Deplorable
One that works with the Rambox. Probably working on it
God yes, put me on that list. Can't find decent rack for our Powerwagon with Ramboxs but AEV's one off looks perfect. Publish some specs or something. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
To each there own. I built mine. I bought a welder,steel and chop saw for way less than you could buy one. I needed a way to hual kayaks over the bed. Most of the racks I saw were way over priced and I would still have to modify them to work for me. It's not the prettiest design but it functions well.

Exactly what i want!
I built a simple rack for my Ram box Power wagon to mount a RTT at cab height. I'missed surprised no one is building something like this for the Ram Boxes.To each there own. I built mine.

Beautiful rack! I've been trying to build the same style for my 2012 Power Wagon since it also has the Ram Boxes. Do you have any pointers or more photos? I'd love to hear what you came up with. Kalispell here. Thanks.
I started by cutting out the feet from 1/4 inch plate to match the top corners of the box. I wanted to spread the load out over as big of an area as possible. I cut out pads to sit between the rack and plastic clad bed corners out of high density foam rubber sourced from a couple hardware store kneeling pads for gardening. It's secured with 4 heavy duty ratchet straps criss crossed to the tie down points in the bed. The rest is just 2"x2"x.125" tube frame work with a couple 1.5"x1.5"×.125" cross member tubes to secure the tent to.

saw the Leitner setup when I was at OK last time and looked pretty solid.
if I get a truck at some point I'd definitely add it to the top of my contender list. aluminum construction & interchangeable accessories are a big plus.
OutdoorX4 did a story on the rack which might give you some more info.

I like that design! I agree with you, it seems like there is a lack of support for the Ram Series.

I'm in the middle of a rack for my '15 ccsb as well, still in the design process. RTT will be ordered this friday, construction starts sometime next week.
