UNIVERSAL Bed Rack

Universal Bed Rack
The Universal Samson bed rack has a very innovative telescopic design that allows it to fit in most mini to full-sized truck beds. This feature also allows it to fit in most vans. We installed one in a Ford Econoline by bolting it directly to the back of the front passenger bench seat. The seat has a heavy-duty steal frame so it is very solid. It required drilling two holes on each side of the rack and tapping the seat frame. We located the right side wheel chuck so the bike could go straight in and the left side chuck turns the wheel allowing two bikes to fit nicely by overlapping the handlebars. The Universal rack is a very well built unit made of anodized 7005 aluminum.

Thats a nice looking rack and I'm sure it does the job that it was designed to do. But why would you go thru the effort of drilling and tapping your seat when Boltiton has a rack system that is a tool free system that installs in 5 min.
