    I did search. And I didn't find a lot.

    Is SOS Concepts the only ones producing a bed rack to accommodate a Bestop? Anyone that has one personally and can post pics?

    Thanks!

    Hey,
    If youre talking about a bed rack that goes outside and over the top I think Jerry at BAMF makes some. Might trying going to his page. If not you could talk to Eric at Relentless Fabrication as he's always doing racks and allows customizing. Hope this helps.

    Appreciate the input. Yeah, looking for a rack that would go OVER a Bestop / Softopper. I'm looking into a roof top tent and already have the Bestop as a topper and don't want to go with a hard one.

    Thanks.

    Talk to Tracy at All Pro. They make a weld it yourself kit designed to go over the softopper for around $500 if I remember correctly, but it isn't listed on their website. I'm getting one this winter.

    I emailed AllPro to see. I'm just not a huge fan of the SOS Concepts one. A RTT will already be pretty high, and they add like an extra six inches above the Bestop.

    wow. I was about to pull the trigger on an aluminium one from SOS. I didn't realize they set so high. His web site says 2.5 inches above the cab level. I would be very interested in what you find out from AllPro if you don't mind sharing.

    From AllPro. Tested only on Softopper. Didn't get a price, but 1000# weight capacity.

    Does anyone have the AllPro one with a Bestop??

    I wonder how much $$ to get this fabricated locally. I like the height of the AllPro, but the platform of SOS seems more functional.

    What differences are there when it comes to functionality?

    Subbed. I'm also looking into what bed rack options there are for the Bestop. From what I've seen SOS is the only one marketing them. I like that modified rack that Allpro makes and $500 isn't too bad for a weld-it yourself kit.

    Look at top of both racks. Allpro has just one cross member. I could mount more stuff more easily with more cross members like SOS Concepts. Like a Roadshower, etc. That's just my observation.
    I feel like more top bars would help distribute weight better and maybe hold more. Meh

    Look again. Allpro has one on each side of the rack, you just can't see both in one picture because of the height/angle
