    Here's a great little bracket for you guys! This bracket comes with all of the parts you need to bolt it to the universal mounting rail in the bed of your Tacoma. It can be used for holding CB antennas, flags, lights or whatever else you may have. There is a bolt built in to provide a place to connect grounding wires as well.

    The kit comes with the laser cut CNC formed bracket, mounting bolts and nuts for the rail, and grounding bolt. Mounts are a $20.35 each with free shipping to all 50 US states, Puerto Rico and Guam. Save 13% when you order 2 to 4 mounts or 20% when you order 4 or more! Mounts can be ordered online here, or by contacting Armor Tech Offroad.

    Over the top brackets are now in stock and ready to go! These are perfect for the guy wanting to mount a light or CB antenna on their bed rail but also not loose any room to have large items against the walls of the bed. The bracket sits 1.5" above the side of the rail for antenna wiring to clear. Over The Top brackets are $25.35 for one or $22.85 for 2 or more, including free shipping to the USA.

    Coming soon will be the Over The Top Option! Don't want your lights sticking into the bed, or want them up a little higher? The Over The Top bracket is tall enough to reach over the top of the bed rail, keeping your bed area clear for more storage! Over The Top brackets will be available soon and will be $25.35 with free shipping to the US, Puerto Rico and Guam.

    what kind of weight can these hold. I am looking into a way to make a kayak rack/ladder rack for my DCSB prerunner. I want it removable and would probably use something like this to bolt the rack to the bed rails

    I have a couple of these and they are really strong. I would say the bed rail system would fail way before these brackets.

    The question isn't how much can the bracket hold, but how much can the bed rail mounting system hold. I would not recommend using these as a weight bearing mount for anything like a kayak or bike rack. We're working on bed rail cross bars that will sit on top of the bed rail and be held in place by the mounting rail. That is really what you are looking for. We're about 3 weeks out from getting those parts in from the laser shop. If you are interested send me a PM or email.

    The 1/4 inch bolt in the middle is a courtesy bolt that can be used as a ground terminal connection. With the bed being plastic you have to run ground wires to everything so we added the extra point to make that easier and cleaner.
