Bike Rack Fab Wanted

Actually, the cheapest and easiest way I found was just regular tiedowns. Get a cheap set form Home Depot for $10 bucks and done. It really is quick, easy, cheap and works great

 

I made a rack out of some flat stock and round bar. With a few straps it works great.

 

On another note, how is your E150 working out? Mine holds air and such but needs to be taken apart and lubed every month or so to keep it nice and smooth

 

I love it. It holds pressure fine and has no leaks. I think it's pretty bullet proof. (At least mine is. I know there are people that love them and hate them.)

 

Cool man. I got mine sorted, just need to find a way to keep it smooth.

Sorry for the thread jack guy's, carry on

 

i like the one above its pretty sweet too if anyone finds one of the ones in my original pick ill pay $600 for it i just like how simple it is

 

$600? Man you got money to burn?? I know you want one like that but $10 for Tie downs or $600 for the rack? It does the same thing. To each their own I guess.

 

ok well we will talk cause i live in colorado pm

how about 2?

 

How much would it be? I'm in NJ. I guess shipping would not be the best thing to do

 

I came across these while looking for something.....

First saw it in my Keystone Automotive catalog.

 

Thats nice how much did it cost you?

 

Great Job. Did you do all the work yourself? How much to make one?

 

Rivet fork mounts to the front rim of your bed...cheap and effective.

 

do you have cleat tie downs and use nylon straps?? thats what i have but the bike seems to fall over no matter how tight i make it.

 

Regular tie downs, not the ratchet ones. I turn the wheel slightly towards the driver side and cinch down. The other option is to make a real simple wheel chock

 

yeah i may do that. i have the hook tie-downs and attach them to the cleats on the bed rails but that isnt working. thanks

 

dakine cover for me too. works great if you still want to have some room in the box for gear. (get the large cover for bigger trucks, covers the entire tailgate)
