Why ACS ROOF

ACS ROOF brings 10 years of Active Cargo System engineering — and hundreds of thousands of off-road testing miles — to the roof of your Ford Transit 148. It's a modular, no-drill platform rack with infinitely adjustable sliding load bars, built stronger and lighter than typical roof rack systems, and easy enough to assemble yourself.

Every ACS ROOF is over-engineered and over-built in Corona, California, with Grade 10.9 black Zi-Ni fasteners, a dual-stage powder coat finish, and a low 4-inch profile. Removable corner caps make auxiliary lighting installation simple, and an optional OWL SIDE ladder integrates for easy roof access.
