Default Custom bike rack (some welding required)

Well I can now haul 2 bikes now, and I don’t have to lay the heckler down in the back any more! I installed 2 Yakima Raptor mounts in the back of my truck.
YAY!

Nice TRD! Now you need to pull those leafs and go full floater in the rear, change those Kings to coil-overs and build a link, you could still even use that killer rack

Along similar lines I spotted this homegrown Canadian rack while in the Chiricahua National Monument in Southeast AZ last year.

Cool rack and freakin' killer place to camp/hike. Highly recommend it!

actually right now buying a home is the best its been in years. values are down, interest rates are down, its finally a BUYERS market not a sellers. im looking to buy a place in the next 6 months. itll be small but its what i can afford. the same condo i was looking at a month ago is $15,000 less now and still on the market. real estate agents are going crazy because so many people are selling their homes right now. why? all those people that took those no interest loans to get into a big house are realizing they cannot afford that balloon payment now and are bailing out.
