Full-Height Alignment. 100,000+ Miles of Testing. 1000lb Static Load Capacity.
The Bed Rack, Elevated.The Sherpa Rack-Height PAK System is the definitive solution for Jeep Gladiator owners who demand a seamless, full-height mounting surface. After four years and over 100,000 miles of brutal testing, Sherpa has engineered a rack that balances unmatched adaptability with a lightweight, rust-proof aluminum construction.
Manufactured in Colorado using precision laser-cut 1/4" aluminum, this system is designed to "carry the burden" just like the Sherpas of Nepal. Whether you're mounting a massive rooftop tent or outfitting for a cross-country expedition, this rack provides the stout mounting structure you need to Adventure with Confidence.
Why PAK Rack?The Pain: Traditional steel racks are heavy, prone to rust, and often sit at heights that don't align with your cab rack, making long loads impossible to carry level.
The PAK Solution: A Rack-Height design that matches perfectly with Sherpa Cab Racks, uses 100% corrosion-resistant aluminum, and weighs only ~65 lbs while supporting half a ton.
Key Features: The Full-Height PAK System
Designed to sit flush with Sherpa Cab Racks, creating a continuous, level mounting surface from the windshield to the tailgate.
Features the integrated Peak Series rack system, allowing for complete compatibility with Sherpa's most advanced accessories.
The dual-height main supports allow for elevated tent mounting, ensuring your gear is positioned exactly where you need it.
Crafted from 1/4" precision-cut aluminum with CNC accuracy. Stout enough for any trail, light enough to maintain performance.
Includes (5) 48" adjustable extrusion crossbars, providing maximum surface area for securing various gear and platforms.
Every system is secured with stainless steel hardware and nylock nuts, preventing loosening from vibrations on washboard roads.
With slots and holes integrated throughout the towers and sideplates, you can mount fuel cans, shovels, or recovery boards anywhere.
Backing our strength—if you get a little "too western" and the rack fails, we’ve got you covered for life.
Tested Through 100,000 MilesWe didn't just build a rack; we built a legacy. The PAK System was forged through four years of testing in the most unforgiving environments. At only ~65 lbs, this rack provides an industry-leading strength-to-weight ratio that heavy steel racks simply cannot match.

"I've gone through three different racks on my Gladiator, and this is the last one I'll ever buy. The full-height design aligns perfectly with my cab rack, making it easy to carry my 12ft kayak level. It's incredibly light for how strong it is, and the fact that it's aluminum means I never have to worry about rust bubbles after a winter in the salt."

Yes. This "Rack-Height" version is specifically engineered to sit at the same height as our cab racks, allowing you to carry long items like kayaks, ladders, or lumber across the entire length of the vehicle securely.
The Sherpa PAK System has a dynamic load rating of 400 lbs (while driving) and a static load rating of 1000 lbs (while parked), making it more than capable of supporting heavy rooftop tents and multiple occupants.
Absolutely. We use 1/4" thick aluminum and high-quality nylock nuts that resist backing off due to vibration. We’ve tested this setup for over 100,000 miles on washboard roads to ensure zero structural failures.
The system includes all required bed mounting brackets designed specifically for the Jeep Gladiator JT bed rails. Installation is bolt-on and does not require permanent modification to your vehicle's bed.

Prop 65 Warning- Product may contain chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. For more information, go to www.P65Warnings.ca.gov
Proposition 65 is a California law passed in 1986. Its goals are to protect drinking water sources from toxic substances that may cause cancer and birth defects and to reduce or eliminate exposures to those chemicals generally, for example in consumer products, by requiring warnings in advance of those exposures.
The regulation requires the State of California to revise and republish yearly a list of chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer or birth defects or other reproductive harm. The current list contains over 900 naturally occurring and synthetic chemicals. This regulation also requires manufacturers to place warnings on products that contain any of the chemicals listed by the State of California. No other states require warnings of this nature, and products with Prop 65 warning language are legal to sell in all states. Detailed information regarding requirements for compliance to the California Prop. 65 is can be found at: www.P65Warning.ca.gov

The wait time was more than I anticipated even after seeing the notification of long lead times. I have to give them props for giving some compensation for the excessive wait time. Having slightly larger holes would help with fitment. Had a hard time getting the front drivers side away from the pinch weld. Eventually had to use washers to add space away from the truck. Need to update pictures and instalation video for the new sliders they are now making
All packing and shipment were great, everything was there. I had to contract out the install because of arthritis, it took them two hours and looks perfect. Zero wind noise at any speed 0 to 100.
Absolutely love my new rack and roam cases. Appreciate the Sherpa crew as well for their hospitality while the installation was taking place.
Fit and finish is excellent. Looks great on the Bronco. No whistling noise at all, some additional wind noise over 60mph but not much different than it was without the rack. Assembly was not too difficult. Instructions and videos could be a little better.
The quality and dedication of the team at Sherpa is evident from the very first interaction with them, and is further proven in the product itself. This rack is well engineered, easy to assemble, easy to adjust, and holds up incredibly well with no loosening or rattling or shifting (even after over 200 miles of driving on poorly maintained roads). Currently operating with approximately 180 pounds of gear mounted on the bed rack and no issues at all so far. I expected the vibration to work the bolts loose over time, but every time I check they're all still snug. My only regret is that I didn't pull the trigger and get this rack sooner.
First of all, the team at Sherpa is full of passion for adventure and that passion shows in the quality of their products. This roof rack looks incredible and surprised me with it's sturdiness. No loosening of hardware, even after weeks of driving. Currently holding approximately 80 pounds of gear for everyday driving, plus an additional 110 strapped on top during a camping trip (and I even stood on top of the entire loadout). No warping, bending, twisting, or slipping. The fact that this matches the bed rack perfectly in height is the icing on the cake. Easily serves as a tie off for a tarp, rain fly, hammock, or whatever you need. Perfect for modular campsite setup and quick teardown.
I bought the Sherpa Crestone rack for my 2024 4Runner TRD Pro. Incredibly well-made and excellent design. Spend the extra , to get best roof rack in the market. You won’t regret it.
This is our first roof rack that we are going to use to put a RRT (roof top tent) on for back country trips. Well-built product that came with all the nuts, bolts and washers to complete the installation. Took about 1-1/2 to 2 hours install the rack. You will another person to help place the racks on top of the Jeep for final install. Overall, a great, well-built American product
Install was super easy. The quality was great. Customer service was quick to respond to any issues! I’ve already been getting compliments on it and what brand it is. This will be great for camping this year!
This is on my tundra absolutely solid rack looks fantastic extremely modular, which is why I went this route. I can use the whole rack when traveling and over landing then rock the chase rack only when the rest is not in use, I actually use the recovery traction board mounts for my shower room set up, which works amazingly just relocated the board somewhere shown in picture keep innovating TUWAand I’ll keep purchasing.
Good looking cat shields made of stainless steel with cooling holes. Priced well, easy install, no issues. Would buy again.
Great service from their staff. Robert help me through all the process with a request I had, he responded all emails in a timely manner and provided great help.
We received it within 3 days and installed the same day. Great awning and very well made.
the tent is very nice, comfortable and roomy.
Following the instructions was fairly easy. Its better to have second person to set it up. I really like the tent and the support that from ExtrailAuto. Really recommeded! Thanks
