Erikson Cargo Control Bar Demonstration - Video

This is a cargo control bar, this part is intended to go between the two walls of your pickup truck bed to keep things from moving front to rear. This is a one size fits all and we will demonstrate how this works. As you can see there are buttons on the cargo bar to keep it at a specified distance. Basically they just pinch down and you pull apart or push together as needed. You can see it pops into the next hole and you do that all the way down to the width that you desire. Once you have the width you need, just install it between the bed rails. Basically you can stick it anywhere you have a flat solid surface. We are going against the bed liner but in this case the steel is right behind the bed liner so it will not be a big deal, we will just sandwich it. For the last bit of it we twist it to be as tight as we need it. Not only does the expanding length keep it in place, it also has very generous rubber feet to keep it from going anywhere. Whether it is a plastic bed liner or steel of the truck. This design can be expanded anywhere you can put it in the middle of the truck, down low up high, it just depends on what item you have in the truck and where you need the strength to hold it back at. There you have it for part # 08910 from Erikson. more
