Will the small load bars found in most truck stops work in a cargo van. Gonna go tomorrow and buy a few but wanted to make sure first. I need some the size where it would go wall to wall and top of van to bottom. Thanks !

I would find some left at a loading dock (load bars)and ask if I could have them. Then after you get them, use a 1/2" drill bit and drill the end of the rivet out holding the stud in place the holds the end assembly in the bar.Then cut the bar a little shorter than what you want, and use a 3 -1/2" long bolt x 1'2" thick to hold the bar in place. This whole ordeal will take less than 5 minutes to do.And it is cheap.SAVE THAT MONEY!!!!!

All of my E-channel straps have been free. If you see some laying on the dock ask if you can have them, most docks just want to get rid of them. Probably same with load bars.
