Question:
Are there any side racks like this that will fit into the stake pockets of the bed? I am looking for a solution to carrying a canoe but I also have a hard top folding tonneau cover that I want to leave in place.

The Thule TracRac Contractor Truck Bed Ladder Rack - Side Mount - Steel - 250 lbs # TH14750 gets the support it needs from the floor which is why there isn't a similar rack compatible with stake pocket use. You can get a full ladder rack that will use the stake pocket and utilize the full side to side bracing for support like the Adarac # A70450. IF you let me know your specific vehicle, I can give you a compatible rack option. To not interfere with a folding cover you would need to use the Adarac Pro like # A4000964 with the straight supports versus the angled supports. They are vehicle specific, so I would need to know your specific truck year/make/model and bed size to confirm a fit.

For your 2019 Ford F-350 dually with 8 foot bed, the tonneau cover # BAK48331 is the MX4 you have. I recommend the Adarac Pro Series Custom Truck Bed Ladder Rack - Aluminum - 500 lbs # A4000958 which is a great fit for your truck and tonneau cover.
