First Mod

Since im a cyclist, at races I would always see people with pickups pull up with the bike mounted in the bed. So when I bought my ranger I always wanted the in-bed mount.

So for my first mod I installed the Bracket.

Nice first mod! I cycle a bit as well but for me it wasn't practical to take up bed space so I have a roof rack for the bikes. Looks good on your truck.

Nicely done. The guy I brought my truck from did a lot of cycling and what he did was rune a piece of 2x4 across the bed and attached the bike mount to that so as not to have to drill into the bed itself. But what you've done works just as well and should be functional for years.
