    I lost track thousands of dollars ago.
    Introducing the BAMF Expo bed bars. With the "Expo" style becoming so popular we decided to come out with the light weight rack system for the Tacoma platform. The basic bed bars are mounted with 8 T slot nuts and button head SS socket head cap screws (included) 3/16th steel mounting plates with a light weight 1.75"x 0.095" wall steel tubing to keep it light yet still be strong enough to hold all your gear. At 10" high off the bed rails your tent will stay down out of the wind as well as lowering your center of gravity. There are tabs welded on the sides (Standard) that you can mount a single rotopax 1 gallon can to all four corners or anything with a 1/2" mounting bolt like a Hi-lift.
    The optional laser cut .100" 5052 aluminium universal mounting plates open up more possibilities and are light weight, Formed with 2 flanges top and bottom for rigidity they are stout. There is mounting holes for Rotopax cans you could mount a hi-lift. You can also add our raised Hi-lift mounts and mount a single 2 gallon Rotopax can under a Hi-lift. With 1/2" holes, long slots & 1/4" mounting holes the possibilities are endless.

    I'm about to order a set with he aluminum plates, what is the total length with the plates installed, and what is the measurement between the rail mounting plates? I have few things on rail that I'll have to rearrange possibly.
    Thanks

    I can mount a 4 gallon rotopax to these correct? I’ve been looking at the pictures and can’t quite tell which bolt holes it would mount to.

    If you are running an RTT it maybe tight. Without i do believe it should fit. I run dual jerry cans on the swing out.
