Default Boxlink bike rack

I have developed a bike rack system for the Boxlink setup in the 2015 F-150's. This rack system allows you to put 4 bikes (staggered) in your short bed truck with the tailgate closed. You can also use this system with nearly every hard or soft folding tonneau cover. The included pictures show a steel bar with welded caps, however I have since started using aluminum bars with plastic caps, which are lighter weight, and do not rust. These bars are also professionally powder coated a textured flat black.

I can sell this system for $120 shipped to the main 48 states for each side. This would include two Kuat quick release fork mounts per side already installed and all the hardware needed to install directly to your Boxlink without drilling.

I can sell the system without the Kuat fork mounts for $100 shipped, allowing you to use your preferred fork mount system. This aluminium drills fairly easy with an average drill and you can place them how you like.

There are no comparable bike rack systems that will fit 4 bikes with the tailgate closed, and a 4 bike hitch receiver system would cost you $250-500.

Every new F150 should come with the basic Boxlink setup. You will get the bar with two Kuat dirtbag fork mounts, and all hardware needed to bolt the bar to the Boxlink accessory. If you get a left and right bar, you can stagger the bikes and fit 4 bikes. As for the price I really can't do any cheaper when you are including the materials, powder coat, hardware, custom shipping boxes, and shipping all included.

To install this you have 4 holes in your factory included Boxlink brackets, and 4 bolts included in this package. Tighten the 4 bolts and you're ready to go.
