Bed rail bar/light bar group buy.

X2

 

They come in blue, but sanding them down to get them black is no problem. The 36" bed light bar in black is $70. I offered another TW member the option of having them Line-X'd for an additional $10 if you're interested. Let me know. I'd be happy to do what ever you want. Feel free to PM me too if you'd like. Thanks for the interest guys. BTW, the price includes shipping. Its no extra for that. If you didn't get the chance to check out page 1, please do so. Lots of info.

 

I'm in Guam - I can get an APO address - let me know the price?
54" with 2 extra L's and hardware (Black)

 

I can't ship to APO addresses. On that note, I don't have an 54' bed light bars left. Only the 36' bed light bars in Blue or Black are available.

 

Iaryks - Got your PM for 4 "L" brackets. I'll update the first page and PM you the tracking number by EOD on Tues. Thank you.

 

I've taken the liberty and added pictures of other members bed light bars on page 1 post #2 for your viewing pleasure. I'd figure this would allow you to see what others are using them for.

 

For sale: “Bed Rail Bars/Light Bars.”​

This bolt on application will fit any 2nd generation Tacoma with the standard track system each truck comes equipped with. This group buy will only be available for 30 days from the date posted or until entire stock has been depleted. Only a limited number of "Bed Rail Bars" are available.

So why this design…
I didn’t want to lose any bed space or use any cleats to attach a light bar. This design would allow you to slide your cargo against the back wall. The “L” brackets are high enough that you can still use your cleats under the bed rail bar OR you can turn the “L” brackets around and give yourself additional space should your off-road light(s) or bed light(s) be a little larger than normal.
Advantage: You can attach a CB antenna and still have the wire from the stud run under the bar with no interference.
Disadvantage: Your cargo may not be flush against the back wall.

ABOUT THE PARTS
“L” BRACKET
Made with cut corners on the bottom side and a square top.


BAR
Be advised that each bar has five holes available on each end for mounting purposes. You can completely customize this bar by drilling additional holes in the middle and anywhere in between.


PRODUCTS USED
If you want them in black, I will need to sand down, spray paint in black and then finish it off with a rubberized spray. These will be the products I'm using in the event you need to touch up.


My Two Cents...
I personally would go with the blue and try to customize it to your color truck. For example, I would still paint the "L" brackets black and then color match the bar to the color of your truck as an added flare or personal touch. None of the lights pictured are included with the bed rail bar.

I really hope to earn your business. I've tried to include all the information possible as I do NOT want to edit this post.
Thank you!

SALE​

So after doing some additional research on these bars, I'm not going to pursue this avenue as a business opportunity. Frankly, it's too expensive for starting up and I don't anticipate selling enough to keep it afloat. I want to go through the stock I have on hand now. In order to do this, I need to have a "Sale." So here it is...

BUY ONE FOR $50 - $5 OFF.
Applies to the 36 Blue Bed Light Bar.
I need to move what I've got TW. PM me and let me know that you want one.

BUY 2, GET THE 3RD HALF OFF.
Shipping of all 3 must be to one destination. This applies to the 36" Blue only
Payment for three will be done in one transaction.
Either convince 2 of your friends to get one at the price of $55 each and you only pay $27.50
OR each of you pay $45.83/$45.83/$45.84 to equal $137.50 for all 3 instead of $165. That's a savings of $27.50.

BUY 4 AND SAVE $15 ON EACH ONE
Shipping of all 4 must be to one destination. This applies to the 36" Blue only
This makes each light bar $40. Payment for all 4 must be in one transaction. This is a savings of $60 for 4.

The "L" brackets are not on sale.
I don't know what the demand will be with this sale. It will be on a first come, first serve basis. I still have 30 of the 36" Light bars left. If you are looking to get them in black, may I please offer the suggestion of sanding them down yourself and then either having them powder coated in black or having them Line-X'd/Rhino lined. I had this done on mine and the finish is much nicer. Easy to touch up as well. If you have any questions, please feel free to PM me. If you've been on the fence for a while about ordering, well now you have an incentive to get one along with someone else. Perhaps someone should start a new thread about buying some Light Bars based upon your living area or just say that you're interested so others can see.

