RealTruck Ascend Modular Truck Rack Fits 2015-2026 Ford F150, 2017-2026 F150 Raptor, 2022-2026 F150 Lightning, 5'7" Bed (RTI-RT298503)

The RealTruck® Ascend™ Rack is a versatile, easily configurable mid-height overlanding bed rack engineered with adventure-ready strength—for the road, the trail, and everyday use. Designed as a sturdy, low-profile base for transporting rooftop tents, kayaks, canopies, and overlanding equipment, this mid-height rack helps reduce wind noise compared to a cab-height rack and fits in most garages.

If you’re ready to revolutionize your truck’s capability and transform it into the ultimate adventure vehicle, the RealTruck Ascend Rack is engineered for you. The Ascend Rack offers rock-solid stability with its rigid 14-gauge steel construction and pre-welded fastener reinforcement. Engineered with an impressive 500 lbs. dynamic/1,200 lbs. static weight rating, the Ascend Rack is the ideal platform for mounting rooftop tents, cargo racks, retracting canopies, and campsite lighting with confidence.

No matter the climate, the RealTruck Ascend Rack is built to last. Coated in a durable dual-layer finish—full-coverage E-coat protection and armor-like exterior powder coat—the Ascend delivers long-lasting resistance to rust, wear, and UV damage.

Along both sides of the Ascend Rack, built-in, fully adjustable accessory panels provide configurable, easily accessible mounting locations for traction boards, hi-lift jacks, pioneering tools, and fuel packs, keeping you outfitted, organized, and prepared for every adventure. An integrated high-mount stop light comes pre-installed and ready to wire in, ensuring your rig stays highly visible—even with a fully loaded rack.

Since the fun doesn’t start until you leave the driveway, black-coated fasteners are welded throughout the rack assembly to simplify installation so a single person can accomplish it in under an hour. The RealTruck Ascend Rack is backed by a limited lifetime warranty and supported by dedicated product experts and a customer service team based in the USA.
