    Just bought a 2016 quicksand TRD sport.

    Can someone recommend the best mounts for carrying road bikes. Up too three... Is the voodoo the best?

    image.jpg I just bought a 2x6 cut it to length in the bed and mounted the cleats for my bikes. I would think a third bike would easily fit.

    Thanks. How did you mount it to the bed liner?

    It just sits there. There's a notch in the bed for as big as a 2x8 if you wanted to have that wide of a piece of wood. I know there's other options but this was cheap and easily removable.

    I'd much rather have my mounts attached to the front rail. Especially in case of hard braking or have to swerve to miss something in the road.

    Hey, don't get me wrong. Good to know something works. It's just a personal preference and I like my stuff lashed down tight. You bikes fit with the tailgate up?

    Yeah. Long bed. The weight on a road bike is designed to sit over the front handle bars so the bikes don't move.

    Get a 2nd gen bed rail that goes to the back of the cab, some bike fork clamps. Basically the same setup as a 2nd gen but on a 3rd gen. That's what I am working on but unfortunately my dealer don't sell just 1 bed rail but all 3! So I have to find a used one somehow.

    I got the OEM Bed Rail from Amazon and two locking Rockymount's that go into rail. Plenty of room for more bikes I have two. It's great because it's OEM and it's not in the way, the fact that it locks is awesome.

    Do most of your bikes fit in the short bed, or you guys need long bed for bikes?

    My road bikes would fit in a sb but my motorcycle will not. That was one of my determining factors

    Bikes fit fine with Tailgate closed. No worries there.
