Truck Sport Bars, Bed Bars, and Chase Racks
You have heard about bull bars and bed rails, but what about truck bed bars? Mounted across the back of the cab or spanning the bed rails, a sport bar, bed bar, or chase rack gives any pickup a more commanding, finished appearance while delivering real functional benefits. Many are also compatible with tonneau covers.

Measuring your bed
Put a tape measure inside the bed, from the inside of the bulkhead (front wall) to the inside of the closed tailgate. Round to the nearest inch — a 69" measurement is a 5'8" bed.
Bed length is measured inside the box, not along the outside of the truck.

What a Sport Bar Actually Does for Your Truck
The visual impact of a sport bar is obvious, but the benefits go deeper than aesthetics. These structures connect the two sides of your truck bed together, adding rigidity to the bed and giving the rear of the truck a more intentional, built-out appearance. In a rollover event, a properly installed bed bar can provide an additional layer of protection, and connecting the sides of your pickup together gives you more control when making tight turns.
Chase racks, another common name for the same category of product, are popular in off-road communities where rear visibility and lighting at elevation matter. By mounting a chase rack behind the cab, you gain a dedicated elevated platform for lights, cameras, flags, or other gear that needs to sit high on the vehicle.
Sport Bars with Integrated LED Lighting
Many bed bars are available with, or are compatible with, mounted LED light bars. These integrated lighting options shine a powerful spread of light behind and around the vehicle, improving visibility in low-light conditions, on trails, at work sites, and in severe weather. Truck bed light bars mounted on sport bar structures sit at an ideal height to illuminate a wide area without blinding oncoming traffic when aimed correctly. For truck owners who already run a front-mounted light bar, a sport bar with rear LEDs completes the setup.
Confirmed Fitment
Sport bars and chase racks are designed for specific vehicle models and bed configurations. H&H carries them from Go Rhino, N-FAB, and Fab Fours. Use the Year/Make/Model selector on this page to filter results to products confirmed to fit your truck. Many sport bar styles are also compatible with tonneau covers, so you can run both on the same truck without conflict.
Common Questions
What is the difference between a sport bar and a chase rack?
The terms are often used interchangeably. A sport bar typically refers to a single-bar or multi-bar structure that arches over the bed just behind the cab for a styled appearance. A chase rack is a term more common in off-road and racing contexts for a similar structure designed to mount lights or gear at elevation on the rear of the vehicle. Both serve overlapping purposes.
Do truck sport bars come with LED lights?
Many sport bar and chase rack options are available with integrated LED light bars or are designed to accept aftermarket LED lighting. These setups provide powerful illumination for off-road trails, work sites, and driving in low-visibility conditions. Check individual product listings to see which models include lights and which are light-ready for a separate installation.
Are sport bars compatible with tonneau covers?
Many sport bar styles are designed to be compatible with tonneau covers, particularly roll-up and folding styles that do not extend over the front of the bed. Compatibility depends on both the specific sport bar and the specific tonneau cover. If you plan to run both, contact H&H to confirm they work together on your truck.
Do sport bars provide rollover protection?
Sport bars add structural reinforcement across the rear of the truck cab and can provide an additional layer of protection in a rollover event. However, they are not designed or certified as full roll cages or safety rollover protection systems. Owners who want certified rollover protection should consult the specific safety ratings of any product they are considering.
What finish options are available for truck sport bars?
Sport bars are available in a range of finishes depending on the brand and model. Common options include polished stainless steel, black powder coat, and textured matte black. N-FAB and Go Rhino both offer multiple finish options across their lineups.
