    MT stuff, RTT stuff, the usual.
    Using 2 quick fists for mine. Didn't know where exactly I wanted it, so just ziptied the QF to the bars with the big ass glad know zip ties. Works well.

    I'd put the shovel in the outside next time, but didn't care enough to change it yet.

    Hoping to get a new bedrack from another member soon, if I do then I'll post new pics, if it doesn't workout to where I can buy it, then I'll prob switch the QFs to the outside

    Lookup Tusk Tube clamps. PERFECT for this! You'll still need quickfists.

    Just keep throwin' money at it.
    I mounted my Hi-Lift on the rail using a Jeep CJ hood mount ($30-ish on ebay). Then drilled a hole and added quick fists to hold an axe or shovel.

    If you look close my shovel and ax are right under the tire. I use the gear ties you can buy at academy, simple cheap and they can be useful if i need them for something else

    Little late to the party but I'd thought I'd share my recent build. Just added hi lift, shovel, axe and full size spare.

    Picture and video.
