342 Cap Rack for aluminum Canopies

We install lots of custom truck and van racks. Typically most canopies are made of fiberglass but sometimes there are specialty aluminum skinned canopies which are far to flexible to support any weight.

The solution was to use the canopies frame which supports the skin. This greatly improved the strength of the mounts and made for a clean, super functional truck rack.

Installs like this is what sets Rack Attack apart from other rack stores. We specialize in custom one off installations for your unique needs.

Most passenger cars will need something like the Thule CS-10.
