...
The rack can handle a ton of weight (750lbs when parked, 500 lbs on the road, and 250 lbs offroad) , works with a tonneau cover without any modifications, and looks great!

Great video as always. Thanks.

[@WaterFowler41]

Thanks again!

Great vid. Just purchased the same setup for my lightning f-150. Pricing/practicality just makes sense vs the Kuat and Yakima competition on a cover / adjustable rack setup. I do wish they would have hidden the hardware a little better, and made it theft resistant. But it looks beefy!

[@WaterFowler41]

Couldn't agree more!

[@devingard1438]

Great install/ overview video… I’ve been debating of getting this setup on my Raptor as well! Answered a lot of my Qs I had on its ease of on/ off and capabilities!
Great videos on the Raptor platform, keep them coming!

Thanks!

Enjoyed the video. I am looking for a similar set up. I really like the X4ts cover instead of having a canister in the bed. I'm between the FS rack or Yakima overhaul HD system, any reason you didn't go yakima?

[@WaterFowler41]

I don’t know if the Yakima fits the x4ts rack slots. Assuming it does, price wise the FS is a way better deal than the Yakima.

[@ianpaddick2003]

How quickly can you remove it? I don’t plan on running it all the time, just when camping and I need the kit my kayaks on it.

[@WaterFowler41]

Takes me less than 5 minutes to pull the rack off

[@ericmackay2514]

Is there a weight capacity on the t rails of the tonneau cover? It seems like they sit on the edge of the bed rail.

[@WaterFowler41]

They sit on top of the bed rail not on the edge

@@WaterFowler41 thanks!

@johnli4572 I’m not sure as I’m not familiar with how the Shiprock mounts so you’ll have to do some digging
