Ratcheting Cargo Bars

[The Critic]

I am in the market for a ratcheting cargo bar (or two) for my truck - any recommendations?

This one was suggested on another forum:

And then there are the HF options, which are more affordable.

I’ve had a cheap one that spins tight for about 25 years. Works fine.

I grabbed one in Home Depot shortly after getting my truck. It lives in the bed, regardless of it having a cover on it.

Looks like this, maybe it's the same one. It wasn't very expensive.

I have the same bar. Bought it back in '96. Money well spent. OP I highly recommend this one

I have two of the cheap Harbor Freight ones. The worked much better than I expected them too.

I didn’t even know these existed. Looks like a good alternative to a ratchet strap when the need arises. Ill have to buy one soon

I'm hesitant to use one due to aluminum bed. Using plank instead, but of course it isn't adjustable.
