KB Voodoo Fabrications VRS Overland Bed Rack: Elevate Your Adventure

When it comes to overlanding, having the right gear can make all the difference in your adventure experience. One essential piece of equipment that many off-road enthusiasts overlook is the bed rack. In this blog, we’ll dive into our Voodoo Rail System, the benefits it offers, and the top features these racks possess to elevate your next adventure.

What is the Voodoo Rail System (VRS)?

The Voodoo Rail is the foundation of this system.  Multiple different configurations of the truck bed crossbars and bed rack system can be built from the Voodoo Rail System.  The Voodoo Rail System offers a vast array of mounting points, and it equally distributes the load across the full length of your truck bed sides, eliminating potential deformation of your truck’s bed and side rail caps.

Most importantly, the Voodoo Rail offers tonneau cover compatibility without the need for any special adapters.  

This system is also completely modular. You can start with a simple crossbars system, and upgrade to a full overland bed rack at any time!

Why a KB Voodoo VRS Bed Rack?

  1. Maximized Storage: KB Voodoo VRS Bed racks provide additional space for gear, allowing you to carry more supplies without cluttering your vehicle's interior.  VRS Integrated Storage Options include our VRS Sliding Cargo Tray and VRS Gear Lockers.

  2. Versatility: They are compatible with various accessories, including awnings, lighting options, and recovery gear, making your setup customizable for any trip.

  3. Improved Access: Our VRS Bed Racks allow you to easily access your gear while keeping it secure, especially in rough terrain.

  4. Enhanced Capability: The VRS six leg design provides more than ample weight capacity to hold you roof top tent and all your recover gear.

  5. Durability: Designed for off-road conditions, these racks are built to last, providing a solid foundation for your gear.

Key Features

  • Material: Choose between aluminum (lightweight and corrosion-resistant) and steel (more robust but heavier). Your choice will depend on your needs for strength versus weight. 

  • The Best Powder Coating in the Industry:  Prior to coating, our steel uprights are sandblasted to achieve a surface profile that paint can really stick to. After sandblasting, they are sprayed with a zinc-rich primer, then they are powder coated, and finally they are cured in a 400° oven. The curing process formulates a protective skin and promotes adhesion of the coating.

  • Weight Capacity: 600lbs dynamic and 1,200lbs static weight capacity

  • Mounting Options: We carry a full line of VRS Bed Rack Accessories from additional side panels, bike mounts, tractions board brackets, awning brackets, tool mounts, RotoPax mounts, Hi Lift Jack brackets, and even a propane tank mount.

  • Installation: Easy bolt together assembly and installation to your truck using either t-slot nuts for an existing deck rail or our no drill clips.

The KB Voodoo VRS Overland bed rack system is a game changer for any adventure enthusiast. With the VRS, you can maximize your vehicle's cargo capacity, enhance your camping setup, and ensure that your gear is secure and accessible. Whether you’re a weekend warrior or a full-time overlander, investing in a quality bed rack from KB Voodoo Fabrications will elevate your outdoor experience and help you tackle any terrain with confidence.

Get your rides in before it's too late!

Getting in as many rides as we can before the cold hits. Before we know it, we’ll be swapping the bike mounts out for ski clamps. The good news is our Pro-X crossbars are the perfect building block for any seasonal build.

Right now we’re running the Pro-X crossbars with bike mounts and a ROAM box to get the most out of these last few weeks of biking season. The ROAM box is a great addition to any bed bar build as it can be installed easily to our extruded crossbars and is the perfect location to store muddy gear after a long ride.

The shop Gladiator is quickly becoming one of our favorites. Few vehicles handle off-roading as well as this thing and we’ve been getting the most of it. We’ve added a 1.5” TeraFlex leveling kit for some added clearance and plan to add 2” spacers soon for a more aggressive stance.
