Rod rack
Chris I do not know if you saw the one on the front of my truck when I was over. Mine is a cooler holder, 128 qt. Second vehicle it has been on. I am sure you could mount a rod holder the same way. It has a mount bolted to the truck, 2 tubes, and then you just slide the cooler rack into the two tubes and use pins to secure. That way when you don't want the thing on the front of your truck you slide it off and store it. Only thing left is the mount, unseen. A guy in Lakeville did it for me. He is a member of the MBBA and has done many. He works at the dump, but has a shop on Rt. 18. I will ask him if he still does that stuff when I go to the dump this week. Not sure if you want to go to Lakeville or not. Paul

Things done at the last possible minute are done with the greatest possible information. Procrastination is, therefore, the most efficient means of doing things.

If so, he makes some real nice stuff.

Karl I am not sure of the name, even though I go by it several times a day.  He is on Rt. 18 in Lakeville. He also does conversions of campers, big things like Winnebago's, to 4 wheel drive for the beach. Pretty sure he is a MBBA member like us. I am sure you probably know him. He works for the town of Lakeville now but still does the welding stuff on the side . He does do some nice stuff too. Paul |
