Sold as a complete bed rack system. Designed specifically around the body lines and proportions of the 4th Gen Toyota Tacoma, while also being compatible with 3rd Gen Tacoma models.
The NYTOP Tacoma Bed Rack combines a low-profile appearance with a modular structure for overlanding, cargo, rooftop tents, and accessory mounting.
The main side bodies and upper side rails are CNC-machined from 6061-T6 aluminum, while the integrated MOLLE panels are constructed from 1/4-inch 5052 aluminum. The rack is supported by heavy-duty 1/4-inch stainless steel structural beams.
The upper platform uses 1 × 2-inch 6063-T5 aluminum T-slot extrusion crossbars, the same extrusion system used on the NYTOP Roof Rack.
The upper rack can be configured in three different ways across two mounting heights, allowing the system to be tailored for maximum cargo capacity, a cab-flush low-profile appearance, or a simplified lightweight setup.
1. Raised / Roof Rack Aligned Configuration
The complete upper rack assembly is mounted above the main stainless steel structure using 1/4-inch stainless steel L-brackets.
This position raises the bed rack platform to more closely align with the height of the NYTOP Roof Rack when equipped, creating a continuous front-to-rear mounting plane for longer cargo and compatible accessories.
This configuration uses the full upper side-rail assembly and all five crossbars.
2. Low-Profile Full Rack Configuration
For the lowest full-rack setup, the upper side rails are installed inverted and tucked into the main bed rack structure, positioning the top of the rack flush with the cab roofline.
In this configuration, the L-brackets are not used. Three crossbars mount directly to the main stainless steel structure using T-slot hardware, while the upper 6061-T6 side rails connect the remaining two crossbars to the three primary structural crossbars.
This retains the full five-crossbar upper platform while keeping the overall rack height flush with the cab.
3. Low-Profile 3-Crossbar Configuration
For the most minimal setup, the upper side rails and two outer crossbars can be omitted entirely.
Three 1 × 2-inch 6063-T5 aluminum T-slot crossbars mount directly to the main stainless steel structure, maintaining the same cab-flush low mounting position while reducing the amount of upper structure.
Optional MOLLE Panel Compatibility
Optional accessory MOLLE panels are sold separately from the integrated side MOLLE panels included with the bed rack.
When the bed rack is installed in the raised configuration, the optional MOLLE panels can be mounted in their standard orientation.
When the bed rack is installed in either low-profile configuration, the reduced clearance does not allow the optional MOLLE panels to be mounted in the same standard position. They may still be mounted longitudinally, depending on the accessory layout and mounting needs.

Load Capacity
Static: 600 lbs.
Dynamic: 300 lbs.
Load ratings are based on the limitations of the OEM bed structure. Cargo weight should be reduced accordingly during off-road, high-impact, or severe driving conditions.
