    It should mount OK if it uses standard Yakima mounts like the one pictured. Just pop the tabs and the mounts will fit a rectangular bar.

    I'm confused...when I look at fasttracktacks description of the C channel attachment I see a picture of this:

    This will not fit my 2010 Tacoma. I scoured their website but could not find an attachment system that works on my truck.

    I'd like to know the exact part #'s of the attachments that they sold you. I don't want to make the same mistakes.

    When I bought mine last year I had to call fast track racks to get the correct PN and place the order. They were real helpful and go the orger in for me.

    **EDIT: THE DIMENSIONS DON'T WORK OUT, DON'T USE THIS BELOW ***

    I'm updating the thread with my solution to this problem still in progress. Please see photo and Amazon parts list. I haven't yet mounted this to the bed rails, but will get to it this weekend.

    https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07D5VDFX7

    https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0C81B3BCM

    https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CD6T8HQY

    The only unknown is the vertical dimension... When this all gets installed, does the bar sit on top of the bed side? I think it will.

    One consideration is that it would be helpful to add a piece of metal or plastic in before the 1/2" screw is screwed into the 1/2" lifting eye nut as a set to pinch the bar into place. The 1/2" cap end screw doesn't pin down the bar.

    The above ended up not working and I'm pursuing a custom cut OSH Cut set of 4 brackets 3/8" thick and shaft collars to hold the bars in place. This should be a much cleaner install.

    Got OSHcut to cut these for me.
    Instead of a set screw thru the soft aluminum, I used shaft collars for additional strength off road. Note, while Yakima states the diameter of their bars is 1 1/8", that's the diameter of the metal, not the included coating (unfortunately). I had to strip the coating from the bars to get the shaft collars to mount. Weight of the bar rests on the side of the bed due to the slotting at the t-nut.

    Somewhere on here I found a place that makes rain gutter brackets that attach to the bed rail system. This is the best pic I have right now. I have it over a bed cover and pretty much only use it now for ski season.
