Frequently Asked Questions
What is the advantage of 3/4 length over a full-length rack?
The 3/4 length leaves the rear portion of the bed open for taller items — equipment, coolers, bins, or gear that won't fit under a full-length rack. Choose 3/4 if you regularly carry tall cargo; choose a full-length rack if you want maximum overhead coverage for gear that fits under the rack height.
Should I add Packout mount positions?
Packout positions on the rack surface let you lock Milwaukee Packout boxes to the rack top for organized storage. 1–2 Packout positions is the most popular setup for a tool box plus a recovery or first aid storage position.
Can this be combined with the AJK Bed Drawer?
Yes — the headache rack mounts above the bed surface while the Bed Drawer uses the under-bed space. Both can be run simultaneously for maximum Ranger 1500XD storage capacity. Contact the team at Dunes 2 Dezert SXS for configuration guidance.
Is hardware included?
Yes — all mounting hardware for installation is included.
