Ford Transit 148″ Mid Roof Rack
Turn the Transit roof into usable space.
This aluminum roof rack fits the Ford Transit 148-inch wheelbase with a medium roof. Adjustable crossbars support solar planning and cargo placement, so the layout can evolve with each trip.
Vehicle-specific fit
Built for the Transit roofline.
Vehicle-specific feet align with the Transit factory mounting locations for a precise fit. The rack follows the roofline closely and preserves useful platform space.
- Fits 2015 to 2025 Ford Transit 150, 250 and 350
- Fits 2023 to 2024 Transit Trail with the same roof configuration
Confirm the model year, 148-inch wheelbase and medium roof before ordering. Choose the matching rack version for every other Transit body configuration.
Modular cargo layout
Configure the roof for each trip.
Crossbars can move as the equipment plan changes. The platform accommodates a roof vent and solar panels, with open space available for camp cargo or work gear.
- Crossbar spacing adjusts around the roof layout
- Flush channels support accessory positioning
Solar-ready flexibility
Plan solar power alongside cargo.
The platform lets framed solar panels follow the available roof space around a vent or fan. Common 100W and 200W layouts can share the rack with the equipment used at camp.
- Planning guide: panels up to 58 × 27 inches each
- Crossbars position around panel mounting points
Solar equipment and accessory hardware are purchased separately. Confirm panel dimensions, roof clearance and attachment requirements before installation.
Airflow management
Shape airflow from the front edge.
The front fairing guides air over the rack and helps manage wind sound. Its angled form gives the roof system a finished profile.
- Full-width front wind fairing
- Powder-coated aluminum side rails
Wind sound changes with speed and crossbar position. Accessory placement and weather also influence the result.
Factory-point installation
Use the Transit factory mounting points.
The feet align with the mounting locations built into the roof. Stainless steel hardware supports the connection, while rubber gaskets and sealing washers protect each attachment point.
- Vehicle-specific mounting feet
- Stainless steel fasteners with sealing hardware
