I am looking to mount a shovel and a HiLift jack on my rack and I was wondering if anyone had a write-up on how they made there's??? I can't justify paying $250 + shipping for the mounts I need from Trek Outfitters.
Also, has anyone made a light guard for the SD rack or now of a place to get one cheaper than $350? Here is a link to the ones that Trek sells - http://www.trekoutfitters.com/extra/...s/lightbar.htm. I really like the looks and the functionality of the riser tabs and CB mount that is already one this but $350 just seems high...
I got some old used Pelican cases, couple really hard plastic Farner Bocken boxes as well, and 2- 12 gallon pontoon gas tanks with a quick release pump system for free this weekend. Then out of the blue my grandpa asked me if I want "this old jack" and I asked well what is it. He said he thinks its for tractors and is red. Well come to find out its not old at all and its a HiLift brand jack he got in a lot he bought at auction.
Getting all this stuff got me thinking "what am I missing up there"? So let me know if anyone has any advise. THANKS

I have carried some homemade ones before too in another truck but I never actually used them. I am assuming that here in Iowa, once I get the winch on, I will not need them.

For mounting doodads, you might be able to use some of the Quick Fist Clamps? Seems like we could figure out a way to make some work. I just saw a picture today on Facebook of Justin's (Lucky8) Rover with a couple of these mounted on the hood holding a winch anchor thingamajigger.
Just a thought...

PERFECT - dnorrell has made my day - I knew there was something like this, I just couldn't remember where/what I had seen.
Thanks man-
