Honey Badger Part 5

Bed Bars

To make the Honey Badger have a uniquely different profile than other trucks on the road, we decided to go with Go Rhino!’s bed bar. This bed bar was a great choice because the black powder coat finish fit perfectly with the color scheme of the truck.

The best part of the bed bars is the reaction it receives from people.

“It’s not something that you usually see on duallies,” admits Searle. “I see a lot of diesel drivers taking a double-take at the truck.”

Installation of the bars in the bed of the truck was simple and easy, thanks to the bolt-together design that leaves no exposed welds. Having assembled it outside of the truck on the floor, we lifted it into the bed where we wanted it, marked the drill holes and moved it out of the way. After having drilled the bolt holes, we moved it back into position and secured it with the proper bolts.

The provided plastic gaskets to eliminate metal-to-metal contact and the 5-year warranty were also nice touches.
