beileve it or not i used iron gate from his driveway a buddy gave me and just ajusted the size... i couldnt use the stock rack cause it stuck way to high so i ran 1 inch sqare tubing down the rails in place of it to mount it,i wish i went 3'' istead of 4'' high but it only cost 20$ for the gate and 4 cans of paintfor the cos its perfect and study,light!!!
