Default Lund cargo carrier/bike rack

I see a lot of threads for bike racks but none specifically for cargo carrier bike racks, so I figured I would start this one.
This is a Lund 601010 cargo carrier with 2 Lund 601009 bike attachments. I made the main support piece a little longer an stronger with a 36" piece of 2x2 I had laying around. I also added the trailer wiring harness that plugs in to the Jeeps wiring harness so that my brakes and turn signals are easily seen even when it is loaded up with my bikes. I also added a couple of anti wobble devices and it is sturdy!!! I like this route better than an actual bike carrier because it will accomodate all types of bikes and you don't need special attachments.

Don't let all of the extra strapping scare you, I just don't have shorter ratchet straps yet.

Default Have this

Yep have the same set up. Works well. I had to get a bike carrier though because the kids grew up and we all have big bikes now. Still use it for cargo on trips though.
