Question:
I have a 2020 F150 with the 5.5 ft bed. I’ve also installed a BackFlip MX4 hard cover. Now I want to install a rack to carry two kayaks. What’s my options? This is cut and paste for a 2018. I want to do the same thing for my 2020 but the web site says it wont fit. Is there any rack that will fit?

We have an Adarac Pro Series for your 2020 Ford F-150!
The part number that you referenced, # A4000955, does not fit your truck because this is the model that is specifically built for 6-3/4 foot beds, while yours is a 5-1/2 foot bed.
The model for your truck is # A4000964. It's the Pro Series and features everything the other model does with the exception that it is shorter (being built for shorter beds). It will work with most inside-rail tonneau covers like the BackFlip MX4, part # BAK48329. I've linked to a video review of this ladder rack for you to look at.
If you're wanting to carry kayaks on this rack, some people use the Adarac Tie-Down Straps, part # A4000882. However, I recommend a dedicated kayak carrier like the Swagman Coronado Rooftop Kayak Carrier, part # S65149. This will give your kayaks some extra protection and will work with your Adarac Ladder Rack. I've linked to a video review of this carrier for your consideration.
