What kind of control do you need on the bar? Does it have to move at different speeds at different times, or can it always move at the same configured speed? Does it have to stop in the middle of its travel, or can it always move fully to one end of the other before stopping? Do you want it to extend when a joystick button is pressed and return when the button is released, or do you want it to extend based on one button and return based on a different button? How far do you want the bar to move?
The answers to these questions might point to a solution you aren't thinking of: use a pneumatic cylinder instead of a motor.
