    ATO is back to making Bed Cross Bars for the 05+ Tacoma. These bed cross bars can help you lift items out of the bed of your truck, freeing up much needed space for more camping gear or tools. The bars are available in many different styles, one that sits just slightly above the bed side, one that sits 1.5 inches above the top of the bed side or we can custom build you a cross bar that is 4 inches or more above the bed rail. All cross bars mount to the factory universal mounting rail so NO drilling is required to securely mount your new cross bar.

    Included with each purchase of is one bed cross bar and the required mounting hardware.

    Pricing and order info:
    Flush Cross Bar: $60 each. Cross bar is made with 1.5" x 3/16" Square tube.

    I do not have a specific weight limit for them but yes they are strong enough for a roof top tent.

    The 4"+ rise bars are made from 1.75" DOM round tube. I don't have any photos of those at this time. I've got some photos of the 1.5" rise bars that I'll get uploaded as soon as I can.

    The kit comes with 3/8 grade 5 bolts, washers and square nuts that go in the rail. All you need is a 9/16" wrench to install the cross bars.

    First post updated with more photos.

    Dane, The bars are more than capable of holding a spare tire or roof top tent.

    Not exactly a "set up" yet, but finally the paint dried and installed. Very impressed so far, packing for the beach right now so a little cluttered.
