Now that I have you attention you can check out my rack that I finished a few months ago (just had a chance to upload the photos)


I made it from 2x2 and 1x1 square tube. Attached to my existing 3" round bumper.

features:
-dual 1000lb hinges
-cooler rack
-swing out locks
-spare tire and high lift jack holder
-removable kayak/lumber rack (two parts)
-adding two jerry can mounts
-adding CB antenna
-going to powder coat it down the road

What do you think?

I piled a bunch of firewood between the tire and the cooler, had camping gear and 3 passengers. I thought I was going to pop a wheelie :) The kayak stays on a 75 MPH!

75 was keeping up with traffic on the PCH!

Family cage is on the top of the list. I'll try and take some better pics.

Need to figure out a way to hang two nato cans from the cooler rack.

Did you figure that out by going 80 and it wasn't where you put it when you left;D

Yes, but none that I've taken of you yet. I think to remedy that I need to setup a shoot with you and your bronco at the earliest convenience and convergence of our paths.

I second that! I like the pics of your other friend that you took out near the lake....sweet. Can we expect some more under or on top of the 'cloud'?

Babygirl, there are never enough pics of you on this site... No need to be shy.

Oh, yes, there will be many pictures. Broncos. Picnic tables. Spelunking. Whatever's clever.
