Earlier in this thread he states it's a home-brew rig.. mounts in the hitch receiver. Nice idea, but loosing the rear gate access would be a show stopper for me..

eventually though you will end up seeing that even that is still too much plastic and install these bad boys. Less is more!



Wheres the muffler? I just took my rear bumper off... I see some paint/plasti-dip below the tailgate across the back. but the muffler and the heat shield are going to need some paint? In the pic above, looks like relocation?

Looks great.
I just used the two inner mounts. It easier and it helps when getting cought on rocks. Love the fact that someone copied this look.

This is what I want to do, the evo d-link mounts are a great add, and love the finish touch of the black paint.
