TMS 800 LB Low Profile Extendable Non-Drilling Steel Pickup Truck Bed Rack Sport Bar Rooftop Tent 2 Bar Set (Sportbar, 21'')

I was a little worried getting something on the cheaper side. However, after reading all the reviews it seemed like the integrity of the rack was good, even though some of the reviews complained about the paint and rust. When I received it there was no issue with the paint, although it is a thin layer, I did not want it to rust. So I sanded the bars down and then applied a few layers of spray bed liner. If you don’t mind putting in a little work for the cheap price this rack is actually decent. After I got the tent installed I tested how sturdy it was and it didn’t budge.

Great rack system for our 2003 Nissan Frontier for our many Lowes runs. The only downside is the finish. This was purchased and installed just a few months ago, there are already signs of rust and oxidation. We plan to scrub it down, scuff it up, and coat it in spray on undercoating.

The media could not be loaded. Super easy to install! It fits perfectly in my Toyota Tacoma! When I’m not using them it’s easy to remove them! I’ve had them for 3 years and all weather! Super durable!

CHEAP RACK FROM CHINA , TYPICAL CHINA QUALITY . MISSING HARDWARE . I WOULD'T TRUST IT WITH A ROOF TOP TENT IF YOU ARE GOING OFF ROAD ,PROBABLY OK FOR LADDERS AND 2X4 'S . BOLTED RIGHT UP TO MY 2006 TACOMA'S BED RAILS .

I needed this for a 7+ hour trip for two kayaks. I installed on a 2022 Tacoma short bed and because one of the kayaks is a wide fishing kayak and 11.5’ long, I purchased a cheap j rack for one of them to make sure everything stayed on. Watch a few videos on YouTube for properly tying down a kayak on a roof rack.This rack worked as needed and is easily removed/stored when not in use. So far, I am extremely happy as a Thule or Yakima is over $1000 for just the basic components. I normally have a tonneau cover on the truck so this will only be installed a few times a year. I was skeptical but it made it there and back without issue. On the highway we were going 70+ mph for most of the trip and we took several winding roads in Tennessee. I added pictures to show how I oriented them and how I added foam pipe insulation to half of the cross bar for the kayak. Big chain hardware stores only carry up to 1” pipe insulation, this worked fine for me, just use zip ties.Final opinion, if you are only going to use this a few times a year, save your money and buy this instead. Even if you used it more frequently it seems like it will hold up. Other reviews mention rust on the welds and chipped paint, I’m sure I’ll have some of that too but for the cost difference it is not a huge deal.

Nice sturdy rack. Easy to install/assemble. Holds my kayaks for me and the wife. 80mph on the highway is no problem. Some issues with the paint out of the box, I'll have to touch up. This is the 18 inch size. Downgrading to 3 stars due to rust on incomplete welds. All 4 sides. I applied silicone after wire brushing the rust off. Cheap.

I figured I wouldn't be alone in the search for affordable RTT racks. I mounted these on a Chevy Colorado for use with my 125lb ikamper mini. The welds are solid (obviously not as quality as a custom fabrication shop) but will get the job done. Yes, they arrived slightly scratched as the paint is thin. I threw the supplied (China) bolts and hardware package away and went to my local hardware store for replacements. I really didn't mess around with the rack/ rail mounting system, but instead just drilled and bolted the set-up directly to the bed of my truck. Fitment and adjustability were good to go. My only concern will be wether the set screws are adequate enough for holding the top cross bars down and in place? If not, I'll end up running a tru bolt to fix the issue.I was prepared to take the racks to my local welding shop if the welds looked bad. But over all I am extremely happy with the racks, especially for the price$$$. RTT's are super pricey and I really didn't want to dump another 1k on a rack that was overkill. I am not an 'Overlander', but rather just a guy who likes to camp. Hope this helps.

The rack arrived in a heavy duty package with every component wrapped in bubble warp! Better than some more delicate material I bought on line. Easy to assemble and looks great. Best part it works with the track system built into new TACOMA's.
