How did u hang ur weights?

Postby moparman87 » Mon Feb 21, 2011 11:07 pm

Getting ready to fab up my weight rack but was wondering if anyone had any pics or links to some pics that i could get some ideas on. Was thinking of making half of it removable or just making a new HD bumper and integrating it into that somehow. Shoot me some pics and ideas if ya got em. Just brainstorming right now. THANKS

Ya it only slides in one way, has a washer welded on one end so it can't go all the way through and a pin in the other end.
