I found mine on craigslist for 25 bucks. It was a little short, so I cut it in half and extended it.

Yeah, I was pretty excited when I found it. Turned out to be a really good rack after I extended it. There are some good deals on CL every now and then, just gotta be patient.

Mine....Home built by me. Some pictures of the build in my albums.
It doesn't look as tall and big now as I have 34" tires and working on bumpers and trimming fenders.
