Aftermarket Bed/roof rack system

So I pulled the trigger, I went with zroadz overlanding rack!

I really wanted this setup since it’s pretty unique with side rails that can lift upwards, so that, I can reach for gear closer to the cab, instead of trying to grab from the back of the bed.
I also wanted this rack because of the 800 lb. max load weight onroad, and 400 lb. max load weight offroad.
So far This is a great design, built with high quality material and workmanship. The rack also came with 4 pod lights, I’m still in the process of running the wiring to power.
I did have a few issues, since this rack is fairly new to the ranger! The instructions were incomplete, and I was missing some hardware (4 hex-nuts, washers and a 7/32 hex tool). Those were the few setbacks, I called the company and they quickly responded with a resolution.
It did take me longer to unbox and unwrap the individual pieces (2hrs) rather than for me to assemble it (1.5hrs).
Having a helping hand, makes the install easier, this unit is about 125-150 lbs.
I’ll have more reviews as I continue to utilize the rack.

Really like this rack. I think I can make a few small modifications and make this work with a X4S. Thanks for the detailed photos.

Has anyone run with this rack: https://www.carid.com/chassis-unlim...ed-rack-system-4160193781.html?vehicle=181891

I'm still waiting for my Ranger so I've been trying to find an offroad bedrack for an RTT and to hold other gear. I know that I definitely want a lower profile so the RTT sits level with the cab or just a bit higher. I'm also trying to not break the bank...
