Customer Reviews for VEVOR Truck Rack Pick up Truck Ladder 71"x31" Size 800 lbs Capacity for Kayak

It was cheaper then the box stores and hf. It showed up fast and in good condition. Went right on my 05 f150 and does the job I beat the crap out of it and it takes the abuse no problem

Easy to install.

Works well with a canoe.

The unit seems like it will be suitable for kayak transportation. The assembly directions need improvement. A couple simple additions would help; 1. Note that the top slot of the horizontal crossbar has scalloped out (wider) areas to allow the button head screw to be recessed. 2. After assembling the horizontal crossbar, turn it upside down and allow gravity to help you insert the button head screws. Assemble the verticals to the horizontals, keeping the screws loose enough to allow the vertical supporting posts to slide while you adjust it for the width of your truck. 3. I used blue (removable) loctite to ensure the screws don't come loose from vibration. Finally, it helps to have a longer allen wrench than the one furnished- it gets your hand further away from the angled member while tightening screws. Use anything that fits to line up the hole the holes while you insert the first screw. (My Dodge had about 5-3/4\" protruding outboard of the verticals). Hopefully, these 2 pieces of advice will save you some time and trouble.

Sólo que los cabezales los pierde

The unit is well-built: strong and looks cool. But, there are issues: 1. Be patient while assembling- consider sequencing and how you want your parts oriented. 2. Rivet the end caps on from underneath if you want to keep them. 3. Drill weep holes in the plates underneath the uprights so they don’t fill with water. 4. Purchase stainless steel bolts for the clamps- all the other fasteners are SS and I don’t know why they cheaped-out here. Lastly, think about how easy it would be for a thief to remove them from your vehicle and have a plan. All-said, I am happy with my purchase!

The rack was packed well and had all parts sort of. One section of tubing was mis-manufactured. It is one of the lower sections of the upright. The one with two nuts welded on it. The nuts were welded on the wrong holes. I was able to assemble and instal, but on others trucks it could cause the length not be adjusted correctly. This is just a case of sloppy manufacturing and poor QC. Don’t get me wrong the unit is functional and strong. Just not as advertised due to the defect of on section. I didn’t try to get a replacement price or unit as I am under a time restraint to put the unit in service, and it was usable as is just not as pictured.

It appears to be made very well I've been very happy with the product I believe it will suit my purpose very well

Bought it in September 2023. Just (12/2023) noticed that support columns split. Was caring at most a 22ft ladder and half a dozen of 5 x 12 PVC boards.

Universal hook up makes install easy. Very solid. Does the job! Adjustable load brackets are easy to work with and come in handy. I've loaded 200 lbs and rack handled it easy. It's rated to 800 lbs which is more than I'll ever need.
