    First off, thanks to @HMOR_Tim of Heavy Metal Off-Road for a very easy transaction and quick turn around. Tim's awesome communication should be noted since it's a skill lacked by many businesses and individuals. I was updated along the way from payment to shipping and he offers a nice little discount for TW members.

    After scouring the internet for a set of bars that were the right height and look for my desire, I was set on Heavy Metal Off-Road as soon as I found them. Priced at $234.99 and a 15% TW discount, the pricing was attractive and reasonable compared to competitive products... making these bars the ultimate choice in my opinion. The bars are exactly what I was looking for... perfect height, perfect fit, perfect look. They were shipped in tight packaging and all the necessary mounting hardware was included. Bars do ship bare steel so you have total control over finishing them to your look. Overall, they're a great set of bed bars for anyone looking for a set and an awesome alternative to a full bed rack (not to mention at a fraction of the cost of one). I've loaded a roof cargo basket and kayak racks and they fit on these bars as if they were made for them.

    Not enough to list
    Surprised not to see any cross bars. I would think putting something heavy like a tent would cause the bars to swing forward and back during braking and acceleration

    @HMOR_Tim Are you still offering a discount for TW members? I’m planning on buying a set of your loaded 17” bars if you have a set laying around.
