Made another Mikeybilt Creation. Used some Uni-strut/Super-strut, hardware and an old wagon basket to make a trail basket for the OR FAB Tire Carrier. Came out really well and finished it off after fitment with a few coats of bedliner. I am pretty stoked with it. I can hold my small ice chest, gas BBQ, chairs and other lighter items. The Struts have strong tensile strength and I used grade 5/8 hardware.

This will make for some needed room on my Death Valley Overland trip soon!

Will mount tomorrow once dry and post more pics. I also plan to install my backup camera on it.

Looks good. We Jeeper guys gotta grab space where we can. Just finished up a custom setup for my tire carrier too.
 
Got the Trail Rack mounted and used it this weekend on an overnight camp trip. Works great and is nice to have some extra room!
