Tried to figure out how to take a one piece 8 foot surf rod to my fav beach...IN THE VAN ....sooo bought a 2 piece 8 foot and found a great place to store it safely ........make it slide out of the bumper ............. ....pics attached
The ends are the plastic caps that were on the RHS steel bar ..i just put a handle on them and a bolt and wing nut to hold it there...works a treatNice work. Did you have to fold up that slide or did you find something that fits?
We have a lot in common RustyWhat a great idea. I bet you were sitting back having a cold one and admiring the van then, "bing" I will put my rod inside the rear bumper. That's gold!
