DIY Low Profile Bed Rack

I like to see something out my back window besides two 37" tires so that shot the idea of simply buying one. My dad and I built this a while back and I am just now looking to install it after getting the Linex done.

I'm happy with how the two 37s just barely sick up over the side of the bed. Visibility is still good out of the back window. I'm about to mount everything and thought I'd see if you guys find any issues before I start drilling holes. So what do you think?

Rack is 2" mild steel with Linex.
2x steel jerry cans and holders all Linex'd
Aluminum jack
2 fat 50 cal mounts + 4 cans

i like it, looks sweet man

I like it alot!

DId you linex the gas cans? Because thats rad if you did...

and if so, you should linex the ammo cans too.


also, I dont see room for a beer cooler with the configuration you have and that concerns me... LOL

Yes, and the ammo boxes might be next.

The beer is in the back seat so I can reach it while driving.

I like the low-pro look of the spares laying down. Looks great so far!

Done. Leaving room in the back for a cargo box or cooler depending on the situation.

Welp now that your all done drillin holes here I come with "hey why don't ya use the bed bolts to hold er down"
Those tires un mounted/un aired up will be alot lower than when ya got rims on em and air em up. I'm sure you already thought of that
