Durability & Construction Highlights
The Slimline II Load Bed Rack Kit is crafted from aircraft-grade T6 aluminium, powder-coated in a resilient black finish to withstand harsh Australian conditions, from outback dust to coastal salt air. Its construction includes corrosion-resistant 3CR12 stainless steel fittings to ensure the rack maintains strength and appearance over years of use.
The rack’s cleverly designed T-slot grooves across the tray top and edges fully accommodate standard 8mm bolts, allowing you to securely attach an array of accessories or tie-down points — enhancing your convenience and flexibility on every trip.
Installation & Compatibility
This kit is designed for Nissan Frontier Utes from 1997 to current models, perfectly aligning with the truck bed dimensions for a secure fit. Installation requires some drilling to mount the universal load bed legs onto the supplied tracks, but Front Runner includes comprehensive instructions to simplify the process.
Once installed, the rack’s height is approximately the sum of the Slimline II tray thickness (50mm) and the height of the legs, offering clearance and a smart profile that won’t interfere with your vehicle’s aerodynamics or rain gutters.
