    Wish the one I built for myself looked this good

    Here is a pic of a cargo carrier I built for a friend of mine. It looks a lot better than the one I build t for myself.

    Srubrn,

    Is that bolted to the vehicle frame on each side or a single receiver hitch mount? Nice work.

    Bob,

    I mounted it to two reciever hitches I made that bolt directly to the outside of the frame. It slides in and uses hitch pins.

    Old Man Stick, Rocky is too cheap to buy end caps. Bet he doesn't know that he can get free samples here:

    AAhhh...you guys are sharp! Now you know me well enough that if there was an uncapped end, there must be a purpose for it!

    That is the storage place for the exhaust pipe for my generator. You see, we go to dog shows and the caboose, as I call it, was to carry my generator, and you can't have exhaust gasses flowing onto the ground gassing your neighbors $5000 doggie. So the pipe carries the gasses up out of harms way.
