Hey Brimy311,

Been out of the office for a while. Anyhow here are the pictures. I took 1" OD tubing and my trusty conduit bender and made this up. Used flat stock for the sides and square 1" in the center. I plan on wraping the corners with some diamond plate, I did this on my rear carrier and it worked great. it is 3x4 and holds a bunch of shit. It mounts to my roll bar when the hard top is off. The second pictures shows the muffler brackets I modified to mount to the cage. good luck. Cost me $25.

thanks, that looks aweosme!!! hope i can make mine look that nice!

it was pretty easy. I started with 2, 10' pieces. When you start bending always measure from the end you arent bending to the end you are so that you always have a starting point. For example: I would measure from the left to the right 8' make my first bend, then measure from the left to the right 5' make my bend until I got all 4 corners bent. That way when you go to bend the next piece it is in the exact same spot. When I layed the two pieces over eachg other they where almost perfect. Dont use my 8' and 5' as the bending number though.

I have done a few racks this way and they turn out nice. Here is my swing out tire carrier with the rack on it. I have it so I can slide it on and off with 2 receiver type setups.
