    Not possible to have the rack full with bikes and the tailgate down. You may be able to tilt the rack down and clear the tailgate with bikes loaded but I haven't tried that. You can lower the tailgate fully without the bikes in the rack and it clears. In fact clearance is so tight with the bikes in the rack, opening the tailgate to open my bed cover gets real tricky with hitting the pedals.

    1UP is still a badass rack, I love mine.

    Currently just in prototype phase, but this is my setup. Holds two bikes. Overflow goes on a T2/T4 pro. I need to make a rakattach copy (only better) for the T2/T4

    I think I bought six 8 foot 2x6s and some angle brackets and screws. Total about $70CAD. Just need to paint it in spring once it warms up.

    I have the slots set up from left to right for 5", 2.4", 5", 2.25" and 5" tires. It should fit 3 bikes at the time and I still use a cinch strap to hold the bikes down. Keeps them fairly free from crud and slush in winter. For camping or overnight trips when I need bed for gear, I use Swagman XTC-4 hitch rack.

    I understand that comment....when I was researching other guy's material lists for similar pvc racks....I couldn't believe how cheap their costs were....I don't know why Canadian retail outlets charge so much for essentially the same product.

    I could believe that because :canada:

    I thought mine would be under $50 for sure and ended up being about $70 and still not even painted.

    Anyone have a solution that would allow me to utilize these two Yakima Frontloaders I have? I'd really like to use them on a rack in the truck bed where they'd sit even with the top of the bed, if that makes sense.

    Curious to see how you secured the real wheel @ramirez810 ? Corner to corner works great.

    i already spent $70 on the locking fork mount that i have (rocky mount). I'm just getting tired of taking the front wheel off for rides where i'm not leaving my bike in the truck unattended. so much easier to just throw the bike in the bed. I have a new bike on order that i dont want sliding around the bed.

    Our XRXS bars might be a better fit for you. They're incredibly stiff and make a nice platform for mounting fork mounts.
