Specs:
The Patrol bike rack lets you transport 2 bikes in your truck bed. The telescoping aluminum bar fits any size truck, and it adjusts in small increments to fit perfectly on your truck-bed side rails. You can carry bikes with 9-mm quick-release skewers and 15-mm thru-axle forks, lock each bike fork to the rack, and lock the rack to your truck.
Hassle-Free Bike Mounting
This rack includes 2 fork blocks with locking 9-mm quick-release skewers. The fork blocks are compatible with bikes that have 9-mm skewers as well as 15-mm thru-axle forks. They will also accept 20-mm thru-axle forks with an adapter (S64715 - sold separately).
Bikes easily install on the rack. Simply place your bikes' forks onto the fork block skewers, tighten the nuts, and close the cam-action levers. Fork mounts can be repositioned along the telescoping bar to ensure proper bike spacing.
More bikes can be added with additional fork-mount blocks (S64703 - sold separately). The rack will hold a total of 4 road bikes or 3 mountain bikes.
Easy Truck-Bed Installation
Easily install the carrier between your truck-bed side rails. Open the cam lever to release the telescoping arm. Pull the arm out until the end pads rest against your side rails, and then use the micro adjustment knob to ensure a tight fit. You can also use the pre-drilled holes in each end pad to bolt the carrier onto your truck-bed side rails.
Locking Design
To deter theft, lock each bike to the rack with the included quick-release skewers. You can also secure the rack to your truck with the locking macro adjustment cam lever and micro adjustment knob.

The quality of the rack is fantastic. Sadly the keys do not work on the Locking Quick Release Skewers. I've contacted Swagman about this and am waiting for a response.
Quite pleased with nearly everything regarding this rack. Setup was super easy right out of the box, loved that I didn't need any tools. Bikes feel very secure and I haven't noticed any shifting or movement while driving around. My only complaint is that it's possible for someone to remove (or steal) the locking skewers when there's no bike attached just by unscrewing the endcap. Even if the handle is locked in place, just unscrew the endcap and you can remove the whole locking mechanism. So...works fantastic when there's a bike to be hauled, but makes me uncomfortable when I just park the truck and walk away. Works great, could just be a bit more secure.
rack tends to work itself loose from bed walls during long trips. had to strap down with ratchet straps to keep from moving. locks only work at a specific angle -- wish the manual had said this because we couldn't lock our bikes until figuring it out.
My wife and I have used the rack a number of times over the last year and it works really well. Easy to install and remove each time. Holds our bikes securely even with the tonneau cover trays on the bed sides.
Excellent Customer service and help for this product. Thank you Carol and Neil your the best.
Really well made and super simple to install. I can confirm that it does fit a 2019 Ford Ranger, which is what I have.
Garbage. You have been warned.
