    Never heard of those, but that's kinda cool. I wouldn't mind a set if they weren't so damn pricey.
    Be perfect for putting my kayak in and not having it lay completely flat.

    Exactly. From a price perspective I did see they ran a 25% off discount during xmas last year. Hoping they may do the same for Father's Day...sent them an email asking and to drop the hint to do so. No response yet

    I have had these from the start of when they were released. They have been a awesome choice in my opinion. They work perfect when hauling the dirt bikes and with 2x4 or plywood etc. Super easy to use and great construction.

    Any questions let me know

    Nice, but why not something way less expensive?

    What happens when you hit a bump...does tailgate rattle?

    I do not notice anything. It shouldn't as you would probably either have some weight on it or pushing against something

    Last questions...do they rattle with tailgate closed? Need to drill holes?

    These probably have the added benefit of reducing tailgate theft chance. Nothings full proof, but having to deal with these would make most move on to the next.
