Backwoods Adventure Mods Ford Transit (2015+) DRIFTR Roof Rack

Ford Transit (2015+) DRIFTR Roof Rack

Introducing our DRIFTR series roof racks for the Ford Transit. Our new rack is modular, light weight, compatible with our ladder, have a low profile, install quickly, allow easy customization, and ship cheap directly to your door. For the 2015+ Transit, we have a mid roof version with ladder and a high roof version with ladder available. Please make your selection based on your vans height.

Our DRIFTR rack is super user friendly and gives you great flexibility for mounting solar, cargo boxes, or any other type of gear you want by using our triple T slotted aluminum extrusions. Just like mostly all of our products, the DRIFTR racks are all made out of aluminum and come powder coated in our black semi textured finish.

Storage for All Your Gear

Your Ford Transit is home when you’re on the road and that means you’re bringing along a lot of gear. The longer the adventure, the more plentiful and complex your gear requirements become. One thing’s for certain – even though your Transit is large and roomy, you still need more storage. If you’re on the lookout for effective storage that keeps all your stuff clean, dry, secure, and accessible but doesn’t add bulk or unnecessary weight that hampers your fuel economy and overall vehicle performance, then the Ford Transit DRIFTR roof rack is for you.

The Backwoods Adventure Mods DRIFTR Roof Rack offers you a secure, lightweight place to mount solar panels, cargo boxes, or any other gear you need or want to bring along. The rack plus our easy-to-use triple T-slotted extrusions make customizing your rack a snap so you can get exactly the storage you need.
