Best roof rack for an extra cab or space cab ute

Short answer

For an extra cab or space cab ute, pick the Wedgetail Adventure platform made for that cab, listed for the Ranger, D-MAX, BT-50, Triton and HiLux extra cab roofs, and use Oval Steel or a Commercial Max service body platform where Adventure is not listed. An extra cab roof is shorter than a dual cab roof, so the rack must be the extra cab fitment for your model and generation, not a dual cab one. Every pick holds its full rating 100% off-road, static is 3.5 x dynamic, and all are made in Bayswater, Victoria, Australia. Wedgetail Adventure has a warranty of 10 years.

Every extra cab and space cab fitment

The table lists every live Wedgetail rack whose fitment is an extra cab or space cab, grouped by vehicle, with its ranges, ratings and price range from the product data. Click a vehicle for its full model guide.

Extra cab, space cab, King Cab: the same body

Makers use different names for the two door ute with a short rear cabin: Toyota calls it Extra Cab, Isuzu and Holden Space Cab, Ford Super Cab, Mazda Freestyle Cab, Mitsubishi Club Cab and Nissan King Cab. Wedgetail lists all of these as Extra Cab (Space Cab on the F-Series), so search by the Wedgetail name when you look up your ute.

Why an extra cab needs its own rack

The roof over an extra cab is shorter than a dual cab roof and longer than a single cab roof, and Wedgetail lists each rack by make, model, generation and cab. A dual cab rack is a different product, so buy the extra cab fitment for your exact ute. For how platform length follows the cab, see what size platform you need.

Cab roof, canopy or service body

• Cab roof: Wedgetail Adventure or Oval Steel platforms. The load stays within both the rack rating and the vehicle maker's roof limit, whichever is lower.
• ARB canopy: Oval Steel ARB classic combination racks are listed for the Ranger PX and Colorado RG extra cab.
• Caddy Storage service body: Commercial Max platforms for most extra cabs, and the Wedgetail Trade service body combination kit for an extra cab.
• Light, long items only: the Trade Max crossbars for the D-MAX RT extra cab are the Trade Max kit listed for an extra cab. Trade Max crossbar kits do not include a wind deflector.

The ute roof rack buying guide explains when to choose the cab, the canopy or the service body, and the single cab and cab chassis guide covers the shorter cab.

Pick by what you carry

• Touring gear, awning, recovery boards, rooftop tent: Wedgetail Adventure. Platforms are the rooftop tent base; the tent goes against the dynamic rating on the move and the tent plus people against the static rating, which is 3.5 x dynamic.
• Work gear and ladders: a Commercial Max or Wedgetail Trade platform on a Caddy Storage service body, or an Oval Steel ARB combination rack, so long loads run over the tray.
• Boat on the roof: Oval Steel or Commercial Max with the removable boat roller pair. There is no kayak carrier.
• Surfboards: carried on any of the racks.

Questions people ask

Will a dual cab roof rack fit an extra cab?

No. Wedgetail lists each rack by cab, and the extra cab roof is shorter than the dual cab roof, so buy the extra cab fitment for your model and generation. See what size platform you need.

Is there a roof rack for the Mazda BT-50 extra cab?

Yes. The Wedgetail Adventure platform is listed for the BT-50 Gen 3 (2020 on) extra cab, Oval Steel for the UP (2011 to May 2020) extra cab, and Commercial Max service body platforms for both with a Caddy Storage body. Mazda calls it the Freestyle Cab. See the BT-50 guide.

Which roof rack fits a HiLux extra cab?

The Wedgetail Adventure platform, listed for the N70 (2005 to 2015) and N80 (October 2015 to October 2025) extra cab, with Oval Steel platforms for both and a Commercial Max platform for the N80 with a Caddy Storage service body. See the HiLux guide.

Is there a rack for an Isuzu D-MAX space cab?

Yes. Wedgetail lists the D-MAX space cab as Extra Cab: Wedgetail Adventure and Trade Max crossbars for the RT (2020 on), Oval Steel for the RG (2012 to 2020), and Commercial Max service body platforms for both. See the D-MAX guide.

Is there a rack for a Nissan Navara King Cab?

Not in the current product data: every Navara rack listed is for the dual cab. Search your Navara in Find My Vehicle or ask a stockist, and see the Navara guide.

Can I put a rooftop tent or ladders on an extra cab?

Yes, with the right mount. A rooftop tent goes on a platform within its dynamic rating on the move and its static rating (3.5 x dynamic) parked, and within the vehicle's roof limit. Ladders and long work loads are better on a service body or canopy rack; see the ute ladder rack guide.

Where can I get it fitted?

At any of the 134 Wedgetail stockists, which all sell and fit, or at the factory, 7-9 Newcastle Road, Bayswater VIC 3153, Monday to Friday, 8am to 4pm. See where to buy.
