    Can you add a bike rack to each side? I would like to add a Yakima frontloader on each side. Thanks

    Just wanted to share a pic of my Mobtown Bars with 1up Bike racks. Got the aluminum bars powder coated black. So far so good

    I was deciding between these Mobtown LowRise vs. KB Voodoo HiRise, but after seeing everyone's pictures I like this over the KB VooDoo as they don't stick out as much on the sides.

    How do the extrusions attach to the bracket? If it's a single screw on each end, how does it keep from turning/spinning? Also, I imagine I would take the crossbars on and off every once in awhile, do you think the extrusion would get stripped over time?

    Thanks!

    The extrusions attach via that outer plate that you see the bolt head attached to. Yes, it's a single bolt on each end. The extrusion sits on the "ledge" between the upright bracket and that outer plate (outlined in red in my pic). I take on/off the crossbars all the time and have had no issues with anything getting stripped or worn. If you take the bracket itself on/off all the time, then those bolts that screw into the bedrails on the truck may eventually wear out on the head of the bolt, but they're easily replaceable.

    Thanks @JKDer, I feel more confident with this now.

    @Mobtown Offroad is it possible to purchase the 4 bed brackets only? I want to buy the black extrusions from 80/20, unless you can source that?

    Thanks.

    Just finished installing and figuring out the spacing! This is the perfect solution for me...a bed cap doesn’t work because I ride motocross/trail bikes and need to be able to throw dirt bikes in the back on a whim.

    Suuuuuper pleased with how it turned out
