DiamondBack + bed rack

Have any of you used this Chassis Unlimited Thorax bed rack or something similar for DiamondBacks? Haven’t seen too many posts regarding keeping your DiamondBack on whilst utilizing similar styled bed racks.

Would love to get some input on how y'all have liked or disliked them.

I bought a diamondback as the 1st bed cover I ever got. Had the front one with longer strut (and disabled safety) to prop it 90 degrees. They are nice, but I can’t imagine using a rack on top.
I’ve had a rack as well, it’s an old victory 4x4 rack, it fit a certain roll up tonneau. Eventually. I set that rack up with a sliding tray that was just over bed height.
Then I pulled it all off, replaced with a hard roll up tonneau, lost like 200# (much more with the Wilco trailgate).
I’m also on the shorter side.
It seems like the rack on Diamondback defeats its functionality.

 

For the one I linked, apparently you’re still able to open one side of the DiamondBack at a time. Obviously not when a RTT is on.

 

I think that would defeat the prime feature of a DBack - the ability to pile stuff on top.

 

I have the Bin 8 in the front of my DB, which I access all the time for tools, etc. I went with the Front Runner racks, which mount on the back and the center. That way, even with my RTT on, I can still open the front to get to my Bin 8. Yes, not as easy to mount stuff on the Front Runners verses racks. Just mentioning!

 

I’ve got the same bin as well. Good to know there are options. Appreciate the insight!
