    I used the eBay 20% off coupon and bought the OEM roof rack for my Tacoma. I’m looking for ideas on how to mount 2 road bikes on it. Anyone have pics of a similar setup? Thanks.

    I bought a Yakima bike rack that was meant to attach to a roof rack but use it on my bed bars instead.

    Try the Yakima site.....'configure' what you need - they ask what you have (vehicle with OEM roof rack) and what you want to carry (bikes)and how you want to carry it (roof rack).

    I'd that the Front Loader or High Road? I believe that is the universal one that does fit in our crossbars

    I can't recall the model, maybe it is a Frontloader, it can attach to all types of bars.

    Any chance you can find out if that fits the OEM Roof Rack on either yours or anyone local?

    I don't have a roof rack, fabbed up some bed bars to mount it on. Here is what the mounts look like so you can see it mounts to several types of bars.
