Introducing the 2010' H1 ladder rack system. This system is a bolt-on system and does not require any drilling. It uses a rubber coated 11 gauge 2x8 clamp that bolts onto the underside of the drip rails. The cross bars are 14 gauge steel rectangular 2" x 1". The mounting bases are 8" wide and 11 gauge galvanized steel. All systems are powder coated in white for superior protection against corrosion and rust. Weight limit is 750lbs.

All vantech 3 bar systems for newer Chevy,Ford & GMC are made 5/8" lower in the middle of the mounting base to compensate the slight curvature of the roof. This allows placing a extension on top and touching all 3 cross bars.
