Review on πŸ”’ Secure and Versatile: Keeper 05059 Ratcheting Cargo Bar, Adjustable 40"-70 by James Pernell

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Couldn't take it, wouldn't stay!

I really wanted to like this bar but it gave me problems from day one. The teeth in the ratchet are too far apart so I installed it and felt like it needed another click to get it nice and tight but I couldn't get it to move to the next tooth! So that's how I would drive it and sure enough it would be 2 times out of 3 in the back of my truck. In the end the bar gave up the fight and buckled in the middle as I fell hard and the load shifted (and passed out right after coming back!). I can't recommend this bar...at least it wasn't too expensive. I had it in a 2016 Silverado with a plastic bed liner, for what it's worth.
