Cross Bar Racks

Cross bar racks and load bars carry a roof top tent, traction boards or an awning without the weight, cost and wind noise of a full platform roof rack. Two or three bars across the roof or bed give you mounting points where you need them and nothing where you do not.

Xtrusion Overland XBRS crossbar kits, Leitner Designs and Front Runner load bar kits, Sherpa Equipment Co bars and Eezi-Awn K9 kits cover everything from the 4th Gen Tacoma and Tundra beds to the INEOS Grenadier and Land Cruiser 80 through 250 Series.

The trade-off against a platform is real estate: bars give you rows, not a full deck, so plan what mounts where — and check the dynamic weight rating against your tent — before settling on a two-bar or three-bar setup.