Installation & Instructions​

First off, thank you for your purchase. All your packages will be arriving in a FedEx Express Tube Package (doesn't mean it's coming Express). For those of you ordering the 36BLUE or 36BLACK, they will arrived to you assembled. Should you be one of the few ordering the 54BLUE or 54BLACK, one bracket will be attached to one bar and the other bar will have two brackets attached. I've done this to avoid ruining the finish of either the powder coated blue or rubberized black.

Remove the black cap at the end of your bed rail bar.

remove the bolts from the L brackets and slide those bolts with the washer into the bed rail system. The only thing exposed should only be the bolt.

Align the bolts through the holes of the bracket and tighten to your desired location. It's my opinion, but avoid the sections of the bed rail system that have the slots for the cleats. The purpose it allow the use of the cleats while still using the bed rail/light bar.

Here are the tools that you'll need. Grab a flat screwdriver and a 9/16 socket wrench.

Using the screwdriver, place it behind the bolt in order to prevent it from spinning while simultaneously tightening the nut.
*Please note that the black bars will have an extra washer that needs to be placed between the nut and the bracket. This is done to protect the finish and not expose any blue behind the black.

Finished look with the "L" bracket installed. Do this as many times as you have "L" brackets, but before you tighten make sure your holes from the bars on top are aligned to your desired location.

BUMP!
Go to #422 for the latest information.

 

Need a Christmas gift to yourself?
BUMP!

 

Super confusing how many of each you have left. Doesn't matter tho, i'm a first gen, i dont have that nifty rail to plug into :/

 

There was a picture of this item on a first gen. Did you notice?
36" bed light bar in blue, black or even a Line-X'd one are all available.

 

Here it is for you 1st gens out there...

 

Here it is TW...
I have one 54" Bed Light Bar available.
This bar was once on my truck. I swapped it out for the 36" bed light bar instead.
The 54" Bed Light Bar is considered used but I am still going to sell it for $105. The two top bars are Line-X'd. I sprayed them again to touch-up and then used Rust-Oleum Crystal Clear Enamel for the perfect glossy & protective finish.
Here is a picture of the difference as far as the black and the Line-x'd version. BTW, the other one is a 36" Bed Light Bar also available for $70. There were many people interested in the 54" Bed Light Bar. I would suspect that this one will go quick. I won't decline a higher offer since I only have one available and it's already Line-X'd. Remember, only the two top bars are done that way. The L brackets are still sanded down to the metal finish and then sprayed black. A rubberized finish is sprayed over that. To top it off, I'm using the clear enamel as well. Three coats with the black. Otherwise, If you're still looking to do it yourself, the 36" Bed Light Bar in blue is still available for $50. Remember, all the prices on page 1 include shipping to the lower 48 states. You can't beat that. Thanks TW.

 

^^^ BUMP for the above post! ^^^

 

One 54" Black Line-X'd bed light bar up for grabs... check out post #429 for details. It's selling for $105. PM me if you're interested.

 

Alright TW. I sold the 54" Line-X'd black bed light bar. I currently still have plenty of "L" brackets and some 36" bed light bars in blue and black still available. Drop a note on here or PM me if you're interested. Thanks. Happy New Year to you all.

 

Early morning bump... because I'm up. Hi TW.

 

Bump for a 36" black bed light bar. Selling for $70. PM me. I'm waiting.

This bolt on application will fit any 2nd generation Tacoma with the standard track system each truck comes equipped with. This group buy will only be available for 30 days from the date posted or until entire stock has been depleted. Only a limited number of "Bed Rail Bars" are available.

So why this design…
I didn’t want to lose any bed space or use any cleats to attach a light bar. This design would allow you to slide your cargo against the back wall. The “L” brackets are high enough that you can still use your cleats under the bed rail bar OR you can turn the “L” brackets around and give yourself additional space should your off-road light(s) or bed light(s) be a little larger than normal.
Advantage: You can attach a CB antenna and still have the wire from the stud run under the bar with no interference.
Disadvantage: Your cargo may not be flush against the back wall.
